Attaching the footmen

Attach the footmen to the treadles using the cotter pins, clevis pins and the 

white nylon washers that are packed in the small box with the flyer. 

The left treadle is attached to the footman that is closest to the back of the 

wheel. Place the footman leather inside the treadle yoke and line up the holes. Put 
a washer on a clevis pin and insert the clevis pin from the front of the wheel towards 
the back. Put another washer on the clevis pin and secure by inserting a cotter pin 
through the clevis pin until the cotter pin is about halfway through the clevis pin. 

The right treadle is attached in the same way, but the clevis pin should be 

inserted through the footman and treadle yoke from the back of the wheel toward 
the front.  

Adjusting the treadle height

This adjustment is only necessary if your treadle is either 

rubbing the drive wheel or hitting the rear leg cross support. 
To adjust the treadle height, remove the cotter pin from the 
treadle-yoke pin and pull the treadle-yoke pin out of the trea-
dle yoke. Rotate the yoke clockwise to raise the treadle and 
counterclockwise to lower the treadle. Make only two or three 
turns and reassemble the footman and treadle yoke. Repeat 
this adjustment until you are satisfied with the position of the 
treadle.

Adjusting the front legs

The front legs of your spinning wheel can be adjusted to accommodate uneven 

floors. Simply loosen the lock nut and screw the foot up or down as needed, then 
tighten the lock nut. 

Installing the flyer assembly

Loosen the front maiden T-knob about one turn. Pivot the front maiden forward. 

Insert the flyer-bobbin-whorl assembly fitting the small end of the flyer shaft into the 
rear maiden bearing. Be sure to lift the drive band up and over the bobbin and whorl 
pulleys. Pivot the front maiden up and fit the flyer orifice into the front maiden bear-
ing. Tighten the T-knob.
