(3) Stitch Adjustment and where to apply lubrication.
CAUTIONDanger of being entangled.
You may be injured due to the moving parts. Disconnect
the power cable plug from the power source before starting operation so that the machine power does not come
ON accidentally.
(a)Stitch adjustment
1)The position of the head upper cam can be raised up to 3 mm from its bottom
position.
2)Needle stroke can be adjusted by sliding the head upper cam up and down
after loosening the attaching screw.
3)Stitches can be changed for some degree by the adjustments indicated above.
When the head upper cam is slid upward, the stitch becomes shorter. When
the head upper cam is slid downward, the stitch becomes longer and it gives
softer texture to the cord. Adjust so that the point of needle is always positioned lower than the top of center pole "A" at the lowermost point of the
upper cam. If this is neglected, cord may not be knitted correctly. If the head
upper cam is slid beyond the appropriate range, cord may not be knitted
correctly.
4)Stitches can be adjusted by using the speed controller also.
(b)Where to apply lubrication
To be lubricated here
REMARK: Apply lubricating oil to the designated
locations twice a day.
