Harness heights and blocking pin
Good for both Spring 1 and Spring 2
Harness heights and blocking pin – ANY TIME YOU WANT TO ADJUST SHAFT OR LAM HEIGHTS, STEP 1 IS ALWAYS “INSERT THE BLOCKING PIN.”
Any adjustment made without the blocking pin in place will result in incorrect positioning of your shafts or lams.
Your loom will arrive from Louët with the harness heights correctly set. Louët uses a fail-proof method to ensure this. When assembling your shafts, the top frame of the castle—containing the upper pulleys—is placed in a jig. The cords are then installed and tensioned to their exact specifications.
Next, the harnesses and lams are connected, also using this jig, by resting them on preset shelves before attaching them to the Texsolv cords.
Once in place, a level is used to ensure all shafts and lams are precisely parallel. Finally, the blocking pin and a transport safety pin are inserted to keep everything perfectly aligned during packaging and shipment.
Therefore, when your loom arrives, you can be confident that the shaft and lam heights have been set correctly.
