3. OPERATION
A. Presser Foot
An air operated cylinder keeps the front from lifting too far while sewing. This
cylinder lifts in coordination with the foot, by heeling the foot treadle. This
arrangement allows for very high lift when inserting work, while providing
excellent control of the foot under heavy panel sewing loads.
B. Sewing Control
Sewing is controlled by the foot treadle. From this neutral position, toeing the
treadle lightly will start the machine at slow speed. Increasing toe pressure will
increase the speed up to maximum. Release the Treadle to stop sewing. As
mentioned above, heeling the treadle will lift the presser foot, while releasing the
foot hold down plunger.
The adjustable pad guide on top of the flange guide can assist in proper
placement and guidance of the pad during sewing. Work may be inserted to the
machine, either from the side or from the front.
There is no technical need to change sewing speed during sewing, either while
sewing straight or curved portions of the pad. The only limit will be the operator’s
ability to control the pad while sewing.
4. ADUSTMENTS
The following are standard adjustments for GAP3350-X5 sewing machine.
A. Fixed Stitch Count Setting
The 3350-X5 flanger is factory set for the minimum stitch count (maximum stitch
length) of which it is capable. The minimum stitch count is five (5) stitches per
inch. This setting is considered to be fixed (not adjustable). If adjustment to a
higher stitch count (shorter stitches) is required contact Galkin Automated
Products for guidance. Other feed adjustments which are factory set, and
considered not adjustable are feed dog height and differential feed.
