Assembly Instructions

Install the Wolf Stroller on a hard surface.
Open the loom to weaving position (see illustration above). When you are working on the front caster blocks set the treadle bar on a block of wood (approximately 2 x 4) to raise the front of the loom. Set the wood block under the rear leg brace when you are working on the back caster blocks.
Install the stroller caster blocks to the front legs and the treadle bar.
Locate the truss-head bolt (B) that attaches the front leg to the treadle bar (on the outside of the leg 1” from the bottom) (Diagram 1). Remove the bolt from the leg and note that the “barrel nut” that held the bolt also slips out of the underside of the treadle bar. Discard the bolt and keep the barrel nut. Set a caster block on the outside of the leg, with the caster wheel toward the front and the floor. Line up the hole (C) at the bottom of the block to the hole (B) in the leg and insert a new 1/4” x 3” machine screw though the caster block and the leg into the treadle bar (Diagrams 1 and 2). Using a flat screwdriver to hold the barrel nut in place, tighten the bolt into the barrel nut. Repeat for the other front caster block.

Diagram 1
Install the caster blocks to the back legs and the rear leg brace.
Repeat the installation instructions for the front casters to remove the truss-head bolt (B) from the back leg and the rear leg brace. This time you will install the caster block with the new 3” machine screw through the center hole (D). Tighten the bolt firmly into the barrel nut. Repeat Step 3 to attach the second rear caster block.

Attach the top of each of the four casters to the loom leg.
Put a 2 1/4" carriage bolt through the hole (H) in the leg from the inside, then through the top hole (A) in the caster block. Place a washer and a lock nut on the carriage bolt and tighten the lock nut enough to draw the head of the carriage bolt into the wood of the leg (Diagrams 2 and 3). Note: when installing the caster block on the right front leg, depress the brake release pedal, or undo the brake release cord from the pedal, to allow easier access to the hole (H). Repeat Step 4 for the other three caster blocks. Reattach the brake pedal.

Diagram 3

Attach the bolt to hold the front of the metal support bar when the loom is folded.
From the inside of the loom insert a 1 3/4" hex bolt through the hole (G) in the front caster block. Secure the hex bolt with a washer and a lock nut. Place a 1/4” wing nut on the bolt (Diagram 2). Repeat Step 5 for the other front caster block.
Attach the metal support bar to the rear caster block.
From the inside of the loom insert a 1 1/2" hex bolt through the hole (G) in the rear caster block. Place a washer on the bolt and then place the circular hole at the end of the metal support bar (S) over the bolt so that the jog in the bar points inward. Secure with a lock nut. Tighten the lock nut, allowing the support bar to pivot (Diagram 3). Repeat for the other rear caster block.
To use the stroller:
Fold the loom. Tighten the fold-up knobs and secure the slide lock bars to prevent the loom from opening. You will notice that the loom is now automatically sitting on its stroller wheels. Remove the wing nut from the bolt at (G) on the front caster blocks. Place the slots at the front end of each metal support bar over the these bolts, replace the wing nuts and tighten.
Your Wolf loom is now ready to travel.

If you are attaching both a height extender and a stroller, you will first attach the stroller to the height extender legs, and then attach the height extender to the loom. Please see the Height Extender Instructions before proceeding with these instructions.

Note: For Baby Wolf looms with serial numbers lower than 4-1608, 4-4-1609, and 8-546, you will need to drill holes in the front and rear legs for the caster blocks (all other looms have pre-drilled holes). Use a 1/4" drill bit and this template.
