1) Timing relation between the needle and the feed

First screw A in operating direction on double eccentric 1 of feed drive assembly must be straight

up, when the needle bar is at bottom of stroke.

2) Adjusting the timing relation between the needle bar and looper (synchronization) : Without

gauges

When the blade point of the looper moves to the left in the rear of the needle and to the right in front

of the needle, align the upper end of the eyelet of the left needle with the lower face of the looper so

that the distance between A and B, the side of the left needle to the blade point of the looper, should

be equal.

Adjustment Procedures Results of Improper Adjustment

™ Loosen the needle bar holder screw 5 and adjust the height

of the needle bar.

(Caution) After the adjustment, check that the direction of

the needle clamp is correct and the respective

needles enter the center of the holes of the throat

plate.

™ If the distance of C is large, skip

stitching and tangling stitch may

occur.

™ If the distance of C is small, skip

stitching and tangling stitch may

occur.

™ If defective stitch occurs with the

wooly nylon thread, make the

distance C as small as possible.

™ Loosen the looper base setscrew 4 and adjust the returning

amount of the looper.

(Use a 5/32 inch hexagonal wrench.)

™ If the returning amount is large,

skipping stitch and tangling stitch

may occur and the range of the

thickness of the cloth to be sewn

is reduced.

™ If the returning amount is small,

skipping stitch and tangling stitch

may occur.

Adjustment Procedures Results of Improper Adjustment

™ Loosen the looper base setscrew 4 and adjust by moving the

looper base back and forth.

™ If the clearance is too large, the

loop of the needle thread is not

scooped and the back of the

looper hits strongly the top point

of the needle which causes the

damage of the needle point.

™ If the clearance is too small,

skipping stitch will occur due to

the damage of the tip of the

looper, the needle breakage,

and the large c learance

between the back of the looper

and the needle.

™ Loosen the two screws 6 and adjust by rotating the eccentric

pin 7.

™ Amount of the avoid increases in the direction of +.

™ Amount of the avoid reduces in the direction of –.

(Caution) After the adjustment, check again the clearance

between the blade point of the looper and the

groove of the needle. Then check the contact on

the back of the looper.

™ If the amount of the avoid is

large, the clearance of the back

of the looper and the needle

becomes large, and skipping

stitch and tangling stitch will

occur.

™ If the amount of the avoid is

small, the needle hits strongly

the back of the looper. This

causes the damage of the

needle po in t , the needle

breakage and the damage on

the back of the looper.

™ Adjust the clearance between the spreader and left needle byloosening the screw #3 and move the spreader #2 back andforth.

™ Adjust the extreme left position by loosening the screw #4 andmove the spreader #2 to the left and right.

™ If the timing is too advanced, theneedle does not catch the coveringthread when it descends. This islikely to cause the skipping stitch.On the contrary, if the timing is tooretarded, the right needle is likely tobreak as the resistance when thecovering thread is pulled from thespreader becomes large.

™ If the movement amount of thespreader is not set right, it will causeskip stitching of the top coveringthread.

™ If the height of the spreader is notset right, it will cause skip stitchingof the top covering thread.

™ If the clearance between thespreader and needle is small, it willcause the needle breakage. If it islarge, it will cause skip stitching ofthe top covering thread.

™ If the protruding amount of thespreader is large, it will causeuneven stitching of the top coveringthread. If it is small, it will cause skipstitching of the top covering thread.

Adjustment Procedures Results of Improper Adjustment

™ Incorrect adjustment couldcause breakage of spreader,defect of top cover threadtrimming or thread breakage oftop cover thread during sewing.

™ Loosen the 2 screws %3. Move the holder %4 so that the movableknife %1 can come to the center in V-shaped slot of spreader.

™ Loosen the nut %5 . Make adjustment by turning the rod %6such that the pointed end of movable knife coincides with thepointed end of stationary knife ( ±0.5 mm) when the movableknife is closed, and the movable knife catches and cuts thetop cover thread when opened. When the movable knife andstationary knife is found not to be well engaged, loosen the 2screws %8 and adjust the stationary knife %9 .

™ Adjust the retaining pressure by the screw %7 so that the topcover thread is clamped after thread trimming. (An appropriatepressure may be such that the clamp spring is 1/2 turned aftercontacting the stationary knife.)

In case of the pneumatic type™ Set the air pressure of moving knife ^0 to “0” and adjust the

knife so that it cuts the thread retained by spreader ^2.™ The trimmer activates and the hook of moving knife ^0 picks

up the thread from the underside where the thread goes fromspreader ^2 to the stitch side.

™ Loosen screws ^3 and ^4 and adjust so that the bottom ofmoving knife 0̂ should be 1.5 to 2 mm above the top surfaceof presser foot &0 when moving knife ^0 is opened to themaximum.

™ Loosen screw ^6 and adjust so that the clearance betweenthe top end of moving knife ^0 and the left side of the left needle^1 should be 0.4 to 0.8 mm. In addition, loosen screw ^5 andadjust so that the clearance between the top end of movingknife ^0 and spreader ^2 should be 0.2 to 0.4 mm. Loosenscrews ^3 and ^4 and adjust the angle of moving knife ^0 sothat it should pick up the thread retained by spreader ^2.

™ When the adjustment of the trimmer is completed, do notremove collar setscrews 4̂ since collar 8̂ holds the adjustedposition of the trimmer.

™ When removing the trimmer unit since the trimmer is not used,loosen screw ^3 and lift the main body ^0 while turning it andthere is a position where the unit is drawn. When installing theunit, adjust the groove of collar ^8 to pin ^7 on the installingbase and tighten screw ^3 to place it to the home position.

™ Similarly adjust the solenoid type needle thread trimmer.

(Caution) Adjust so that the presser foot does not interferewith the trimmer.
