3 Operation

3.1 Threading needle thread

CAUTION Risk of injury due to sharp and moving parts!
Punctures and crushing are possible. Only thread the needle thread with the machine
switched off.
To thread the needle thread:
1. Plug the thread reels onto the thread reel holders and feed
the needle and hook threads through the unwinding bracket.
The unwinding bracket must stand horizontally above the
thread reels.
2. Thread the needle thread as shown in the following figure.
Fig. 1: Threading needle thread
(1) -
Silicone lubricator (optional)
3. Pull the needle thread approx. 4 cm through the needle after
threading. This ensures reliable sewing-on.
4. When using silicone oil, also thread the needle thread through
the optional silicone oiler (1).

3.2 Setting the needle thread tension

Fig. 2: Setting the needle thread tension
(1) - Preliminary tensioner (2) - Preliminary tensioner
Preliminary tension of the needle thread
With an open primary tensioner (2) a small amount of residual tension of the needle thread is required. The residual tension is generated by the preliminary tensioner (1).
The preliminary tension also affects the length of the cut needle thread end (starting thread for the next seam).
To set the preliminary needle thread tension:
1. Turn the preliminary tensioner (1) clockwise (– direction) for
a shorter starting thread.
2. Turn the preliminary tensioner (1) counterclockwise
(+ direction) for a longer starting thread.
Primary tension of the needle thread
To set the primary needle thread tension:
1. Set the primary tension of the needle thread (2) to be as low
as possible. The thread interlacing should be exactly in the middle of the material being sewn. With thin sewn material, excessive thread tension can lead to undesired ruffing and thread bre­akages.
16 Operating Instructions 512/532 - 05.0 - 04/2018
Page 19
Operation
Opening the needle thread tensioner
The primary tensioner (2) is automatically opened during thread cutting.

3.3 Setting the thread regulator

CAUTION Risk of injury due to sharp parts!
Cutting is possible. Only thread the needle thread with the machine
switched off.
Fig. 3: Setting the thread regulator
(1) - Thread regulator (2) - Thread tensioning spring
The thread regulator (1) regulates the amount of needle thread required for forming the stitch. An optimum sewing result is only possible when the thread regulator is exactly adjusted.
Operating Instructions 512/532 - 05.0 - 04/2018 17
(3) - Screw
Page 20
Operation
③④ ⑤
With the correct setting the needle thread loop must slide over the thickest part of the hook at low tension.
To set the needle thread regulator:
1. Loosen the screw (3).
2. Adjust the position of the thread regulator (1).
Thread regulator to the left = larger amount of needle thread Thread regulator to the right = smaller amount of needle thread
3. Tighten the screw (3).
Adjustment note:
When the maximum thread quantity is required then the thread tension spring (2) must be pulled approx. 0.5 mm down from its upper end position. This occurs when the needle thread loop passes the maximum hook diameter.

3.4 Winding the hook thread

Fig. 4: Winding the hook thread
(1) - Thread clamp (2) - Bobbin
18 Operating Instructions 512/532 - 05.0 - 04/2018
(3) - Winder shaft
To wind the hook thread:
1. Fit the bobbin (2) on the bobbin shaft (3).
2. Pull the thread through the guide (5) and around the
tensioner (6).
(4) - Bobbin lever (5) - Guide (6) - Tensioner
Page 21
Operation
3. Wind the thread counterclockwise approx. 5 x around the bob-
bin core (2).
4. Press the bobbin lever (4) into the bobbin.
5. Start sewing.
The bobbin winder stops automatically when the configured
bobbin filling length has been reached (see Service manual).
6. Tear off the thread at the thread clamp (1) after winding.
Note
If the thread must be wound without sewing then the thread winding mode can be set in the controller. See chapter bobbin winding (S. 35).

3.6 Setting the hook thread tension

CAUTION Risk of injury due to sharp and moving parts!
Cutting or crushing are possible. Only set the hook thread tensioner with the
machine switched off.
Fig. 6: Setting the hook thread tension
Operation
(1) - Tension spring (2) - Regulating screw
The required hook thread tension must be generated by the ten­sioning spring (1). The bobbin housing upper section (3) should slowly fall under its own weight when held by the threaded hook thread.
Adjusting the tensioning spring
To adjust the tensioning spring:
1. Remove the bobbin housing upper section (3) with the bobbin.
2. Adjust the tensioning spring (1) via the adjustment screw (2)
until the correct tension is set.
3. Insert the bobbin housing upper section (3).

NOTICE
Property damage may occur!
Damage to the clamp if the sewing field size does not match the clamp feet.
Check the clamping foot and adjust if necessary.
Seam appearances can externally created and edited on a PC, e.g. using MS Excel or a text editor.
Each line represents a stitch coordinate in the X and Y directions. The seam appearance has a maximum size of 400 x 3 00 x 1/10 mm.
Negative values and comma-separated values must not be ente­red.
Information
The operator does not need to perform any calculations in order to center the seam appearance. The machine automatically cen­ters the seam appearance in the middle of the sewing field. To subsequently relocate the seam appearance, see chapter saving seam appearances (S. 38).

WARNING Risk of injury from sharp parts!
Punctures and cutting possible. Prior to any maintenance work, switch off the
machine or set the machine to threading mode.
WARNING Risk of injury from moving parts!
Crushing possible. Prior to any maintenance work, switch off the
machine or set the machine to threading mode.
This chapter describes maintenance work that needs to be carried out on a regular basis to extend the service life of the machine and achieve the desired seam quality.
Advanced maintenance work may only be carried out by qualified specialists (Service Instructions).

5.1 Cleaning

WARNING Risk of injury from flying particles!
Flying particles can enter the eyes, causing injury. Wear safety goggles.
Hold the compressed air gun so that the particles do not fly close to people. Make sure no particles fly into the oil pan.
NOTICE
Property damage from soiling!
Lint and thread remnants can impair the operation of the machine.
Clean the machine as described.
NOTICE
Maintenance
Property damage from solvent-based cleaners!
Solvent-based cleaners will damage paintwork. Use only solvent-free substances for cleaning.
Lint and thread remnants should be removed after every 8 hours of operation using a compressed air gun or a brush. When sewing very fluffy material, the machine should be cleaned more frequent­ly.
A clean sewing machine provides protection from faults.
Points that need to be cleaned particularly thoroughly:
• Area under the throat plate (1)
• Area around the hook (2)
• Bobbin housing and interior
• Thread cutter
• Area around the needle

5.2 Lubricating

CAUTION Risk of injury from contact with oil!
Oil can cause a rash if it comes into contact with skin.
Avoid skin contact with oil. If oil has come into contact with your skin, wash the affected areas thoroughly.
NOTICE
Property damage from incorrect oil!
Incorrect oil types can result in damage to the machine. Only use oil that complies with the data in the instructions.
CAUTION Risk of environmental damage from oil!
Oil is a pollutant and must not enter the sewage system or the soil.
Carefully collect up used oil. Dispose of used oil and oily machine parts in accordance with national regulations.
The machine is equipped with a central oil-wick lubrication system. The bearings are supplied from the oil reservoir.
For topping off the oil reservoir, use only lubricating oil DA 10 or oil of equivalent quality with the following specifications:
• Viscosity at 40 °C:10 mm2/s
• Flash point: 150 °C
