Our wheels ship out in Scotch tension setup. The motor will be facing
forward and the pinion pulley will have just enough space between
it and the front frame to slip on the rubber drive belt. Viewing from
the side will verify that the drive belt is parallel to the adjacent front
frame.
The tension belt is located in your spares kit. (It’s a short piece of
Kevlar with a spring and an adjustable cinch plate.) Install your flyer,
bobbin, motor drive belt, and tension belt. Place the tension belt so
that the spring is on the LEFT side when spinning singles (clockwise,
Z) but swap the tension belt with spring on the RIGHT side for plying
(counter clockwise, S). This way the spring can actually do its job
on the “taut” side of the tension belt. The goal is to have the Right
Tension Dial (1) adjusted into the middle of its adjustment range, with
no slack in the tension belt and very little expansion of the spring. This
is a good starting point and makes sure there is a usable range on the
dial so takeup can be increased or decreased.
