Adjustment Procedures
Results of Improper Adjustment
①
Remove the timing belt.
②
Loosen two setscrews
1
in the main shaft sprocket and move
the main shaft sprocket in the direction of the arrow mark to adjust
the position.
③
After the adjustment, tighten the setscrews.
Caution : If the setscrews are excessively loosened, they come
away from the flat positions.
①
Loosen two setscrews
1
, and turning the hook driving shaft,
loosen the setscrews of thrust collars (large) and (small).
②
Temporarily tighten setscrews
1
in the state that the oiling hole
is located in the position of the figure and the hook driving shaft
is pressed in the direction of the arrow mark.
Caution : Adjust so that the end face of the hook driving shaft
is aligned with the frame at plane B.
③
Press the thrust collar (small) to plane A and tighten the setscrew.
Then loosen setscrews
1
, turn the hook driving shaft by 90˚with
a screwdriver from the direction of arrow mark C to the direction
of arrow mark D, and tighten the other setscrew.
④
Turn again the hook driving shaft by 90˚ in the reverse direction,
press the hook driving shaft to the thrust collar (small), lightly
press the thrust collar (large) to the hook driving shaft sprocket,
and tighten the setscrew of the thrust collar (large).
⑤
Turn the hook driving shaft by 90˚ with a screwdriver from the
direction of arrow mark C to the direction of arrow mark D and
tighten the other setscrew.
⑥
Adjust the backlash and tighten two setscrews
1
.
(See the backlash of the hook shaft gear in the next item.)

If the position of the main shaft
sprocket is improper, the timing
belt will be deteriorated or
broken.
™
If the position of the hook driving
shaft sprocket is improper, the
timing belt will be deteriorated
or broken.
™
If the backlash is excessive, the
hook noise will be increased.
™
If the backlash is too small, gear
noise or seizure of the hook
shaft or the hook driving shaft
gear will be caused.
™
When adjusting the backlash, if
the longitudinal position of the
hook driving shaft sprocket is not
correct, the timing belt will be
deteriorated or broken.
①
Loosen setscrew
1
.
②
Pressing the hook driving shaft with a screwdriver from the
direction of arrow mark C, turn it to adjust the backlash.
Turning in the direction of arrow mark D decreases the backlash,
and turning in the reverse direction increases the backlash.
Adjust the backlash so that it is 0.1 to 0.5 mm at the blade point
of the hook and the hook rotates smoothly.
③
After the adjustment, tighten setscrew
1
.
Caution : The end face of the hook driving shaft should be
aligned with the machine frame at plane B.
The oiling hole should be nearly in the position as
shown in the figure.
