3. PREPARATIONS FOR WEAVING START-UP

[ 2 ] Drawing-in procedure
Draw in warp from the left end of the reed (from the
main nozzle side) regardless of the drawing-in
width.
Drawing-in from the 2nd dent
As shown at left, start drawing at the 2nd dent from
the left.
To improve selvage firmness, draw a few more
warps through the 2nd dent than those to be drawn
through other dents. However, drawing so many
warps through the 2nd dent will rather make sel-
vages poor or result in increased weft misses
(loop).

Reed
1st dent from the left
Profile dent
(1st dent)
Ground yarn
Drawing-in start dent (2nd dent)
Main dent
The 1st dent should be reserved for the fol-
lowing purposes:
• When you use additional yarn, draw
additional yarn and leno yarn through
the 1st dent.
• When not using additional yarn, you
may draw leno yarn through the 1st dent
since this sometimes will improve sel-
vage firmness.
