How to adjust Gamma-X2 clamps?

Question

Hi there, just wondering if anyone know how to calibrate the clamps from the Gamma-x2 stringing machine to adjust to each string with different thickness? I know you turn the k**b, but how do you know how many clicks that you should turn? thanks.

I have a Gamma Progression II, and to be honest with you, I usually leave the clamps alone for the 16 and 17 gauge strings.  I'd only change them if I noticed some slippage.  I think 1 or 2 clicks would work fine.  It probably matters more if you are stringing at really high tensions, and want minimal slippage (there is always a little).  I'm sure you'll figure it all out with a little trial and error, till you get into the rhythm of things.  Good luck!
