3.1) MOTOR SPEED and PULLEY SIZE.
\ The recommended speed for these machines is 3500 rpm.
The machine speed is determined by the thickness of the fabric.

3.3 LUBRICATION.
1.) ADDING and DRAINING the OIL
Please use SF rated oil in all KANSAI SPECIAL machines.
Initial oU change is suggested after one month of operation.
There after the recommended oil change interval is every six months.
A) ADDING OIL
1.) Unscrew oil cap (A), see Fig.( 2.0 )
2.) Add oU until the oil level is between the red lines of the oil gauge,
see Fig. ( 2-;o ) »
3-) Replace oil cap (A)
B) DRAINING OIL
, 1.) Remove screw (E).oU will drain through the opening, see Fig.( 2.0 )
•. 2.) CoUect old oil in a suitable container and dispose of properly".
NOTICE: Before starting the machine CHECK the oil level.add oU if
necessary. Always use SF rated oil.

4.0 HOW TO OPERATE THE MACHINE.
4.1) CHANGING THE NEEDLES.
For the correct needle type and size see section 2.0 specification.
The needle size is determined by the thickness of the fabric. The
proper type anJ size must be used .
[ THE CORRECT POSITION OF THE NEEDLES ]
1.) The long grove of the needle must be directed towards the
operator, see Fig.(3.0)
2.) The scarf of the needle will be directed away from the operator.
3.) The needle must be all the way up in the holder.
*NOTICE: The incorrect setting of the needles can cause,mis-stitching,
thread breakageand looper breakage.

The stltc** length can be adjusted within the limits of 8 to 16
stitches per inch.
FIG.(4.0)
C ADJUSTMENT ]
1.) Remove screw (A), see Fig.( 4.0 )
2.) Loosen feed adjusting eccentric (E). see Fig. (4.0 )
3.) Move the eccentric.(Raise the eccentric for longer stitch length,

[ ADJUSTMENT ]
t
A.) The differential feed can be adjusted by rotating screw (A)
see Fig.(5.0 ). The differential will be made smaller by rotating
screw (A) In direction (D)[clockwise]. The differential! feed will
be made larger by rotating screw (A) In direction (E)[counter-clockwise]
B.) The front and rear feed dog must-lje set level with each other. ~
1.) Loosen screws (B) and (C). see Fig.(5.0 )

until the tip o£ the looper, moving behind the needle, just reaches
the right edge o£ the needle. Ihis establishes Msasurement A frcm
the top of the needle eye to the tip of the locper. Now turn the
hancMieel in the reverse direction (OCW) until the tip of the looper,
moving in front of the needle,readies the ric^t edge of* the needle.
Ohis establishes Msasuransnt B frcm the tc^of the needle eye to the
tip of the looper. *
When the needle - looper synchrcmzation is correct,measurements

5.5) LOQPER AVOID MOTION.
Bie.looper^at it's farthest left position ,move forward,to the
right and across the scarf on bade of the needles,then avoid
back sQid neve again to the left. As the lo^er is travelling to
the left, the needles are travelling on their downward stroke.
When the needles pass the looper,they should deflect 1 inhtly
off the looper's shoulder.

5.7) NEEDLE GUARD
As the-jieedle bar moves on it's ixpward stoke, the needle guard
moves forward to protect the needles. Hie clearance between the rwaoHiog
and the needle guard at its farthest forward position is to be set
at O.-O.l nia(i.e. the needle guard should just come up to the needles
without deflecting them) •
Hie needle guard hei^t is as follows: Viien the tip of the
looper is at the left edge of the needle,the tip of the needle is to be
1.0 ma belcw the top edge of the needle guard.
