Tecnifibre mounting
Q: I have a Tecnifibre SP Pro Cord, which is old enough that some of the really large racquets — such as the Wilson Hyper Sledge Hammer 2.0 — are difficult to mount. I know there are adapters, but do you have any tricks that make it easier to string the super-oversize racquets on this machine?
A: The best trick is to replace the stock turntable with the newer turntable from the Tecnifibre TF 6000. Tecnifibre designed the TF 6000 turntable specifically to mount the super-oversize frames, while it still mounts everything down to a badminton frame. The turntables on the TF 7000 and TF 8000 also have this flexibility, but neither retrofits to the SP Pro Cord. As a side benefit, you get brand new clamps as part of the turntable assembly. Tecnifibre USA can be reached at 877-332-0825.
