Adjusting the Compu-Dobby
That each solenoid tip is approximately centered side-to-side on its
corresponding Dobby Finger strip.
The trick is to adjust the Compu-Dobby unit in or out until the cables are
each deposited just to the rear of each slot. If the cables are pushed too far
back or not back far enough, the harnesses will not lift properly.
Note:
The technician who installed your loom will adjust the Compu-Dobby initially.
Time and use may cause the Compu-Dobby to require re-adjustment.
1)
On the computer, setup a liftplan that will lift the first and last
harness on the loom.
2)
Set the loom on manual.
3)
Back the set screws holding the Compu-Dobby out. Slightly loosen
the hex nuts through which each screw is threaded.
4)
Send the liftplan to the loom and use the hand control to activate
the dobby. You should hear the solenoids activate (they make an
abrupt snapping sound). If this doesn't happen, repeat your
treadling.
5)
Return to the Compu-Dobby unit and, peering in from the bottom;
verify that the two solenoids are extended.
6)
Pull back on the Compu-Dobby unit so that it rests against the
adjustment brackets.
7)
Now use the 1/8" Allen wrench to turn the left set screw clockwise.
This will cause the Compu-Dobby unit to move forward.
8)
Continue to turn the screw until the left-most extended solenoid
just pushes its steel cable to the rear of the slot in the Dobby Arm
Insert.
REMEMBER:
The cable should just touch the rear of its slot. If it is pushed too far back, it
will cause problems later with your harness lifts.
9)
Hold the set screw stationary with the Allen wrench and use your
wrench to snug down the hex nut. This will lock the adjustment.
Repeat this procedure on the other side.
NOTE:
The key point is that the solenoids won't work properly unless they are fully
