slowly. If you have someone to help you the assembly will

■ The wood parts have a removable label on them to iden-
tify each part. We recommend that you leave the labels in
place until the loom is fully assembled.
■ When you finish assembling the Wolf loom, go back over
all of the screws and make sure they are tight. It is a good
idea to re-tighten the screws every few months. Remember
not to tighten those screws and bolts which are supposed
to allow their parts to pivot freely.
■ All wooden parts of the loom have been finely sanded
and finished with a hand-rubbed Danish oil. From time to
time you may wish to apply more finish to the loom. Use a
Danish oil (tung oil and polyurethane mixture) and hand
rub the wood with a soft, lint-free cloth. Be sure to follow all
the manufacturer's instructions.
