K r a h – n m. In this case it must be understood that when the two guides h and K are together, joined as you see, h wishes to pull and K wishes to release. But know that h would never draw the shuttle's load to itself if it did not lock into a, by means of the spring pushed by the bevel m. But that bevel m, when the shuttle was given to h, did not touch the spring a — for if it had touched it, that spring would have risen and h could not have locked. But when h receives the shuttle, it does not lock without a little motion up along the bevel, and in this time K, thrusting, accompanies it, and in accompanying it K moves out of the bevel n and remains unlocked; and a, at the same time, locks and draws its shuttle to the full motion; and at the same time K draws back so far that the treadle strikes, and then it comes forward a little to meet h, which returns to give it the shuttle again. And its coming forward to meet a is as much travel as it goes down the bevel to unlock itself.

Let a fine needle with two windows [eyes] serve as the center of the shuttle. And let this needle be joined with one of the two horns of the shuttle, and after it has been threaded into its little tube, let it be locked from the opposite side.
