3.2 Needle and thread mechanism
3.2.1 Description
The take-up lever (1) is mounted in ball bearings both at the
spot of being suspended on the connecting rod (2) and at its
being mounted on the crank (3). The take-up lever is of alumi-
num and is provided with an eye for passing the thread.
The connecting rod (2) is mounted on the pin (4) in the
machine arm. The holder of the take-up lever (5) is fastened
with the pin (6) in the machine arm (7). In the upper part, the
needle bar holder (5) is fixed in its correct position with the
screw (8) in the pin (9) fastened on the machine arm.
The connecting rod (10) of the needle bar (11) is mounted on
the crank (3) in a ball bearing, on the needle bar carreer it is
mounted in a sliding way. The greasing system of the mecha-
nism is central with a wick.
3.2.2 To check the handwheel angular adjustment
The handwheel (5) must be situated in its precise position
relative to the needle and thread mechanism. This position is
given by a pin (2), which locks the connecting rod of the
needle rod (1) through a hole in the arm (3). In this position,
the indicator (6) of the handwheel must show O. The position
is fixed by the handwheel screw (4) contacting a small flat
surface provided on the upper shaft.
The correct adjustment of the angular position has been car-
ried out at the producers.
Caution ! Danger of injury!
Switch off the main switch! Before starting the
setting operation, wait until the motor stops!
3.2.3 Height setting of the needle bar
At the moment, when the hook point passes around the needle,
the upper edge of the needle eye must be about 1 mm below
the hook point. In an opposite case, it is necessary to set the
height of the needle bar as follows:
Caution ! Danger of injury!
Switch off the main switch! Before starting the
setting operation, wait until the motor stops!
- Remove the front guard.
- Loosen the screw (1) of the needle bar carrier
- Set the correct height of the needle bar and tighten anew
the screw (1).
Caution !
An incorrect setting of the needle bar height may
cause the striking of the hook point against the
needle.
