Is the tension optimally set right out of the box or does it need adjusting?

Ours was set pretty well. My wife didn't need to adjust anything on our machine.

The tension is adjustable...so the answer all depends on how much suction you like till it gets uncomfortable...

Yes it is. It's adjustable over a large range and spring loaded for tension over a smaller range.

yes! read the directions. don't mean to be rude. i had the same problem. there is a knob in the middle you have to turn and you will be able to get them to move and get the tension you want.

Yea the tension is adjustable. It was easy to mount before and after mounting the scope. The levers are easy to use but I could see them being difficult to use with gloved hands.

I don't know of anyway to adjust the tension but I have had something similar happen with another stapler it was because I had it loaded with too long of staple so you might want to check that.

Yes to both questions. For the release, you need to take the tension off by squeezing slightly then push the release between the handles. It has an adjustment knob for force. I have been very satisfied with this tool. Harry

there is a sliding set screw on the back of the rod (where you can't see it) that allows you to adjust the tension.

No. It has a pull start. Fairly low tension but still requires some effort. It always started within two pulls for me.

Initially it takes a but of tinkering to get the tension just right. But once you've got it, you can just slide it up or down...very easy to do.

The pre-strung tension is a little bit soft but still playable, mine got re-strung with a Yonex string by a friend and I didn't ask about the tension detail but it is noticeably has higher tension and felt the increased in smashing power. I heard the normal tension is around 22 ~ 24 pound. Hope this help.

Should be an allen wrench set scree on top...turn it to increase the tension...push down on the wrench while in screw to release all tension

I discovered that the adjustment of tension can be modified by taking off the tension by unlatching the pawl then push the pawl until the nut clears the retaining pin and then screwing the nut in or out depending on whether you wish the tension increased or decreased once the lever(pawl) is latched. Directions should have been included to tell one this but not included with mine.

I didn't adjust the tensions, I like it the way it was set by the seller/manufacturer. And I am not even sure how todo it. About the sound - it was very quiet the first 3-4 days, and after that it started making squeaky noise. I called the sellerthey said they would be glad to exchange it but I decided to put some machine oil to see if it goes away (I figured it would be easier than returning it).I haven't done it yet, I need to buy that oil first. Otherwise, I like the machine.

The spring tension is adjustable. I used it on a gate and it was installed on the outside of the gate.

You can adjust the tension to a degree. If you take the cover off, you'll see the cable that is adjustable. Gon' take it in too much, or the "shoe" that has the magnet on it will rub against the flywheel. I also put some small, round, hobby magnets on the original one to increase it even more, since as tou use it, you get stronger and even the increased resistance seems to be not enough. Hope this helps.
