<p>im sorry about the LIE in my statement bove. Stringing with POLY wasn't "<span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em><strong>Soon After</strong></em></span>" it was after a long while of trial & Error so i could get the correct tension.</p>

<p>So you let the lever rest at the end 4 o'clock position rather at the upright rest 10 o'clock position? I've read about people doing it this way. Glad it works out for you, Jon.</p>

<p>I sold my NEOS too. Great stringer, but I didn't like lugging that beast into my car. I'd like to get an Alpha Revo or something with a linear gripper.</p>

<p>I totally hear you on that one lol. I've had my Pioneer FL since 95' and remember stringing Kevlar strings and thought to myself, there has to be another way! 5 years later I bought an Ektelon NEOS and loved it. Too bad after my last season of college tennis I sold the NEOS thinking I was never going to pick up a racquet again...now I sorely miss that thing lol</p>

<p>I remember Stringing POLY with my Klippermate Stringer, and doing all of the above.</p>
<p>then I also remember soon after stringing the POLY on my Klippermate I remember thinking <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><em><strong>EFF</strong></em></span> this!</p>
<p>Then, I went out and bought an Gamma x-ES Electric.</p>

<p>Did you start and end your thread in 1 post? lol</p>

<p>I have the old Pioneer FL from back in the 90's with the floating clamps. What I do to string poly is to have the drop weight lever rest all the way back to where it can't drop down anymore. I will then wind the poly string on the cam then adjust and tension the lever to where it needs to be so that the lines match up showing the desired tension has been reached for that particular pull. Hope that helps any or…</p>
