ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Base Leg Assembly
The stringing machine uses a four leg base
design. The legs must be assembled to the
lower column support before use. This is
the larger of the two posts with the GAMMA
label. Align the holes in the leg fl ange 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
bottom hole. Repeat this procedure for the
three remaining legs.
Base Foot Height Adjustment
Each foot of the Base Stand can be adjusted
to compensate for uneven surfaces.
Upper Column Support Assembly
The upper column support is shipped inside
of the lower column support. Unloosen the
two set screws at the top of the lower column
support / base leg assembly. Extend the upper column to the maximum height and lock
in place with the two set screws located at
the top of the lower column support.

the top. Place the remaining bellows over
the upper support column and mate it with
the fl ange on the lower bellows.
Tool Tray Installation
Lower the tool tray over the top of the upper
column support and let it rest loosely on the
bellows assembly.
