Slip off the tension and drive belts,
then lift out the flyer and bobbin
assembly. Remove the rear axle
bearing. Keep track of it by placing it
back onto the rear magnets. With the
new bobbin on the flyer shaft, replace
the rear bearing onto the end of the
axle and place the assembly back onto
the chassis, making sure the small rear
bearing clicks back onto the magnets.
Replace the tension and drive belts,
and you are ready to spin again!

Here tension is on the flyer, so the
tension band can’t be rolled off and
will instead need to be unattached
from one side. The spring in the
Standard Flyer tension system makes
for easy tension band removal from
this side. Since the Art Flyer doesn’t
use a spring, you will need to loosen
the tension and then slip the entire
knob/stalk assembly out of its track.
Once the drive and tension belts
are out of the way, lift out the flyer
and bobbin assembly. Remove the
rear axle bearing and keep track of
it by placing it back onto the rear
magnets. With the new bobbin on the
flyer shaft, replace the rear bearing
onto the end of the axle and place
the assembly back onto the chassis,
making sure the small rear bearing
clicks back onto the magnets. Replace
the tension and drive belts, and you
are ready to spin again!
