STAND ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS (refer to diagram on back)
1) Position base pieces with notches out as shown. Insert #3 bolts through
base pieces
from bottom.
Align
cross bar
holes so the bolts can pass through the proper pair of holes for the loom to be
mounted (use the holes closer to the center for the SG-20 loom , or nearest the end for the SG-24
loom). Secure each bolt with a flat washer, a lock washer and then a wing nut above the
cross bar
.
2) Position the 2
long uprights
in the
base
notches so the sloted ends are up and facing forward as
shown. Pass a #2 bolt through each
base piece
and then each
long upright
, securing it with a flat
washer, lock washer and wing nut.
3)Position the
short uprights
outside the
base pieces
, with the slotted ends up and facing back to-
ward the l
ong uprights
as shown. Pass a #2 bolt from the inside through the front hole in each
base
piece
and then through the hole in the
short upright
. Secure each bolt with a flat washer, lock
washer and wing nut.
4) Position each of the 4 aluminum brackets in the slots provided at the top of the uprights, with the
notched bracket ends up. Attach the brackets with #2 bolts going from the inside of the stand to the
outside to reduce chances of snagging clothing on the wing nuts. the brackets in the long uprights
must be attached with the same choice of the 3 optional holes in the aluminum, so the back of the
loom will be level. The same is true of the front brackets in the short uprights. Experiment with the
various hole settings to find the loom position that works best for you. Secure with flat washers, lock
washers and wing nuts.
ATTACHING THE LOOM
Loosen the 4 knobs on your loom. Slip the loom’s threaded beam rods into the notches in each alu-
minum bracket, being sure to position the bracket between the washers and the knobs. Aluminum
can discolor the sides of your loom, so it is important that the washers be between the wood and the
brackets. Retighten knobs. Check that the height is comfortable and raise or lower the aluminum
brackets as necessary. Begin weaving.
STORING LOOM AND STAND
To temporarily store your loom and stand, remove loom from the
long upright
brackets, leaving it
attached to the
short upright
brackets. Fold the loom down, and lean the
short uprights
backward
until the loom hangs upside down and rests against the
long uprights
.
