Guidelines for Installing the Tool Balancer (contd)
NOTE: Before attaching the gun and hose to the tool balancer, make sure
that the weight is within the accepted load specification.
Adjust the balance upward or downward by modifying the cable tension
setting.
‐ To increase cable tension, perform the following step:
a. Turn the ratcheting balance adjust clockwise.
‐ To decrease cable tension, perform the following steps:
a. Turn the ratcheting balance adjust clockwise until the ratchet
release is free of the ratcheting mechanism.
b. Allow the ratcheting balance adjust to rotate counterclockwise in
increments of ¼ turn.
CAUTION! Hold the ratcheting balance adjust firmly when
decreasing cable tension. When the ratchet release is rotated free
of the ratcheting mechanism, the ratcheting balance adjust is
under spring tension and will quickly rotate counterclockwise if not
held firmly.
