PATHFINDER AWL
The stringing machine includes the Path-
finder stringing awl which creates a path-
way between and around strings to make
inserting a string through tight grommets
easier and quicker.
Insert the awl through the grommet hole in the
same manner as for traditional awls. The
Pathfinder awl must be in the closed position
before insertion.
Once the awl is inserted, pull the handle of
the awl outward while holding the tip section
in place, leaving the outer sheath in the
grommet hole.
Insert the end of the string into the center of
the sheath.
While holding pressure on the string, slowly
pull the sheath out of the grommet hole to
leave the end of the string exposed.
