5.1.3 Description of Adjustments
The following tables describes the general outline of the adjustments.
NOTE 1: The meanings of abbreviations in the “What to Use” column are as follows.
SP = Service Program
SM = Serviceman Mode
MECH = Mechanical Adjustment can be performed. (In some cases, a dedicated tool for the adjustment or a commercially available tool such as a tension gauge is
necessary.)
2: When both SP and SM are checked, both can be used but we recommend using the service program as it is more user-friendly.
