1. General safety instructions
The non-observance of the following safety instructions can cause bodily injuries or damages to the machine.
1. The machine must only be commissioned of the instruction book and operated by persons with appropriate training.
2. Before putting into service also read the safety rules and instructions of the motor supplier.
3. The machine must be used only for the purpose intended. Use of the machine without the safety devices is not permitted.
Observe all the relevant safety regulations.
4. When gauge parts are exchanged (e.g. needle, top roller, needle plate, feed dog and bobbin) when treading, when the
workplace is left, and during service work, the machine must be disconnected from the mains by switching off the master
switch or disconnecting the mains plug.
5. Daily servicing work must be carried out only by appropriately trained persons.
6. Repairs, conversion and special maintenance work must only be carried out by technicians or persons with appropriate
training.
7. For service or repair work on pneumatic systems the machine must be disconnected from the compressed air supply system.
Exceptions to this are only adjustments and functions checks made by appropriately trained technicians.
8. Work on the electrical equipment must be carried out only by electricians or appropriately trained persons.
9. Work on parts and systems under electric current is not permitted, except as specified in regulations DIN VDE 0105.
10. Conversion or changes to the machine must be authorized by us and made only in adherence to all safety regulations.
11. For repairs, only replacement parts approved by us must be used.
12. Commissioning of the sewing head is prohibited until such time as the entire sewing unit is found to comply with EC
directives.
It is absolutely necessary to respect the safety instructions marked by these signs.
Danger of bodily injuries !
Please note also the general safety instructions.
IMPORTANT WARNING
In spite of all safety measures made on the machines, inappropriate actions of the operator may lead to dangerous situations. In
industrial sewing machines, attention should be paid to the following still remaining possible sources of injury:
1. Moving sewing needle
- risk of injury when sewing with raised pressure foot or top roller, because the finger guard is then positioned too high.
2. Moving thread take-up lever
- risk of injury when inadvertently or intentionally inserting the finger(s) between the thread take-up lever and its guard.
3. Moving pressure member
- risk of injury when holding sewn work in immediate vicinity of the pressure member and beginning to insert under the
pressure member a considerably thicker sewn work portion,
- risk of injury when sinking the pressure member.
4. When switched off, the clutch motor slows down by inertia but would be reactivated by an accidental treading down of the
motor treadle. To avoid such risk, it is advised to hold the handwheel by hand and slightly to depress the motor treadle.
2. Introduction
This service book contains instruction for regulating the mechanisms of the sewing machine head.
The instructions for use and for putting the machine into operation and for the control of the stopmotor are not included in this
service book, but they are supplied as separate publications.
This service book is universal for all subclasses of the machine - it contains setting procedures for all elements which may be
placed on the machine of the given class. When the supplied subclass of this machine does not include some element, then it is
possible to leave out the respective parts of the instructions. The optional equipments of the machine and the respective
configurations of the subclasses of the machine are given in the operating instructions.
This sewing machine disposes of a large extent of its use. The machine should be set with respect to the parameters of the sewn
material, the sewing thread etc. The setting for the individual categories is given in the chapter 11.2.
For setting the machine, simple setting aids are used which are included in the accessory of the machine. Besides these aids,
universal measuring devices are used, such as slide calliper, feeler gauges and dynamometer for measuring the thread tension.

3.2.5 Side setting of the needle bar holder
In the correct position of the needle bar holder, the distance
A between the needle axis on the left side and the axis of the
aperture in the feed-dog is 0,1 mm. The needle bar holder can
be set as follows:
Caution! Danger of injury!
Switch off the main switch! Before starting the
setting operation, wait until the motor stops!
- Loosen the screw (1) of the pin (2).
- Loosen the screw (3) of the guide pin (4).
- In shifting the pin (2) set the needle bar holder on the
measure A = 0.1 mm /at the same time the guide pin (4)
shifts/.
- The guide pin (4) is to be set in such a way that the needle
bar holder moves easily.
- Tighten the screws (1 and 3).
3.2.6 Setting the needle (the needle bar holder)
in the sewing direction (fine setting)
The feed motion of the needle is timed with the feed-dog
motion. The needle must pass through the centre of the needle
hole on the feed-dog.
Caution ! Danger of injury!
Switch off the main switch! Before starting the
setting operation, wait until the motor stops!
-Set the maximum permitted stitch length.
- Loosen the screw (1) of the eccentric (2) of the needle bar
holder (3).
- By turning the eccentric (2), set the needle to the centre of
the needle hole in the feed-dog(4).
- Retighten the screw (1) and check the adjustment.
Caution!
A faulty setting may cause bending or breaking of
needles against the throat plate insert.

3.3 Throat plate,
3.3.1 Description
The throat plate (1) is universal for all categories of sewing.
Four feed-dog types, differing from each other by the width of
the needle hole as required by the respective sewing category,
are available (see tab. in the par. 11.2).
3.3.2 Mounting and removing the throat plate
When mounting the throat plate (1), the finger (4) of the bobbin
case must fit into the recess (5) of the throat plate.
Caution! Danger of injury!
Switch off the main switch! Before starting the
setting operation, wait until the motor stops!
- Turn the finger (4) in the sense towards the throat plate (1).
-Place the throat plate (1) into the bed plate.
- Screw in the screws (7).
- When removing the insert, proceed in an inverse sequence.
3.4 Thread tensioners and limiter
3.4.1 Description
The main tensioner (1) serves for creating the tension of the
threads when tightening the stitch. The auxiliary tensioner (2)
reduces the risk of pulling out of the thread after the thread
trimming when removing the sewn material, when the thread
is passed through this material and when the main tensioner
is relieved. The main tensioner is relieved by the mechanism
controlled by the shaft of the presser foot lifting (3), on which
the lever (4), is mounted which shifts the prop (5), which
pushes the metal sheet lever (6). This lever shifts the pin (7)
and this pin pushes onto the washer (8) and relieves the spring
(9). With the machines provided with a thread trimming device,
the main tensioner (1) is relieved as well when switching on
the electromagnet (10), when its armature (11) pushes against
the lever (6). The mechanism of the adapting spring (12)
maintains the thread in its tensioned state when passing
through the hook. The thread limiter (13) limits the length of
the thread fed by the take-up lever when moving from the
upper to the bottom dead centre to get a controlled passing
of the thread through the hook.
3.4.2 Setting the tension of the main and auxiliary
tensioners
The tension of the main thread tensioner is regulated by means
of the nut (1). The force of tensioning the thread is measured
by the dynamometer (2) as it is shown on the illustration. The
size of this force differs according to the category of sewing
and is indicated in the par. 11.2.
The tension of the auxiliary tensioner is regulated using the
nut (3). It should be the least possible, but sufficient for
unthreading the thread from the sewn material when removing
the sewn material from the pressing element without leaving
the tensioner.
