The machine is equipped with two adjustable tension springs, mounted externally, which can be unhooked from their anchor. This allows the measuring head to be pivoted up to a backstop to facilitate threading the cable through the machine. When in position, these springs grip the cable between the measuring roller and the bottom roller. They should be adjusted for the minimum tension required to prevent slippage.
