1) The pedal tilt can be freely adjusted by changing the length of the connecting rod ❷.

2) Loosen adjust screw ❹, and adjust the length of connecting rod ❷.

The pedal is operated in the following four steps :

1) The machine runs at low sewing speed when you lightly depress the front part of the pedal. B

2) The machine runs at high sewing speed when you further depress the front part of the pedal. A (If the automatic

reverse feed stitching has been preset, the machine runs

at high speed after it completes reverse feed stitching.)

3) The machine stops (with its needle up or down) when you reset the pedal to its original position. C

4) The machine trims threads when you fully depress the back part of the pedal. E

* When the auto-lifer (AK device) is used, one more op-

erating switch is provided between the sewing machine

stop switch and thread trimming switch.

The presser foot goes up when you lightly depress the

back part of the pedal D, and if you further depress the

back part, the thread trimmer is actuated.

When starting sewing from the state that the presser foot

has been lifted with the Auto-lifter and you depress the

back part of the pedal, the presser foot only comes down.

• If you reset the pedal to its neutral position during the au-

tomatic reverse feed stitching at seam start, the machine

stops after it completes the reverse feed stitching.

• The machine will perform normal thread trimming even

if you depress the back part of the pedal immediately

following high or low speed sewing.

• The machine will completely perform thread trimming

even if you reset the pedal to its neutral position immedi-

ately after the machine started thread trimming action.

To check how the thread take-up spring works, draw out the needle thread in direction F after

having adjusted the thread take-up spring pressure to check whether the thread take-up spring exerts force to the thread up to the last moment (state G) just before the thread comes out from E. If the spring fails to exert force to the spring until the last moment (state H), decrease

the thread take-up spring pressure. In addition, the stroke of the thread take-up spring is

excessively small, the spring does not work properly. For the general fabrics, a stroke of 10 to

13 mm is proper.

(3) Adjusting the thread take-up stroke

1) When sewing heavy-weight materials, move thread guide ❽ to the left (in direction C) to increase the

length of thread pulled out by the thread take-up.

2) When sewing light-weight materials, move thread guide ❽ to the right (in direction D) to decrease the

length of thread pulled out by the thread take-up.

3) Conrm your entry by pressing ❻.

Then, the sewing screen is displayed.

If the condensation pitch is decreased, the phenomenon where the needle enters the same

needle entry point will likely to occur, resulting in unstable formation of thread loop at the time

of thread trimming. As a result, thread trimming fault is likely to occur. It is therefore necessary

to adjust the condensation pitch carefully. (The needle entry phenomenon differs according to

the material to be sewn and the needle count, the pitch should be increased if thread trimming

failure occurs.)

During ascending, the feed dog goes straight

up and moves in parallel in terms of longitudi-

0 to 5.00 mm : 4,000 sti/min

nal direction. When the needle penetrates the material, the

feed dog sinks straight down. As a result, the

bent-needle problem rarely occurs. The feed dog goes straight up and sinks

straight down.

Since it sinks straight down during descending,

the bent-needle problem rarely occurs.

[Adjusting the remaining length of needle thread]

Adjust the length of needle thread remaining at the

needle to 35 to 45 mm (for both the S and H types) by turning thread tension No. 1 nut ②.

1) Turn thread tension No. 1 nut ② clockwise (in direction A), to shorten the thread length remaining

on the needle after thread trimming or counterclockwise (in direction B), to lengthen the thread

length.

So-called "bird's nest phenomenon" is reduced by shortening the length of needle thread remaining at the needle. In this case, ho

wever, the needle thread is likely to slip off the needle eyelet. To reduce slip-off of the needle thread, sewing speed at the beginning of sewing should be reduced. [Memory switch]

• U286 Sewing speed during thread press-

er operation : Reduce (Factory-adjusted to 300 sti/min at the time of shipment)

• U293 Sewing speed resetting angle

when the thread presser operates : Retard (Factory-adjusted to 340 degrees at the time of shipment)

With respect to the memory switch settings, a sewing speed of 250 sti/min is recommended for "U286 Sewing speed during thread presser operation", and an angle of 720 degrees is recommended for "U293 Sewing speed resetting angle when the thread presser operates".

[Response to problems occurring at the beginning of sewing]

• In the case needle thread breakage occurs when using a thin thread or fragile thread

• In the case needle thread is not tucked on the wrong side of material

• In the case needle thread breakage occurs when starting sewing from the material end (such as sewing the

material with needle thread tucked on the undersurface of material)

If any of the aforementioned problems occurs, the assist function which works to reduce the presser foot

pressure at the beginning of sewing can be set by using the auto-lifter device (AK-154)

* The AK-154 can be optionally installed. (Part number: 40174617)

* In the case the AK-154 is not used, the presser foot pressure should be reduced to allow the needle thread

to be released smoothly. (The recommended presser foot pressure is 30 N (3 kg) or less.)

Adjust the presser foot pressure and the sewing speed appropriately to prevent insufcient feed efciency

due to jumping or other faults of the presser foot. Conrm the adjustment result by actually sewing the ma-

terial.

[How to set up the auto-lifter function]

When installing the auto-lifter device (AK),

the function of auto-lifter is actuated.

1) Turn ON the power switch.

2) Press ❾.

❾

❷❶

3) Move the cursor to ”U290” by pressing

with

❷.

Factory-set value : 20

Adjustable range : 0 to 50

The longer the lifting time is increased,

the higher the presser foot sole is brought

up above the throat plate.

1. The amount of uplift of the presser foot above the throat plate varies according to the

material thickness of the item to be sewn and the presser foot pressure. Be sure to check

the actual condition before starting sewing.

2. If the adjustment value of the operating time of the AK-154 is increased while the presser

foot pressure is high, the operating noise will become larger. Adjust the adjustment value of

the operating time of the AK-154 and the pressure foot pressure while visually checking the

needle thread.

The purpose of the adjustment of the thread trimming cam is to align marker line A on pulley cover ❺ with green marker dot B (H type : White marker dot B´) on handwheel ❻.

1) Tilt the sewing machine head.

2) Turn handwheel ❻ by hand in the normal direc-

tion of rotation until the thread take-up lever goes up slightly below the upper dead point. Press cam follower ❶ with ngers to the left (in direction of arrow E) to t roller ❷ to in groove C in thread trimming cam ❸.

3) In this state, turn handwheel ❻ in the direction

which is opposite to the normal direction of rotation until handwheel ❻ will go no further. (If the handwheel is turned further, it reaches the position at which cam follower ❶ starts moving.)

At this time, marker line A on pulley cover ❺

aligns with green marker dot B on handwheel ❻.

7-3-2. Adjustment of the thread trimming cam

timing

1) Tilt the sewing machine head.

2) Loosen the screws No.1 and No. 2 of thread trim-

ming cam setscrew ❼ in the written order.

3) Align marker line A on pulley cover ❺ with green marker dot B on handwheel ❻. (H type : White marker dot B´)

4) Pressing cam follower ❶ to the left (in the direction of arrow E), engage thread trimming cam ❸ with roller ❷. Then, turn only thread trimming cam

❸ with ngers in the direction which is opposite

to the normal direction of rotation of feed driving shaft ❹ until it will go no further without turning feed driving shaft ❹. At this position, tighten the screws No. 1 and No. 2 of thread trimming cam setscrew ❼ in the written order while pressing thread trimming cam ❸ against roller ❷.

1. In the case of using a high-count lament thread, thread loop formation may be unstable. If faulty loop spreading occurs in this state, correct the thread trimming cam timing by aligning the marker line on the pulley cover with the red marker dot, instead of the green marker dot, on the handwheel.

2. The alignment point between thread trimming cam ❸ and roller ❷ is position (F) from which cam follower ❶ starts moving. Position (G) at which you feel that thread trimming cam ❸ comes in contact with roller ❷ for the rst time during adjustment is not the correct alignment position.

Be sure to correct the thread trimming cam timing carefully since it largely affects the loop spreading timing.

The needle thread may be trimmed excessively short in the case thread such as lament thread which is likely to cause unstable thread loop formation is used or thread trimming is carried out at a position where there is no material. If the aforementioned phenomenon occurs, it should be corrected by carrying out the belowstated procedure.

• Make the thread take-up spring stroke larger than the standard value.

• Make the pitch for thread trimming during condensation stitch larger than the standard pitch.

• Turn OFF the condensation stitch operation when carrying out thread trimming at a position where there is no material.

7-3-5. Adjustment of thread trimming speed

The thread trimming speed has been adjusted to 300 sti/min (H type : 220 sti/min) at the time of shipment.

This means that the high-speed thread trimming has been selected.

Depending on the type of thread to be used, the thread trimming speed should be increased. On the other

hand, in the case of using fragile thread (such as a high-count lament type thread or cotton thread), the

thread trimming speed should be decreased to reduce damage to the thread.

Thread trimming speed should be adjusted when appropriate according to the sewing process.

3) In this state, the standard adjustment value of the

clearance between picker link ❸ and picker arm ❹ is 0.5 mm. At this time, a clearance of 0 to 0.3 mm is provided between bobbin ❺ and picker ❻.

7-4-2. Standard adjustment

1) Loosen picker link pin nut ❷ (9 mm). Carry out adjustment by moving picker link ❸ to the right and left.

2) After the adjustment, tighten picker link pin nut ❷.

7-4-3. Standard adjustment (Adjustment at the tip position)

1) Loosen picker setscrews ❼ (two pieces). Adjust the position of picker.

2) After the adjustment, tighten picker setscrews ❼ (two pieces).

1. If there is no clearance between bobbin ❺ and the tip of picker ❻, picker ❻ strongly press bobbin ❺. As a result, the bobbin fails to supply a required length of bobbin thread at the

time of thread trimming. In this case, the bobbin thread is likely to be trimmed short and

thread slip-off at the beginning of sewing is likely to occur.

2. If there is an excessively large clearance between bobbin ❺ and the tip of picker ❻, thread

required for thread trimming may slip off the tip of picker and the length of needle thread remaining at the needle tip after thread trimming will be short. In addition, bobbin ❺ is

likely to idle frequently at the time of thread trimming causing problems at the beginning of

sewing.
