5)
Connect all the air line fittings to the new line.
6)
Repeat with the second line.
Install the new Compu-Dobby
It's now time to install the new Compu-Dobby. You will receive new
adjustment springs and mounting brackets with the new Compu-Dobby.
1)
Place the new springs into the holes where you removed the old
ones at the end of the adjustment slot in the wooden dobby sides.
2)
Slide the new Compu-dobby into the adjustment slots where the
chain cylinder used to be, guiding the ends of new springs into the
holes in the Delrin pillow blocks that are fastened to the sides of the
Compu-dobby.
3)
Install the new Delrin adjustment brackets where the aluminum
adjustment brackets used to be.
Install the new air pressure regulator
You'll need to install the new air pressure regulator in a location on the rear
side of the wooden Compu-Dobby box so the inlet and outlet fittings can be
easily accessed to install the new air lines. You'll be installing a new 1/4" air
line that runs between the main 3/8" air line near the on/off hand-valve, up
the rear side of the vertical frame part to the yellow fitting on the regulator.
