Trimmer Test
The primary purpose of the AMTRIM01A test design is to test the trimmer and grabber functions. The
goal in using this design to verify trimmer adjustments is to reduce trimmer errors down to the absolute
minimum possible. If you have more than one trimmer related error for the entire design, you should
adjust the trimmer assembly accordingly and then re-sew the AMTRIM01A on a different location of the
fabric.
It is further recommended that you make any necessary adjustments to eliminate thread break problems
while this design is running. It is recommended that this design is run while you observe it so you see
the machine behavior at the time machine errors occur in this design. However, the primary focus of this
design is to detect and eliminate trimmer and grabber related errors.
The trimmer test should be sewn with not more than one problem for the entire design. It should be
sewn on one layer of white broad cloth or equivalent with one layer of 2 oz. cut-away backing.
