Standard Adjustment
Results of lmproper Adjustment
1. Adjusting the height of the spreader
2. Adjusting the longitudinal position of the spreader
Loosen setscrew
3
and adjust the height and longitudinal position
of the spreader
1
.
3. Protruding amount of the spreader
Loosen setscrew
4
in the spreader folder and adjust the protruding
amount. Adjust aiming the adjustment figure of 5 mm.
4. Adjusting the spreader stroke
Standard position is the position where the engraved marker line of
spreader drive lever
5
aligns with the center of the shaft of
connecting pin
6
. When desired to increase the stroke, loosen
lock nut
7
and move in the right direction. When desired to decrease
the stroke, loosen lock nut
7
and move in the left direction. Adjust
aiming the adjustment figure of 17 mm.
5. Adjusting the timing between the needle bar and the spreader
When changing the timing, loosen two setscrews
9
in spreader
eccentric cam
8
to adjust. Standard position is the position where
notch
!0
in the main shaft aligns with notch
!1
in spreader eccentric
cam. When changing, turn the upper pulley and change with
spreader eccentric cam
8
fixed.
™
Height of the spreader is improper,
stitch skipping of spreader occurs.
™
Adjust the height in accordance with
the needle gauge.
™
Even when the protruding amount is
excessive or insufficient, stitch
skipping of spreader will be caused.
™
When the protruding amount is
insufficient, it will be the cause for left
needle not to scoop covering thread
at overlapped section.
™
When the stroke is increased, disorder
of covering thread stitching will be
caused.
™
When the stroke is decreased, stitch
skipping of spreader will be caused.
™
When the timing is excessively
advanced, needle does not take
covering thread when it comes down
and stitch skipping will be caused.
™
When the timing is excessively
retarded, resistance increases when
covering thread slips out from the
spreader and a load is applied to the
right needle. As a result, needle
breakage or stitch skipping will be
caused.
(Caution) When changing, temporarily
tighten No. 2 screw in the
rotation direction of setscrews
