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 hex wrench into the set
screw (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
illustration purposes.
To tighten the braking mechanism, turn the
set screw (A) counter clockwise by about 1/8
turn. Re-tighten the bolt (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 set screw (A), loosen the bolt (B) located
on the back side of the tensioner frame with
the 4 mm hex wrench.
Note: Bolt (B) should only be loosened and
should not be completely removed.
