GAMMA 5003 STRINGING MACHINE (Issue 3 - December 14, 2000) - Manual (Page 8)

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Installing the Tensioner
Remove the button head screw and washer located at
the end of the tensioner bar with the 3 mm hex wrench
provided. Slide the tensioner onto the bar, being careful
to align the bar with all of the bearings and the drive gear
with the gear track. Replace the button head screw and
washer in the end of the tensioner bar.
Setting the Gripper Jaw Spacing
The gripper jaws of the 6004 tensioner are adjustable to
accomodate varying string gauges.
If the string slips through the gripper jaws while pulling
tension, rotate the gripper jaw adjustment screw counter-
clockwise.
If the string is damaged while pulling tension, rotate the
gripper jaw adjustment screw clockwise.
The jaws will be properly adjusted when there is enough
pressure to securely grip the string without causing
damage to the string.
