The machine can only be used when it is clamped to the table. Slide the table clamp through the frame and position the machine so far from the edge of the table that the clamping screw is under the centre of the frame.
Page 3: A5. Calibrating The Tension System
A5. Calibrating the tension system. The tension system can be calibrated with the calibrator which is supplied with the machine. The tension will not vary more than a few percent over the hole stroke. To get the most accurate results calibrate the system in the middle of the stroke between the forward position and the moment that the “end of stroke signal”...

A6. End of stroke indication. At the end of the stroke the tension drops. When the “end of stroke indicator” moves out, tensionthe string again: Lift the lever to open the jaws, pull the string tight and lower the lever again. IMPORTANT: A string needs less stretch when it is pulled for the second time because the remaining elongation from the first pull is already developed.

Mounting a tennis racquet goes as follows, the numbers in figure 11 show the sequence of the actions. 1) Move the central head support inwards. 2) Move the throat support inwards so that the racquet fits over the supports.
Page 7: B5. Using The Table Lock
B5. Using the table lock. The MS140L has a table lock which locks the turntable in 6 positions. When the lever is in the upper position the table will lock as soon as the locking pin meets a hole in the turntable. B6.
Page 8: The Maintenance Of The Machine
When the machine is out of use or should be transported the tension head should be in the end position against the stop: - Lift the lever to open the string clamp. - Push the knob of the locking bar down. - Lower the lever until the tension head hits the end stop inside the machine.
Page 9: Overhaul Of A Stringway Clamp
We advice to put some grease on the shaft every now and then for minimum wear. E. Overhaul of a Stringway clamp. After extensive use the clamps of the Stringway machines can be overhauled quite easily. Figure 1 shows the parts of the clamp.
Page 10 THE ASSEMBLY OF THE CLAMP. - Put the spring in the hole between the front and the back of the clamp. - Clamp both castings on top of each other in the clamping device. - Put the Alan bolt in from the back.
