2. Observe and Adjust
a. Check the movement of a raised pin in the pin centering cone by pulling on its string. The
travel distance of the pin should be 1-3 mm + 2 mm. Refer toFigure4-9.
b. If the tension adjustment is required for any of the pins. Refer to Figure 4-9;
Slide the string spool away from locking pins to release the spool reel.
Rotate the string reel as needed to obtain the 1-3 mm + 2 mm travel distance.
When the proper gap has been obtained, move the string reel to the right rotating it as
required to align its holes with locking pins.
