Tape Tension
The tape is tensioned according to compression of the bottom tape mount spring. The tension
gauge provides visual indication of low, medium, and high tension positions. Short runs, up to
five floors will generally be acceptable at the low tension position. Runs to 15 floors will gener-
ally be acceptable at the medium tension position. Longer runs may require the high tension
position but you should start out with the medium setting first.
Tape tension is intended to reduce noise caused by tape vibration at contract speed. Generally,
you want to use the lowest tension setting that maintains a quiet tape at contract speed.
Sensor Installation
Tape guide side pieces easily detach so the sensor can be slipped onto the steel tape.
