PLEASE READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS
PRIOR TO BEGINNING INSTALLATION
1. This instruction booklet contains two dierent sets of instructions. Be sure
that you are following the correct instruction set for your loom before begin-
ning any installation.
2. This kit contains parts to attach a Wolf Stroller to the Wolf Pup, Wolf Pup LT,
Baby Wolf, and Mighty Wolf looms. Not all of the included parts are needed to
attach the stroller to every loom; there may be parts left over when you have
nished.
3. Wolf loom legs are called out by where they cross each other. The legs that
touch the ground at the front of the loom are called “inside” legs because they
are covered by the “outside” legs when they cross at the loom center.
4. 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 using the tem-
plate on the last page.
5. The Wolf Pup 8.10 loom has its own Wolf Pup 8.10 Stroller (FL3052), with a
dierent instruction booklet. If you received this booklet with your Wolf Pup
8.10 Stroller, please call or visit the Schacht website for the correct booklet.

BABY WOLF AND MIGHTY WOLF LOOMS
Assembly InstructIons
1. Install the Wolf Stroller on a hard sur-
face. Open the loom to weaving position
(see front cover illustration). When you
are working on the front caster blocks,
set the treadle bar on a block of wood or
a couple of books to raise the front of the
loom about two inches. Set books/wood
block under the rear leg brace when you
are working on the back caster blocks.
2. Install the caster blocks to the inside legs
and the treadle bar. Locate the trusshead
bolt (B) that attaches the inside leg to
the treadle bar on the outside of the leg
1" from the bottom (Figure 1, page 2).
Remove the bolt from the leg. The barrel
nut that held the bolt slips out of the un-
derside 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 oor. Line
up the hole (C) at the bottom of the block
to the hole (B) in the leg and insert a new
3" machine screw though the caster block
and the leg into the treadle bar (gures 1
and 2). Using a at screwdriver to hold the
barrel nut in place, tighten the bolt into the
barrel nut. Repeat for the other inside leg.
3. Install the caster blocks to the outside
legs and the rear leg brace. Remove the
trusshead bolts (B) holding the rear
leg brace to the outside legs (Figure 1,
page 2). This time you will install the
caster block with a new 3" machine screw
through the center hole (D, Figure 3).
Tighten the bolt rmly into the barrel nut.
Repeat for the other outside leg.
4. Attach the top of each of the four caster
blocks to the loom legs. Put a 2-¼" carriage
bolt through the hole (H) in the legs from
the inside, then through the top hole (A)
in the caster block. Tap the carriage bolt

into the loom leg using a rubber mallet or
hammer and a piece of scrap wood. 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 (Figure 4). Note: When
installing the caster block on the
inside right leg, depress the brake re-
lease pedal or undo the brake release
cord from the pedal, to allow easier
access to the hole (H).Repeat for the
other three caster blocks. If you detached
the brake release cord from the pedal,
reattach it.
5. Attach the metal support bar to the
rear caster block. From the inside of the
loom, insert a 1-½" hex bolt through the
hole (G) in the rear caster block. Place a
washer on the bolt and then place the cir-
cular 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 (Figure 5). Repeat for the
other rear caster
block.
6. 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 1-¾” hex bolt through the hole (G) in
the front caster block. Secure the hex bolt
with a washer and a lock nut. Place a ¼”
wing nut on the bolt (Figure 6). Repeat
Step 5 for the other front caster block.
7. Using the stroller. (Figure 13, page
7) 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 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 these bolts,
replace the wing nut and tighten.
Your Wolf loom is now ready to travel. •FIGURE 6

WOLF PUP /WOLF PUP LT LOOMS
Assembly InstructIons
1. Install the Wolf Stroller on a hard
surface. Open the loom to weaving
position (see front cover illustration).
2. Attach the caster blocks to the inside legs
and the treadle bar. Locate the trusshead
bolt (B) that attaches the inside leg to the
treadle bar (Figure 1, page 2). Remove the
bolt from the leg. The barrel nut that held
the bolt slips out of the underside of the
treadle bar. Discard the bolt and keep the
barrel nut.
3. Set a caster block on the outside of
the leg, with the caster wheel toward the
front and on the oor. Line up the hole (C)
at the bottom of the block to the hole (B,
Figure 1, page 2) in the leg and insert a
new 3" machine screw though the caster
block and into the treadle bar (Figure 7).
Using a at screwdriver to hold the barrel
nut in place, tighten the bolt into the
barrel nut. Repeat for the other inside leg.
4. Attach the caster blocks to the outside legs
and the rear leg brace. Remove the trusshead
bolts (D) holding the rear leg brace to both
outside legs (Figure 1, page 2).
5. Attach the right rear caster block
with a new 4" machine screw through the
bottom hole (C) and with the caster wheel
towards the back and on the oor (Figure
8). Tighten the bolt into the barrel nut so
that the stroller rotates but is not loose.

NOTE: Follow steps 6–8 only if you
are adding strollers to a Wolf Pup or
Wolf Pup LT sold prior to December
2016. If you are working on a loom
sold after that date, skip ahead to
step #9.
NOTE: If you installed wheels on
your Wolf Pup loom, we recommend
that you take them o before
installing your Wolf Stroller.

6. Drill upper hole to secure rear caster
blocks. Assemble the black plastic spacer
onto the 2-½" hex bolt. Slide the bolt
through hole (G) from the inside of the
loom, and tighten a wing nut down on the
exposed bolt (Figure 9).
7. Rotate the caster block until the
black plastic spacer comes to rest as a
stop against the loom leg. Hold a piece
of scrap wood against the inside of the
outside leg to prevent blowing out the
wood when you drill; clamp the caster
block and scrap wood into this position.
8. Using the top hole (A) as a drill guide,
drill a ¼" hole through the outside rear
leg. Remove the plastic spacer, bolt, and
wing nut. Repeat steps 5–8 for the caster
block on the left outside leg.
9. Attach the top of the caster blocks to
the loom legs. Put a 2-¼" carriage bolt
through the holes (H) in the legs from
the inside, then through the top hole (A)
in the caster blocks (Figure 10). Tap the
carriage bolt into the loom leg using a
rubber mallet or hammer and a piece of
scrap wood. 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.
10. Attach the metal support bar to the rear
caster block (Figure 11). From the inside
of the loom, insert a 1-½" 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 over the bolt so that the jog in
the bar points inward. Secure with another
washer and a lock nut. Tighten the lock
nut, allowing the support bar to still pivot
freely without
being loose.
Repeat for the
other rear caster
block.

11. Attach the bolt to hold the front of the
metal support bar when the loom is folded
(Figure 12). From the inside of the loom,
insert a 1-¾" hex bolt through the hole
(G) in the front caster block. Secure the
hex bolt with a washer and a lock nut.
Place a ¼" wing nut on the bolt. Repeat for
the other front caster block.
12. Using the stroller (Figure 12). 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 sitting on its stroller
wheels. Remove the wing nut from the
bolt at (G) on the front caster blocks.
Place the ovular slots at the front end of
each metal support bar over the bolts,
replace the wing nuts and tighten.
Your Wolf loom is now ready to travel. •
