Stopping your loom safely
It is important to understand how to stop your loom safely, especially if an
emergency occurs. Always pay attention to where you are in relation to the
moving parts of the loom. Normally, you will use Stop or Pause to stop the
loom when weaving.
In an emergency where the loom needs to be stopped immediately, you
should use the Emergency Stop. However, anything that has already been
placed in motion will complete that motion. For instance, if the shuttle has
been thrown, it will not stop until it hits something.
1) There are three ways to stop your loom:
a. Press STOP
b. Press PAUSE
c. Press EMERGENCY STOP

Each of these actions will bring the loom to a standstill; but, different
situations call for different methods.
