HOW
TO
OPERATE
THE
MACHINE
1.
Cautions
on
operation
O Do not, under any circumstances, start the machine before filling up the oil reservoir.
e The rotational direction of the
machine
is
clockwise
as
viewed
from the
pulley
side. Do not run the
machine
in the
reverse
direction
because if you do, the lubrication pump will not function and will invite scorching
of
the machine.
2.
Lubrication
and
drainage
O Use JUKI Defrix Oil No. 2 for lubrication.
Remove
the
oil cover,
attach
the funnel in
the
accessories
box
and
pour
in
JUKI
Defrix
Oil No. 2
until
the
top
of
the
oil
float
indicator
reaches
the
top
line
of
the
oil sight window.
After
filling
up,
cover up
the
oil cover.
0 Inspect the oil sight window every day before operating the
machine.
If
the oil level falls below the lower line, fill it up
to
the
upper
line.
0 To drain
out
the
oil, remove
the
oil drainage screw.
(Caution)
O When the machine is to be operated for the first time or when
it
was idle
for
a
long
period
of
time,
be sure to oil
the
top
of the needle clamp guide bar @ and the top part of the
upper looper guide 0 before starting the sewing operation.
0 As the lower knife slide shaft © moves slightly during the
running
of
the machine, apply a small
amount
of
oil to the
oiling hole 0 at the upper part of the lower knife installing
body.
0 If any oil
other
than designated oil is used, it might invite
scorching or oil leakage. Be sure to use only the designated

The
thread
tension
The thread tension varies according to the kinds of sewing material, thickness and kinds of sewing thread, overedging width, stitch
length
and
etc. and therefore the pressure
of
the thread tension disc
must
be adjusted in each individual case.

Indicating
(1)As you keep
pushing
the push button
(T)
with your
finger,
rotate
the
pulley
toward
the desired direction.
You
will
hear
a
"click"
sound and the push
button
will
enter
deep inside.
(2) As you keep pressing the
button,
match the stitch length which
is carved in the pulley with the indicating point of the frame.
(3) The figures carved in the pulley indicate the stitch length.
If the figure
"3"
of the pulley is matched with the indicating
point of the frame, the stitch length becomes approximately
3
mm.
8.
Adjusting
the
differential
feed
Tlie differential feed
ratio
is
adjusted
by changing
the
moving range
of the-sub feed. If the differential feed lever ® is pushed up, gather
stitching
can be
performed
and
if
it's
moved
downwards,
stretch
stitching
can be
performed.
(1)Push
the
sub
feed
stopper
lever (2)
toward
the frame direction,
and
rotate
it
towards
the
reverse
direction
of
the
arrow
until
it
stops.
(2) Loosen the differential feed lock
nut
(3) and by moving the
differential feed lever ® either up or down, adjust to the desired
differential feed
amount.
After
adjustment,
tighten
the differential
feed
lock
nut
(3).
(3)
Next,
push
the
sub
feed
stopper
lever (2)
toward
the
frame
direction
and
rotate
it

Adjust
so
that
the

point
and
backside
of
the
needle becomes
0.05—0.1
mm.
B: When
the
double
chain
looper
has
reached
the
extreme
left
position,
the
distance
between
the blade
point
and
the
center
of
the needle
becomes
2.5mm(3/32")
by adjusting
the
double
chain looper support arm ® . Then, tighten
the
set
