Tensioner Use a framer’s level to confirm that the panel remains plumb while adjusting the tensioners. Hold the level against a stud on either end of the panel and adjust tensioners with the suggested clutch level of 3 on your electric drill. Be careful not to overtighten the tensioner because it could move the panel out of square. All that’s necessary is a few pounds of torque. Now add a self-tapping screw at each point where the strap crosses a stud or brace.
We have provided extra tensioners and strapping in the event you choose to brace other panels.
