2) Do the same from the Right Front Vertical to the Left Front
Vertical. Record and compare the two measurements. When they
are equal, the frame will be square.

the frame to square.
4) When you have put the frame square (within 1/8"), go back and
tighten all the connecting bolts.

Lower Front
If you have a loom with a wooden frame, you will need three wooden blocks
to temporarily raise the front of the loom. You can also use thick books. You
need to raise the front of the loom approximately 2”. The access holes for
the nuts on the lower front need to be placed towards the floor. Place blocks
under each Front Vertical, left and right. This will raise the front of the loom
enough for you to install nuts on the bolt ends where they emerge in the
blind access holes. Place an additional block under the right end of the Lower
Front.
If you have a steel frame loom (looms wider than eight feet), the bolts screw
into threaded holes in the cross member. You will not need to raise the front
of the loom in order to access these holes.
1) Bring the Lower Front into position between the free-standing side
frames.
Note:
For a wooden frame, position the bolt holes towards the floor. Use blocks as
described above to raise the loom up so that the holes can be accessed.
2) Select four more 3/8" x 4" bolt assemblies and pre-position the
bolts in the attachment holes, from the outside of each side
frame.
3) Lift the left end of the Lower Front until its bolt holes are opposite
those in the side frame. Push the bolts into position and add the
square nuts. Snug, but don't tighten.
