STRINGING THE FRAME

Setting Tension

The drop weight is of a two piece design.

When assembled, it will accommodate ten-

sions from 20 to 90 lbs. For tensions from 8

to 20 lbs., remove the 5mm bolt on the face of

the drop weight, and use the smaller portion

of the weight as described above.
Note: Tensions above 77lbs. require removal

of the drop weight bar end cap.

To set the stringing tension, loosen the

locking knob on the side of the drop weight.

Slide the weight in the appropriate direction

until the face closest to the string gripper is

indexed with the desired tension mark on

the tension bar.

Starting the Main Strings

To begin stringing the main strings, count the

number of holes at the throat of the frame,

which will determine the starting point. For

racquets with 4 or 8 holes at the throat,

the main strings will begin at the head. For

racquets with 2 or 6 holes at the throat, the

main strings will begin at the throat.
Thread the two ends of the string through

the two center grommet holes at the head

or throat as determined in the previous

step. Route the strings through the opposite

center holes.
