David III / David 3 - assembly instructions

July 2023 A new David III assembly video and download the new improved assembly manual with user instructions. 

Improvements David III July 2023:

• Locking nuts on the lam cords - locking nuts are used so that we can better set the correct nut position in the factory and that nut position will not change during shipping.   Once installed the locking nut has little function.  Therefore older David 3 looms do not suddenly need this locking nut.
• Higher tension on the springs in the castle - to prevent 2 shafts from being pulled down dogether.
• Jig for the beater height adjustment - also only needed in a new setup
• New assembly manual and video, including user instructions and part lists

Chapter 7 in the video and in the assembly instructions gives detailed instructions on how to adjust the shaft heights - read the instructions in the download and watch this chapter on the video

In the extra video 'David 3 harnes adjustments and more' (recorded 2022) information about:

• Blocking pin
• The first part about shaft height adjustment is better and more extensive in the new assembly video (chapter 7)
• Small shed adjustment spring tension
• Adjusting the beater
• Advancing the warp - brake lever user instructions
