Tools
All parts used for the loom are metric. To facilitate the assembly, we have included two
wrenches (10 mm for m6, 13 mm for m8) and a pz2 cross head screwdriver (not a Phillips
head!). Together with hardware bags 1, 2 and 5, these tools are located in box B.
Bolts, washers, bushings and nuts, packed in the hardware bags are assembled in the
correct sequence. Hardware bags 1, 2 and 5 are packed in box B. In addition to the middle
part in box A, the first parts needed for the assembly are packed in box B.
1. Assembling the side rails to the middle section
Open hardware Bag 1:
•
8 bolts m8 x 130 mm, with large
washer and barrel nut
•
2 bolts m8 x 70 mm, with large
washer and barrel nut
•
4 bolts m6 x 70 mm, with washer
and barrel nut
•
4 carriage bolts m8 x 65 mm, each
with large washer, two small
washers, and a cap nut
•
4 carriage bolts m8 x 50 mm, each
with a large ring and cap nut
•
4 rubber buffers
Use two sawhorses, a table, or the
empty Box A to support the middle
section of the loom raised at about 24"-
32" above the floor.
Find the two upper side rails marked J
N D and I M C and also the two hinged
arms, which you can recognize by the
six metal hooks.
The rails have to be attached to the
middle section. These rails have holes
with ball bearings for the attachment of
the hinged arms to connect the back
part of the loom.
If you are assembling a 32-shaft Megado, you will have to first assemble one of the hinged
arms to the side rail JND; it is impossible to do that after this upper side rail is assembled to
the middle part!
