Step 3: Take the drop weight knob and insert into the hole of drop weight.
In case of stringing badintonrackets you have to separate the weight and use just
the one with the drop weight knob inside.
Step 5: Take the 5m/m l-shaped wrench to adjust the screw for appropriate
position.
2. Stringing the frame
Step 2: Make adjustments by turning the fine adjustment knobs. The fit
should be snug. Turn the mounting arm adjustment knobs so that the angled
frame supports fit up against the frame. The fit should be snug, but use caution.
NOTE: Over-tightening can cause premature stress on the frame.
Step 4: Do not position the drop
weight knob on the side of the
tension bar sticker. Fix it on the
opposite side.
Step 1: Insert the angle frame
supports into the appropriate slots
located on the end of the mounting
arms. The two slots are designed to
accommodate most racquets.
For stringing badminton rackets,
you have to turn all 4 frame
supports 180°.

Step 3: Correct the location of the knob and drop weight.
The required stringing weight is indicated on the scale below the weight on the
machine side.
Step 5: After the tension bar is in horizontal position the string is pulled with
the right tension. Secure the string with the clamp. Then push the latch
downward and move the tension bar upward to be able to release the string from
the string gripper. Attention: if you do not push down the latch it is impossible
to release the string.
3. Clamp base adjustment
Locate the black cap on the
backside of the black base.
Carefully pull it off.
Turn the swivel base so that the
outer port is aligned with the
inner port. Take the 3m/m l-
shaped wrench and insert into
the internal adjustment screw.
Turn clockwise to increase
tension. The ideal locking
position for the lever should be
down the center of the swivel
base

4. Preparation of Stringing
Clamps:
Please note that the black O-ring is an essential part of the clamps. Please do
not remove this under any circumstances!
Clamp base:
You must first lift the clamp and fix the string. Then the lever of the base clamp
can be closed to fix the base on the bar. To unlock the base, simply open and
drop the clamps.
To clamp the string, squeeze the toggle to
close.
To release the string, pull the toggle to
open
To tighten, turn the dial clockwise. To
loosen, turn the dial counter-clockwise.
NOTE: Before stringing a racquet, the
tension on the string clamp has to be
adjusted in accordance with the type of
string gauge being used. If the string is of
a thin gauge (16L 17 18) then the string
clamp may need to be tightened. If the
string gauge is thick (15 15L16) then the
string clamp may need to be loosened.
