Hi Zahid,

This is a very nice box!!!

I use 25,000 for a 1/2" Trimaster on my MM16. I have not tried lower tensions so I cannot comment on what else might work.

Hi Jeff,

I was out of town for a few days. Yes I have a stepstool (3-step ladder) nearby to the saw. I stand on that, loosen the four knobs approx 1/2 turn, slide the guard into the new position...
