  • Page 5 ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS Bellows Installation The bellows assembly is supplied in two pieces and should be assembled as follows. Place the bellows section with the flange over the upper support column with the flange on the top. Place the remaining bellows over the upper support column and mate it with the flange on the lower bellows.

Place the brake pad into the turntable tube, then insert the end of the brake leverbolt into the hole of the brake pad so that the brake pad rests on the shoulder of the bolt.
  • Page 7 ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS Retract the four set screws around the top of the turntable tube to provide clearancefor installing the turntable. Carefully lower the turntable into the tube until it seats fully into the tube and rests against the bearing lo- cated at the botom of the tube.

    MOUNTING THE FRAME Height Adjustment The turntable height of the GAMMA 6002 can be adjusted to suit the stringer. To adjust, loosen the two set screws on the lower col- umn support post below the bellows assem- bly. Adjust the amount of engagement be- tween the upper and lower column supports until the desired height is attained.
  • Page 11 MOUNTING THE FRAME Support Slide Adjustment Once the frame support posts are secured, lightly tighten the support slides by turning the knobs on the outside of the slides clock- wise. Adjust the slides in equal increments until slight resistance is felt. Apply a final adjustment to all racquet sup- port points until the racquet is firmly secured in the mounting system.
