Restarting After an "Emergency Stop"
If you’ve used this mode, your loom will have stopped somewhere mid-
cycle; that is, anywhere between a cloth advance and a beater return.
However, when you re-start the loom, it will re- set automatically to the
beginning of the next cycle. Whatever weaving operations were yet to go
when it was shut
down will not be completed. If you continue weaving in the
AUTO mode, you’ll develop a flaw in the fabric.
Note:
Before re-starting the loom, make sure the shuttles are firmly in their boxes
and the warp yarns are correctly in place.
1) Switch the loom to Manual at the Control Panel.
2) Determine where you are in the weaving sequence.
