Threading
Ref. No 31-8930-0201-03/0103
Before threading the feeder it is necessary to remove any yarn that may be on the spool body. To do this
the magnet pin must be opened. This can be performed using any of the following methods:
1.
A short push on the yarn release button will release one winding.
2. By pushing the yarn release button and keeping it pushed in the magnet pin will remain open as
long as the button is pushed in.
3. Push the yarn release button and – while still pushing – switch the motor off. The magnet pin will
now remain in the open position until the motor switch is turned on.
After the magnet pin has been opened any yarn on the spool body can be removed.
If the magnet pin has been opened as per method three above it must be closed again before the feeder
can be threaded up. To do this, switch on the motor switch.
To thread the unit proceed as follows:
1.
Switch off the motor switch.
2.
Hold the end of the yarn close to the input eyelet at the rear of the feeder.
3.
Push the PTU activating button and release the yarn.
4.
Take hold of the yarn end.
5.
Switch on the feeder.
