1.
Remove the left leg from the loom:
Unscrew the two round plastic knobs that
hold the leg and foldable extension to the
left upright, as shown in Figure 1. (Leave
the leg extension knob in place; there’s
no need to disassemble the foldable
extension.) Remove the 3/8" USS metal
washers from the knobs but keep the
T-nut slides in place for the next step. You
can store the metal washers and the leg.
