MAINTENANCE & ADJUSTMENTS
Adjusting the Tensioner Brake
After stringing many racquets, the brake
of the tensioner may need to be adjusted.
With the brake lever engaged in the latch,
insert the 5mm allen wrench into the bolt (A)
located at the base of the brake lever. It can be
accessed through the hole on the face of the
tensioner cover (above the ‘GAMMA’ logo).
Note:
The tensioner cover does not need to
be removed for the adjustment. The cover
has been removed in the pictures for illustra-
tion purposes.
To tighten the braking mechanism, turn the
set screw (A) counter clockwise by about 1/8
turn. Re-tighten the allen screw (B) on the
back side of the tensioner frame and check
for brake tightness. The tensioner should
move freely along the track with the brake
lever engaged and should hold tension with
the brake lever released. If more adjustment
is needed, repeat steps above until properly
adjusted.
While holding the 5mm brake lever adjust-
ment bolt (A), loosen the hex bolt (B) located
on the back side of the tensioner frame with
the 4 mm allen wrench.
Note:
The hex bolt should only be loosened
and must not be completely removed.
