3.1.1 Main switch
The main switch is located at the front side of the machine below the
working table. It is used to cut off the machine’s power supply.
3.1.2 Overload protection switch
If the motor is overloaded, the automatic protection switch reacts and
stops the sewing process. Check and repair the reason for the
overloading and put the machine into the starting position then.
The security systems of this machine work passively, that means that
they can only react on certain incidents. To achieve the required
security for your health and that of your collegues, active measures of
the operator are required.
Please obey the following general rules for the use of this machine:
1. Always work concetrated and avoid actions with a risk.
2. Don’t try to bridge existing security systems or to disable
them in any way.
3. Check all security systems on function and effectivity
before starting work.
4. Cut off the power supply before opening the power supply
unit.
5. Switch off the machine with the mains / emergency stop
switch, before executing cleaning and mainetenance duties.

Hint
Check right after receiving the machine, whether all parts according to
the parts list are complete and without damage. Later claims can’t be
accepted.
If you see damage to the transportation packing of the machine, which
indicates a possible damage to the delivered parts, don’t hesitate to
claim this to the transportation company.
4.2 Transportation
Generally it is possible to move the machine. Obey the following
hints:
1. Cut off the power supply, release the pneumatical pressure.
2. Fix movable and loose parts.

possible additional devices (e.g. stacker). If the machine is
equipped with transportation casters (option), you will have
to release the brakes at every caster.
4. Move the machine carefully to the new location.
ATTENTION
Attention when moving the machine on sloping areas! Enormous pull
power arises from the machine weight.

Page 6-3
Operating manual Automatic single head serging unit 1220/4
The production cycle of the machine is divided into several sections:
1. The operator inserts a trouser part from the right side (see
white arrow in Pict. 6) under contour guiding (C) and photo
cell (B).
2. After photo cell (B) switched dark, the sewing process starts
(needle Pos. (A) in Pict. 6); the contour guiding will be
lowered.
3. The trouser part will be sewed.
4. After the photo cell (B) switches light, the seam will be
ended and the stamp comes down.
5. The contour guiding drives up.
6. The stacker clamp advances to the front.
7. The stamp drives up.
8. The trouser part is stacked with an air-blow.
6.2.2 Program operation
The machine is operated with programs, which are stored in the
memory and can be opened by the operator. He can choose from
several possibilities:
he can select an existing program
he can change an existing program
he can create and adjust a new program
All possibilities will be explained in the following.
In the daily production process, the machine operator will only have to
select an existing program. The following programs exist as a factory
setting:
Program 1:1 main seam
Program 2:1 pre-seam with consecutive main seam
Program 3:2 pre-seams with consecutive main seam
Program 4:2 pre-seams, 1 seat seam with consecutive main
seam
Program 5:1 seat seam, 2 pre-seams with consecutive main
seam
Program 6:1 main seam without stop after photo cell lighted
The currently selected program is displayed in the left upper corner of
the display (program 1 is selected in Pict. 5).
To select a different program, you have to move the cursor on the
program number and press the ‘+’ / ‘-‘ keys repeatedly, until the
desired program number is displayed.
6.3 Create own programs
ATTENTION
The changing and creation of programs should be done by
experienced personell. The functionality of the machine can be
influenced badly by wrong programming.
Hint
All functions and options are displayed as icons in a rectangle in the
programs. Generally, a rectangle striked out twice means: function
disabled. If the rectangle isn’t striked out, the function is enabled.
To create an own program, you will first have to adjust the setup data
and then create the program. Setup data can only be displayed, if the
machine code has been entered before:
