2.7.- Set Up and Operating
It is important that the machine operator and sewing mechanical read this manual and is familiar with all
the functions and safety concerns of the unit before operating.
2.7.1.- Power Up Procedure

Before turning on the power, make sure the machine is clean and free from any debris that will
cause problems running the machine.

Make sure all electric eyes are clean from any dust and debris.

Check to make sure there is enough oil in both sewing machines.

Check both waste containers to make sure they are empty.

Press the green power button located on the main Start / Stop Control Panel assembly.
2.7.2.- Border loading Procedure

Cut the existing border in the machine approx. 10”-12” from the entrance to the border encoder
assembly.

Open the prefeed rollers using the manual button located on the prefeed assembly and remove
the existing material.

Load the new roll of material onto the border roll support rod and thread the material thru the
prefeed guide and roller assembly.
Be sure to adjust the prefeed border guide for different
width border material if needed.

Thread the new border material thru the border tension rods and pull enough slack thru the
prefeed rollers to make sure the border material (prefeed loop) is almost touching the floor
(approx 4 feet).
Be sure to adjust the tension assembly border guides for different width
border material if needed.

Splice the old border material to the new border material using an appropriate border splicing
method like staples, Dennison clips, etc. Make sure that the new border material is placed on
TOP of the old border material to prevent the splice from hanging on anything while sewing.

Use the manual sew pedal to sew the slack border material until the splice is completely thru the
sew heads and main feed puller assembly
. Be sure to adjust the left sewing head width
position and the handle load assembly border guide for different width border material if
needed.

Close the prefeed rollers.

Use the manual sew pedal again to sew a few inches until the border material is properly
tensioned by the tension roller assembly.
