4. Assembling the treadle arms
Open hardware bag 2:
•
4 carriage bolts 8 x 75 mm with
large washer, small washer,
spacer, and cap nut.
•
2 bolts m8 x 70 mm with large
washer and barrel nut.
•
1 threaded hook m6 x 60 mm with
barrel nut.
•
4 screws 5 x 40 mm with counter
sunk cross head.
•
8 screws 5 x 50 mm
Take the treadle arms out of Box B and
assemble each with an m8 x 75 mm
carriage bolt onto a middle post of the
loom, using the holes where ball
bearings are present. Make sure that
you assemble the section between the
treadle arm and ball bearing in the
correct sequence: Consecutively slide
the large washer, the small washer,
and the bushing onto the bolt after you
put it through the hole in the treadle
arm.
Tighten the bolt with a cap nut. You
don’t need a washer on the outside
between the ball bearing and the cap
nut.
Take the back post P out of Box B. You
can recognize the back posts by their
markings O and P and by the two holes
with ball bearings.
Connect back post P to the right treadle
arm with the m8 x 75 mm carriage bolt.
Make the connection in the same
manner as the treadle arm to the
middle post.
