TorqueMaster® Plus

12	Winding Spring(s)
	NOTE: If you have a Torquemaster® counterbalance,
Tools Needed:	skip this step and continue with Step 12 on page 20.
5/8” Socket	NOTE: It is recommended that leather gloves be
Ratchet Wrench	worn while winding the TorqueMaster® Plus springs.
	WARNING
3” Extension
Step Ladder	FAILURE TO WEAR GLOVES MAY CAUSE INJURY TO
	HANDS.
	See chart on page 19 for proper spring tension setting.
	Double check to ensure the counterbalance cable is
	aligned in the first and second groove of the cable
	drum, as shown in Step 10.
	There are two methods for counting the spring turns
	as you wind. One method is to identify the black tooth
	on the ratchet wheel inside of the end bracket. When
	the wheel makes one revolution and the tooth returns
	to its starting point, one turn has been made. The other
	method is to make a mark on the winding shaft (or
	socket) and end bracket, and count your turns in this
	manor.
	IMPORTANT! PAWL KNOB MUST BE IN UPPER
	POSITION TO ADD/ REMOVE SPRING TURNS. AFTER
	ADDING / REMOVING SPRING TURNS, PAWL KNOB
	MUST BE PLACED BACK IN LOWER POSITION.
	Beginning with the right side, place a mark on winding
	shaft (or socket) and end bracket. Turn pawl knob on
	the end bracket to the upper position. Using a ratchet
	with a 5/8” socket, wind the spring by rotating the
	winding shaft counter clockwise, while watching the
	mark on the winding shaft.
	NOTE: A 3” extension is also recommended for added
	clearance from the horizontal angle.
	After 2-3 turns, remove the ratchet and adjust the
	cable on the left side. Ensure the cable is in the first
	and second groove of the cable drums as shown in
	Step 10 and clear of any obstructions.
	NOTE: Single spring applications require no spring
	winding on left hand side, but need cable tension
	adjusted.
