Results of Improper Adjustment
Caution : Be sure to cut off air supply and start the work when
replacing the wiper.
①
Replace the wiper base and the wiper with the optional parts.
For the setscrews, use setscrews
1
,
2
and
3
without replacing
them.
(Part No.) Wiper base
: 14445902
Thread clamp wiper asm.
: 14446157
* Wiper action direction is the same as that of the standard.
①
Adjust the position of the wiper, at the stop position, to the
following places.
• Clearance provided between the wiper and the needle is 1
mm or more.
• Adjust the wiper to 22.5 mm from the top surface of the throat
plate.
(For adjusting procedure, refer to the Instruction Manual for
LK-1941/42.)
②
Clearance C provided between the needle and the wiper
becomes smaller than the tandard adjustment value, and the
height of the top end of the wiper is lowered since the wiper
retains the thread.
Accordingly, the feeding frame may interfere with the wiper when
the feeding frame goes up. Adjust the height of the feeding
frame to 15 mm or less from the top surface of the throat plate.
(For adjusting procedure, refer to the Instruction Manual for
LK-1941/42.)
③
When the thread is hard to slip or easy to slip from the wiper at
the start of sewing, adjust the wiper by correcting thread clamp
spring
1
in the direction of arrow mark B.
™
When the position of the wiper
is improper, thread retaining
failure will be caused.
™
When the height of the feeding
frame is excessively high, it
interferes with the wiper and
w i p e r m a l f u n c t i o n w i l l b e
caused.
™
When adjustment of the thread
clamp spring is improper, the
spring causes thread not to be
retained or needle thread to
remain on the sewing product.
