USER MANUAL
Unpacking and inspection
The machine is delivered ready assembled.
In the parcel are 4 pieces V-shaped Side Supports, two Ultimate clamps, one AC
power cord and Allen wrenches.
Lift carefully the machine out of the carton. Inspect the Electronic TX-500N
stringing machine for obvious damage. Check if all parts are in the carton.
If any item is missing or damaged, contact your delivery agent and your sales
representative. Retain the packaging materials and shipping container in the
event that reshipping is required.
Operating Instructions
1. Place the machine on a table or a stand foot.
2. On the electronic part is on the back side a switch which should be in the ON position
for normal operation.
3. Turn the power on and a red light flashes and the tension number appears on the LED
display.
4. Select the scale of the Tension for kilograms or pounds, left beside the display. The
machine is always shipped with kilogram selected.
5. Now turn the knob on the right side of the Electronic part to select the tension you want
to string your racket. The machine is very sensible, so it will by maybe not so easy to
select.
6. The stringing machine has 3 positions:
0 ………. Machine Stops
1 ………. Machine tears to the selected tension
2 …..........Machine moves back to the starting position.
7. If the string is not release then press the green button, the machine will rotate one total
round.
8. After stringing turn the machine off.
9. Turn the tension on the display down to 10 kilogram that the tension in the machine is as
little as possible in the time of not stringing.
Fixing of the Racket
Loosen both mounting stocks, place the four K-shaped side supports into the
hole of the side-support arms, in the far outer hole for tennis rackets, in the other
hole for badminton and squash. Now place the racket in the middle of the
stringing machine. Be aware that the two string clamps can reach all the
stringing area of the racket.
Never apply excessive force or over-tighten the mounting stock locking knobs,
this will damage the parts.
Tighten now the side support arms and the mounting stock, but be careful not to
do this too heavily, that the racket will not be deformed.
Very Important
How to put the string into the tensionsystem
First place the string over the small reel and then around the big one and place it
into the slot and hold the string down. Then push the button to 1 and the
machine starts pulling until it has the right tension.
Adjust the Base of the Swivel Clamp to the correct holding
pressure
If the Clamp base is no longer working very well, put the clamp base vertical to
the track. Insert the 3mm Allen wrench into the hole on the side of the base,
before you have to remove the black cap. Then turn it clockwise only slightly,
do not use excessive force, this could damage the base. It can be very difficult
do turn. Then put the Allen wrench out of the base and test if it is working well
again, if not repeat the process again. So you do not have to adjust on the base of
the clamp base. Only at this screw!
Maintenance
1. The Electronic TX-500N stringing machine is adjusted and calibrated
before shipment. Working is easy and relatively maintenance-free.
2. Keep the stringing machine always at a dry and safe place. Keep it away
from dust, grease, moisture and any type of heat.
3. Clean the dust and other dirt with a soft cloth or brush.
4. Water should never come inside the machine!
5. Do not use liquid cleansers, abrasive cleaners or aerosol cleaners.
6. Use fine emery cloth to remove the wax buildup from the jaws of the
clamps and the string gripper.
7. Do not uses sandpaper to remove the wax buildup; it will destroy the
special finishing.
8. Do not lubricate the tracks of the turntable.
9. Do not use penetrating oils to clean or to lubricate.
10.Check the clamps often to be sure that they hold the string properly. I not
adjust them as shown before.
11.Reset the tension setting to 10 kilograms after stringing.
Troubleshooting
The power light does not shine and the electronic part does not do anything.
•Be sure the power switch is in “on” position.
•Check that the power cord is properly installed.
•Check the fuse. Turn off the power switch and unplug the power cord
from the wall outlet before checking the fuse. The fuse housing is next to
the power switch.
•Check the wall outlet with another electronic equipment.
The string clamp does not hold the string:
•Clean the jaws of the string clamp.
•Adjust the clamp on the top.
The string slips through the string gripper:
•Clean the string gripper, like described before.
The clamp does not move smoothly or can not be fixed:
•Clean the tracks of the turntable.
•Adjust the swivel clamp base per instruction.
The tension pulling is not correct:
•Calibrate the machine.
•Is the string not fixed in the clamp?
•Is the clamp base moving?
Calibration
The machine is calibrated with an electronic Tension calibrator, if you have only
a mechanic one, please be sure that it is not too old otherwise the spring inside
will give you wrong results.
1. Set the tension to 25 kg
2. Fix the tension calibrator with one end at the mounting post and the other
into the string gripper.
3. Start pulling and check the result on the tension calibrator.
4. If the result is not correct, you have to readjust the machine.
5. Beside the display are two little holes, take a small screwdriver, put it into
the upper hole and turn inside a little to get the same tension at the display
and the tension calibrator. At the beginning it will be not so easy, because
there is a transport protection on it.
6. Then pull again and check the result.
7. If the result is ok, it is finished, if not repeat this procedure as long as the
result is ok.
