Base Leg Assembly

TheGAMMA5002stringing machineusesa

four leg base design. The legs must be

assembled to the support post before use.

Remove the lower column support from the

carton.Thisis thelargerofthetwopostsand

has the GAMMA label.

Note: For illustration purposes, the support

column has been painted white for these

instructions.

Align the holes in the leg flange with the

matching holes in the lower column support

post. Secure the leg with one FLAT HEAD

cap screw through the upper hole, and one

SOCKET HEAD cap screw through the bot-

tomhole.Repeatthisprocedureforthethree

Upper Column Support Assembly

Insert the upper column support into the

lower column support / base leg assembly.

ASSEMBLYINSTRUCTIONS

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS

Fixed Clamp Installation

To install the clamps, remove the winged

lock knob to separate the knob from the

lower guide bushing. Be careful not to lose

thethrustbearingcomponentslocatedinthe

center recess of the knob.

Align the clamp base with the clamp slot of

the turntable base. Insert the lower guide

bushing into the clamp from the bottom of

the turntable making sure to engage the

guide with the clamp slot.

Installing the Frame Support Posts

The GAMMA 5002 support post assemblies

are precision aligned at the factory and are

marked for proper installation on the turn-

table.

Install the support post with the dot on its

base to an identical dot on the turntable.

Align the threaded hole in the bottom of the

frame support post with the slot in the turn-

table. Screw the lever lock bolt with washer

into the bottom of the support post and

tighten gently.Position the washer with the

rounded edge toward the turntable. Repeat

procedure on the opposite side of the turntable.

Installing the Turntable

The turntable is located on top of the foam

packing in the the shipping carton.

Insertthecenterpostoftheturntableintothe

bushing located in the top of the tensioner

bar post.

ASSEMBLYINSTRUCTIONS

Locking the Turntable

The turntable may be locked in any position.

The turntable winged lock knob is packed

separately in the accessory polybag. Install

the lock knob into the threaded hole located

on the side of the tensioner bar post.

Rotate the knob clockwise to lock the turn-

table, and counter-clockwise to release the

turntable.

Place the load bushing into the top of the

clamp base mating it to the lower guide

bushing. After checking that the thrust bear-

ing is positioned correctly in the base of the

winged lock knob, screw the knob into the

base bushing until fully seated.

The post of the string clamp head and tube

of the string clamp base are treated with

grease to provide protection against corro-

sion during shipping. Remove any exces-

sive grease with a clean cloth prior to use.

The post and tube may also be cleaned with

isopropyl alcohol. After this type of thorough

cleaning, the post and tube should be treated with a light coating of machine oil to protect the

surfaces against corrosion and to ensure smooth operation.

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.

MOUNTING THE FRAME

Adjusting the Frame Support Posts

Place the racquet frame over the center

posts and onto the frame support. Loosen

theleverlock bolt on one support post. Slide

the post outward until the center support of

the racquet support slide is positioned near

the inside surface of the racquet frame.

Securely tighten the lever lock bolt.

Adjust the opposite post using the same

procedure.

Caution: To avoid racquet damage, the cen-

terpostsshouldnotcontacttheracquetprior

to fixing the support posts.

Adjusting the Frame Shoulder Supports

Being sure the shoulder supports are free to

swivel in thier mountings, simultaneously

rotatetheshouldersupportadjustmentknobs

clockwiseuntilbothshouldersupportsgently

and squarely contact the frame.

Tighten the Frame Support Slides at the

head and throat of the racquet until they

gently contact the frame between the two

center main string grommets.

Securing the Frame

Lock the shoulder supports in position by

turning the knob at the base clockwise.

Repeat the adjustment procedure for the

remaining support post.

Re-tighten all of the frame supports in the

same order as before.

Do not overtighten any of the supports as

racquet damage may occur.

The supports should be tightened to the

point where the racquet frame will not move

inthe mounting system when the handle is grasped and attempts are madeto move it. Should

any supports lose contact with the frame while stringing, they should be re-tightened.

Setting Tension

TheGAMMA5002utilizesarotaryadjusting

knob along with a linear tension scale to

indicate the tension setting. The scale is

dividedinto3lbincrementsandeach1/3turn

of the tension knob changes tension by 1 lb.

Tosetthedesiredtension,rotatethetension

knob and align the mark on the spring guide

withthedesired tension setting onthescale.

Whenthe“0”markontheknobalignswiththe

line on the knob support the tension will be

that indicated on the scale. To increase ten-

sionby 1or 2lbsturntheknobcounterclock-

wise until the “1” or “2” mark on the knob

aligns with the line on the knob support. To decrease tension by 1 or 2 lbs, turn the knob

clockwise until the “2” or “1” mark on the knob aligns with the line on the knob support.

STRINGING THE FRAME

Fixed Clamp Operation - Step 1

ThefixedclampsfortheGAMMA5002areof

a dual action design. The string clamp and

the clamp base operate independently of

one another.

To clamp a string, lift the clamp head and

place the string between the jaws. Depress

the clamp head lever to secure the string.

The clamping pressure applied to the string

shouldbeadjustedtoprovidesufficientpres-

sure to secure the string when subjected to

the desired pulling tension. The diamond

coated gripper plates provide for increased

friction between the clamps and the string to allow for reduced clamping pressure while

securing and holding the string under tension.

Tensioner Travel Stop

Topreventcontactbetweenthetensionhead

and the racquet and/or turntable, a stop

screw is located about midpoint along the

tensioner bar below the gear track. In the

eventthetensionheadmustbemovedcloser

to the racquet, turn the stop screw counter-

clockwisewiththe5mmhexwrenchuntilthe

end of the stop screw no longer protrudes

beyond the surface of the tensioner bar. To

re-engage the stop, simply turn the stop

screw clockwise until the screw is seated

against the tensioner bar.

Travel Stop

STRINGING THE FRAME

Pulling Tension

Wrap theloosesectionofstringoncearound

theroller guideandinsertthestring between

the diamoind dust coated string gripper

plates. Pull the string perpendicular to the

gripper plates while slowly rotating the

tensioner crank clockwise until the brake

lever pops out of the latching block. The

string is now tensioned and can be clamped

in place with the remaining fixed clamp.

Repeattheabovestepsuntilallmainstrings

are installed. Tie off ends of main strings as

per racquet manufacturers recommenda-

tions.

Fixed Clamp Operation - Step 2

Rotate the winged lock knob clockwise to

secure the clamp base to the turntable.

Reverse the clamping procedure to unlock

the string clamp.

The winged lock knob should be tightened

enough to prevent clamp base slippage on

the turntable, when the desired tension is

placed on the string. To go from the loose

position to the clamped position and back,

generally requires about 1/2 to 3/4 quarters

of a turn. Although when stringing at ex-

tremely high tensions, additional tightness may be required. Note: If the string slips in the

string clamp while tensioning, adjust the gap between the clamp jaws as per the

instructions on page 11.

Clamping the First Main String

To begin stringing the main strings, thread

the two ends of the string through the two

center holes at the appropriate end of the

frame and continue through the opposite

center holes. Thread one end of the string

through the adjacent grommet hole and pull

excess by hand.

Secure one of the strings using a string

clamp.
