(Counter-balanced, Jack-type or Jack-type with back hinge treadles )


The Nilus II 4s is available in two versions- Jack or counterbalance. The 8s loom is available in 3 ver-
sions - Jack, Jack with Back Hinge Treadles and Countermarche. The Nilus II loom has been designed
with a stabilizer foot, for better stability. The shed is always good with any tie-up combination. The
counter-balanced version is built with an integrated shed regulator, so it is possible to weave any kind
of material. On the jack-type version, the top can be easily removed, allowing easy access to the shafts
for the addition or removal of heddles. Heddles used are 12½" (31.7 cm) long. It is a loom with indepen-
dent shafts, guided by pegs at each side, preventing friction of the frames which are pushed upwards
by an underneath mechanism. All Nilus II looms have non-sliding polyvinyl foot pads under the uprights
to keep it solid on the floor. It is equipped with a friction brake giving perfect tension every time. The
front cloth beam and back thread beam are removable for easy threading, and the warp beam is also
removeable for outside beaming when required. All looms are equipped with a regular plain beam to
which a set of rake-like pieces can be added to convert it into a sectional warp beam. Special kits have
been designed to convert the regular 4 shaft jack-type into an 8 shaft jack-type loom. A new back hinge
treadle kit is also available. Any Nilus II 8 shaft can be upgraded to a back hinge treadle loom.

NILUS II 36”, 45” and 60” JACK-TYPE
WITH BACK HINGE TREADLES
As with all Loom designs there are some trad-
eoffs. With the Jack Loom the problem most
often cited was the difficulty in getting a good
shed with 6+ Shaft weave construction. Our
new design has overcome this problem.

The new design features the Treadles anchored


at the rear of the Loom, with a new unique,
Rocker mechanism that insures even tension on
all Treadle Cords with the Treadles in both the
rest or depressed position.

This new design provides the weaver with the


ease of Leg Treadling multi Shaft designs, com-
parable to that of a 4 shaft.

In addition, a wide, clean shed is obtained on all


Shafts. Using a new procedure, the new Treadle
design retains the folding feature designed into
the original Nilus II.

We, at Leclerc, are very excited about this


new Jack Loom Treadling concept. This
system is also available on the Nilus and
Artisat loom.

COUNTERMARCHE BACK HINGE TREADLES
Our countermarche system has only one set of lams,
two sets of pulleys above the shafts and one set of pul-
leys below. In a countermarche loom, every shaft is
actively involved in each shed: each shaft is either lifted
or pulled down by each pedal. Uneven sheds like 3
shafts against 1 are always large and clean .Because
you actually lift or pull down every shaft, you never have
any problem with one shaft floating when it should not.
More details are in our technical report page 4.
