Rotary Ring Temples are an upgrade available for this loom. The K-Series
comes with hidden, built-brackets making ring temple installation quick and
simple.
The Temple System is used to maintain a good selvage and prevent draw-in.
You’ll usually deploy it after you’ve woven-off some fabric, once you have
selvage enough to work with. It consists of two rollers (barrels), working in
tandem, which grab the selvage and prevent it from drawing in.
Ring Temple System Assembly
It is best to install the rod and supports before tying on your warp. The ring
temple cloth guides can be put on after you have woven enough yardage to
get your apron rods around the front beam.
Note:
The ring temples should be installed so that the temple is closest to the inside
of the loom. If they are installed closer to the cloth beam, the cloth beam
cover will not fit on the loom.
