Tuning Machine Tension Adjustment - Yamaha Silent Bass SLB-100 Owner's Manual

• The strings are tuned to the following pitches. The 1st
string is tuned to G, the 2nd string to D, the 3rd string
to A, and the 4th string to E.
Use a piano, tuning fork, tuner, etc., and adjust the pitch
of each string using the tuning pegs.
• After tuning is complete, make sure that the tailpiece
side of the bridge is still properly aligned. If the bridge
is leaning in either direction, slightly loosen the strings
and carefully re-align the bridge using both hands.
Caution
Make sure that the Tail Wire is correctly positioned
on top of the Saddle.
● Tuning machine tension adjustment
The tuning machine's tension that regulates the amount of pressure
required to turn the tuners can be adjusted using the supplied Allen
wrench.
* If the tuning machine turns with very slight pressure
→ Rotate the adjustment screw to the right (clockwise: A).
* If the tension is tight and the tuning machine is hard to turn
→ Rotate the adjustment screw to the left (counter-clockwise: B).
