Assembling a Suzie & Suzie Professional
1. Prepare the components
These instrucons demonstrate how to assemble your Majacra Suzie and Suzie Professional

2. Insert handle stop
We recommend that you nd a clear work area where you can lay out all the components for
working on them.
The following tools are provided by Majacra
- 4mm allen T-wrench
- 3mm allen T-wrench
- 2mm allen T-wrench
You will also need the following tools:
- Posidrive (Philips) screwdriver
Your wheel has been assembled at our workshop; it has been tested; it has been spun on; all screws
have been pre-ed and some have been removed for paral disassembly.
Please unpack with care and retain the packaging. In the box will be:
Required:
1 - M6 25mm JCB (1”) bolt (in the hardware bag)
4mm allen T-wrench
Stem/Handle/Drive wheel assembly

1 Base/Pedal assembly
1 Stem/Handle/Drive wheel assembly (SHDW assembly)
4 Plasc Bobbins

Remove the handle nut and then slide the drive wheel out of the SHDW assembly. Place the handle
and nut to one side. There is a small star washer on the drive sha, take care it does not drop o
when you remove the drive wheel or remain stuck to the black acetyl bush.
Check the star washer is sll on the drive sha. Now slide the drive
wheel and drive sha back into the stem/handle assembly. When
the drive sha is in place then screw the front handle nut on and
ghten it up.

Turn the handle assembly over so the small threaded hole near the handle pivot is on the boom and
posion the handle so it makes a 90 degree angle between the stem and handle. Using the T-wrench,
carefully screw the 25mm JCB bolt in unl it is ght.

Posion the Base assembly on the at surface. Now
slide the SHDW assembly into the Base assembly
and carefully align the stem holes with the base side
plate holes. Insert the JCB bolts through the holes
and into the SHDW assembly. Parally ghten the
bolts, checking that they are threaded in correctly
before nally ghtening all bolts.
Required:
4 - M6x30mm JCB (1 1/4”) bolts (in the hardware bag)
4mm allen T-wrench
Stem/Handle/Drive wheel assembly
Base/Pedal assembly

assembly as the narrow end of the pedals.

The spinning head can be raised or lowered to suit
the tensioning of the drive belt and the height at
which you wish to spin.
The M6 60mm bolt and wood spacer are aached
to the handle. You must remove it rst. Take the
spinning head and slide it down into the handle.
Push the JCB bolt in a lile way through the hole
in the top of the handle. Align the wooden spacer
tube in the handle so the bolt will can be pushed
through the centre.
Screw the JCB bolt into place without ghtening it
fully. Posion the head near the top of the handle
and then ghten the JCB bolt rmly. There is no
need to over-ghten this.

6. Drive Band
Required:
1 - Green drive band (in the hardware bag)
The green drive band goes on the grooves on the drive wheel and
then through one of the grooves on the whorl. It is important that
the drive belt is reasonably ght otherwise the treadling will feel
heavy.

When you slide the pulley on the yer sha, it is important that
the grub screw is lined up above the at that has been ground on
the yer sha. When the pulley is correctly aligned, use the allen
key to ghten the grub screw.

The drive wheel has been predrilled with the holes which line up with the holes on the crank
assembly. Make sure the drive belt is on before starng!
Align the holes on the drive wheel with the holes in
the crank assembly and screw it into place using the
3mm Allen key. It is recommended that you insert
the centre bolt rst. This will reduce your chances of
possibly scratching your drive wheel.
Do not fully ghten the centre bolt unl you have aligned and started screwing in the two bolts on the
sides.
When the three bolts are all in place, you can nish ghtening
them up.
The green joiners have already been put in place in the wooden conrods. Place the wheel in front of
you so the crank and drive wheel are facing you.
We will start with the pedal on your le hand side. Select the conrod that is CLOSEST to YOU. It is on
the end of the curved arm and is aached to the crank assembly with the special right angle rod end
connector. Push the green joiner into the hole at the end of the pedal on your le unl it protrudes by
about 2mm. Screw the 25mm gold screw into the hole on the side of the pedal so it holds the green
joiner in place.

Now work on the pedal on your right. Obviously there will only be one available conrod now. The
one that is CLOSEST to the DRIVE WHEEL. Push the green joiner through the hole in the pedal end
into the right hand pedal. It should protrude through the boom of the pedal about 2mm. Check
the alignment of the rod end in the crank assembly as shown in the images below. You may need to
twist the green joiner in the pedal to correct the alignment. When the rod end is aligned correctly -
parallel with the face of the drive wheel - screw the 25mm screw into place. The screw should only
be ghtened unl the head just touches the side of the pedal. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN!
EXTRA
If you are not certain of the connecon arrangement, here is a
full descripon. Place the wheel directly in front of you so you are
looking at the crank assembly aached to the drive wheel. The
rubber joiner that is on the conrod that is closest to you goes into
the hole in the pedal on your le. The joiner on the conrod that is
furthest from you goes into the hole in the pedal that is on your
right.

Slip the two brass bobbin bars into the bobbin storage block on
the base assembly.

At this point screw the yer on to the yer sha. It may help to hold the whorl with your le hand
and ghten the yer with your right (assuming you are right handed). It may also be treadled on by
holding the yer in one hand and treadling the wheel in an anclockwise direcon.
Required:
1 - Bobbin

If you have some petroleum jelly or vaseline, rub a
small smear onto the yer sha. This has already
been done at the factory so is not essenal. Now
slide the bobbin on.
Required:
2 - Bobbin bars (in the hardware bag)

spinning adventure! From the team at Majacra, we wish you great spinning in the future.
At this point, we recommend that you polish your
Suzie or Suzie Professional using Majacra Lavender

not essenal, it will help keep your wheel looking
beauful into the future.
