Route the flyshuttle cord
There is a hole in each picker that is larger on the outside than it is on the
inside. This hole is about 3/8" in diameter on the outer side of the picker and
about 1/8" in diameter on the inner side
1)
From the middle of the loom, route the cord over one of the pulleys
attached to the Harness Pulley Support. The knot above the handle
should be about an inch below the pulley.
Note:
If the knot was placed correctly, the pickers should still return to the end of
the picker rod at each end of the beater and the cord should stop before the
knot stops the cord from moving any farther.
2)
Take it under the pulley on the back face of the beater upright,
under the pulley on the inner picker rod support.

3)
Thread the cord through the hole in the picker, from the small side
to the larger outside part.
