Risk Assessment

Identify risks
State control measures

(Note: The following is effectively the contents of the induction process, if it exists)

Before Use

Please note in the calendar if you are planning on using it, and try and finish your weaving in one session.

Secure the loom and the winding pole properly to each end of the table before setting up the warp

During Use

You’re going to be sitting for a while, make sure to sit comfortably. When winding the loom forward, make sure to release the back temporarily so you don’t break your fabric or the loom.

After Use
Make sure to pack all the loose bits in the box, and put the main loom back on the shelf.

Maintenance
May need a bit of re oiling every now and then, if any parts break they can be reordered, @Maz knows how to put it all together.
