Geralt Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 Guys I'm a bit in the dark about the dept of the spring mount on the aforementioned gripper in terms of resistance. Anyone good references? Can't seem to find what I'm looking for here. Any ideas welcome. I take it that both handles are adjusted to the same depth every time? Thnx!

Cannon Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 One note, both handles are adjustable, and getting them even doesn't really matter. You can work out all the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

acorn Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 I've used Allen wrenches as the standard to set or check mount for years with my adjustable grippers. Both inch and metric. Just lay one on top pf the handle flat down and swipe under the spring till it just touches during adjustment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
