CARE & CLEANING

With time and use, the clamping surfaces of your machine may become oily or dirty and result

in string or clamp slippage while stringing. Periodic cleaning of the String Clamps and String

Gripper is recommended. Knife sharpening stones work well for cleaning the diamond coated

string clamping surfaces. Cleaning with a solvent such as isopropyl alcohol and a mild abrasive

tool such as a toothbrush also works well to remove oily or greasy build up.

PROBLEM

SOLUTION

String slips in clamps

- Adjust gap between clamp jaws
- Clean clamp jaws

String slips in gripper
