The front feet 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.

How to install

  1. If necessary, remove the old adjuster foot by unscrewing it from the barrel nut. You may need to hold a straight screwdriver in the barrel nut slot if the foot has been screwed in tightly.
  2. You can reuse the old barrel nut if it has not been damaged, or you can slide it out of the treadle support and slide in the new one. The slot should be perpendicular to the floor.
  3. Move the lock nut to the lowest possible point on the foot.
  4. Screw the foot into the barrel nut.
  5. Adjust the lock nut to the appropriate height so your wheel sits on the floor without rocking.
