Hello all,
Can someone please post or email a picture of how the thread carriage on the Forecast Power Wrapper should look. I have never used a power wrapper before or the type of tension device that is on this machine and need a visual aid to make sure i have it working correctly. Thank you and Props to Kevin at Get Bit for the sweet deal. You Rock!! J Scott Englewood, Fl Re: New Power Wrapper

Thanks George, That is the wrapper I bought. Now I just need to see how the thread is wound through the carriage. Which direction does it go around the tensioner, does it go through both of the small thread guides or just one depending on where the spool is located. If someone could send me a photo of theirs loaded with thread that would really help.
Thanks again everyone. J Scott Englewood, Fl Re: New Power Wrapper

Get Bit Outdoors shows how to thread your wrapper in video 7b rod building made easy.
FYI: I ordered the same wrapper & mine just arrived. I will probably have questions soon. Re: New Power Wrapper

Threading is easy.
From the spool the thread snaps into the tan thread guide, then between the two plates of the tensioner. As it exits the tensioner, the thread goes behind the spring, then threw the second tan thread guide. The spring keep a little tension on the thread when you stop etc. The screw on top of the tensioner adjust up and down...For greater or lesser tension on the thread. Any girl who has run a sewing machine can help you if you need more in-put. Garry2rs Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
