The service manual on hand describes the adjustment of the automatic
buttonholer 580 in an appropriate sequence.
ATTENTION !
Various setting positions are interdependent.
Therefore it is absolutely necessary to make the individual
adjustments following the described order.
The operations described in this service manual must only be
executed by qualified staff or correspondingly instructed persons
respectively!
Attention: Danger of breakage !
Before recommissioning of the automatic buttonholer after
disassembly operations first carry out the necessary adjustments
according to these service instructions.
Before all setting operations of parts involved in the stitch
formation:
–
Insert a new needle without any damage.
Caution: Danger of injury !
In case of repair, alteration and maintenance work:
–
Adjusting operations and function tests when the machine is
running
–
Adjusting operations in the needle zone
–
1.1Necessary program setting

–
Turnthemainswitchoff.
Exception:
Adjustments carried out with the help of test or adjusting programs.
Carry out adjusting operations and function tests of the running
machine only under observation of all safety measures and with
utmost caution.
In order to avoid injuries remove the corresponding parts before
carrying out adjusting operations.
Exception:
The parts are absolutely necessary for the adjusting operations.
Buttonhole without bartack
Connecting stitch = 0
No cutting space
Set the connecting stitch to “wide” (see chapter 9 “Setting the seam
width”)

2.Adjusting the locking positions
2.1General notes
3
With the help of the locking positions an easy adjustment of the needle
motion to the looper and spreader motions is possible.
When the arm shaft is in locking position, the rotary thread take-up
disc and the eccentrics for the spreaders, the loopers and the
connecting stitch have to be in locking position, too.
The positions have been set by the manufacturer in such a way that
standard material can be sewn with the 580.
If you want to use other needle sizes, thread sizes or materials, you
may have to set positions slightly differing from the staking-out
position.
The locking pins are included in the accessories of the machine and
have a diameter of 5 mm.
