www.ektelon.com800-283-6647 O3 & O PORT RACQUETS: Start main string at top of racquet (Method B) except certain AirO models. Many will require a flat washer to prevent the Start Pin from pulling through the large O ports. We have included a washer in your Maintenance Packet for this purpose. Also, to keep the string on the correct side of the O port, use the Brake Pin to lock your turntable in place while tensioning. This usually applies to the first half of the cross strings only. Some O port models require cross string to start on specific side. Refer to markings on racquet.
NOTE: Add 1 foot to each measurement in the LENGTH column when using Co-Poly, Polyester or Kevlar strings.
Key:
M = Main String
C = Cross String
T = Top of Frame
B = Bottom of Frame
S = Short Side Main String Measurement (Used For One Piece Stringing)
