1.
Unfold the loom on a flat surface.
Tighten the black fold knobs so the loom
is fully extended and locked(figure 1).
2.
Match each height extender with the
appropriate leg (see figure 2, page 4).
3.
Remove the arrow peg that is pushed
through the brake cord underneath the
brake release pedal. Using a pair of
9
/

”
wrenches, remove the
3
/
8
x 3” bolt holding
the brake release assembly to the right
rear leg. Save all of the parts except for
the bolt, you will need them when you re-
attach the brake release assembly.
4.
Remove the bolts holding the rear leg
brace. These are the bolts closest to the
floor on each leg. Set aside the 3” bolts
and barrel nuts for re-use. Remove the
rear leg brace.
5.
With the rear leg brace removed from
the loom, attach the height extenders by
inserting the tenon of the
brace into the mortise
of the extender (see:
detail A). Secure the
height extenders using
the 3” bolts inserted
through the bottom
hole and threaded into
a barrel nut.
6.
Attach the newly assembled height
extender to the left rear leg by inserting
a 1-3/4” truss head bolt from the inside out
(top hole of the height extender, 2nd hole
from the bottom of the leg). Secure the
bolt with a washer and wing nut on the
outside of the leg.
7.
Re-attach the brake release pedal
to the right rear leg using the
3
/
8
x 3-1/2”
Truss head bolt from the outside in (top
hole of the height extender, 2nd hole
from the bottom of the leg). Attach in this
order: bolt, washer, brake release pedal,
washer, spacer, washer, right rear height
extender, right rear leg, washer, locknut.
Replace the brake cord and arrow peg to
their original positions
8.
Finish securing the height extenders
by inserting a 1-1/2” truss head bolt from
the inside out of both rear legs (bot-
tom hole of the leg, middle hole of the
extender). Secure with washers and wing
nuts.
9.
At the front, remove the bolts and
barrel nuts from each side of the treadle
support and set aside the barrel nuts for
later use. Spread the front legs apart and
remove the treadle assembly.
10.
If you purchased your Wolf Pup as a Height
Extender loom, skip ahead to step 15.
11.
There are two kinds of treadles on the
Wolf Pup 8.10; inside treadles (
IT
) and out-
side treadles (
OT
). Outside treadles have
metal eyebolts screwed in to them, and
inside treadles have a slot cut into them.
Pay attention (or take a picture) of the
order, and direction the treadles lay out on
the treadle bar, you will be replacing them
with the included extended treadles.
12.
Using a Phillips head screw driver un-
screw and remove the treadle blocks from
the treadle support. Remove the treadle
bar from the treadle support. Remove
and save the plastic spacer (
PS
), wooden
treadle blocks (
TB
), and wooden spacers
(
WS
) from the treadle bar.
13.
Install the new height extender trea-
dles on to the treadle support bar in the
same sequence it arrived from the factory
in (from left to right of the loom front): PS,
OT, WS, IT, WS, IT, TB, IT, WS, IT, TB, IT,
WS, IT, TB, IT, WS, IT, WS, OT, PS.
14.
Re-attach the treadle bar to treadle
support by screwing the treadle blocks
back to the support.
15.
Attach the height extenders to the
treadle assembly by inserting the metal
pins into the appropriate
holes (see: detail B). In-
sert the saved barrel
nuts into the treadle
support and thread
the new 2-1/2” truss
head bolts into them
from the outside.
Tighten and secure
the treadle support.
16.
Attach the height extenders to the
legs by inserting a 1-3/4” truss head bolt
through the top holes from the inside of
the leg and secure with a washer and wing
nut. Repeat for the middle holes using
1-1/2” truss head bolts.
