It is designed to slip when the motorized tuning gets to the ends of its travel.... that screw adjusts the tension. I'm not sure how effective the homemade clutch will work so you might be OK with it. The drive pulleys themselves will also tend to slip at the end of travel, but that's with the old cloth style drive belts, I'm not sure how tight the belts from Adams will be. You'll just have to experiment to see how well it works, and really, most people will stop tuning before it gets to the ends so it is usually a non-issue.
