Forum poster "gronendael" makes an excellent diagram & write up concerning the fastening process & consequent adjusting for tension here:

I will paste it below, for convenience, for new users:
"Thanks. I had seen Treetop's schedule and so was planning on trying to go by that once I understood how the device works. I think one misunderstanding I had originally was how you used the tension lines. Please tell me if I understand them correctly now. Here is a "diagram" as to which tension line is which as I understand them currently. I understood what they were for, but now how they were used nor which line was which...i.e. was the "first" 600g tension line the top or the bottom one? Anyway, here's how I understand it now.

The next part I didn't understand was how to use them. Originally, I thought I was supposed to compress the device down to Tension Line 1, insert the penis, and then release the compression and the device would put 600g of stress on the penis. This is the theory I was going with at first.
After a couple days of this, it was obvious I was not making the correct assumption. Then it dawned on me after looking at treetop's pics, even though I don't think he specifically explained it anywhere...yeah, sometimes I can be a little slow.
You compress the device completely and strap it...this simply makes it easier to get your penis strapped down. Then you release the compression and the device should be completely "open" or uncompressed. You should be able to see all 3 tension lines yet your penis is already stretched a bit. If it is not, then you need to add some of the lengthening tension bars.
Once you're strapped in, the device is totally uncompressed, and your penis is stretched a bit, you begin turning the screws to lengthen the device further. Your penis will reach its maximum stretchable limit as you are turning the screws. However, you continue to turn the screws. Since your penis is not stretching any further, the device will start to compress slowly as you lengthen it. As it compresses, it will move closer and closer to the tension lines. You keep unscrewing until the desired tension line lines up with the device. For beginners, this should either be tension line 1 or half way between lines 1 and 2 if you follow treetop's schedule. "

Treetops schedule can be found here:

One part reads:"
Week Hrs Tension
2 2 900
3 3 1000
4 2 1000
5 3 1200
6 4 1200
7 4 1200
8+ 6 1200
As for tension, when not compressed the extender is at the first line, 600 grams if compressed. Second line about 1200 grams, and all the way to the third line 1800 grams. "
