1. Features
The extension kit is a dedicated part for the electronic sewing machine PLK-G1010 standard
specifications, and is used to extend the sewing area in the X axis direction by 110mm. This kit is
configured of the X axis table mechanism part, clamp mechanism part and parts for the sewing
machine including the slide plate and reinforcement support parts, etc.
The pneumatic pressure control device for changing the magnetic type work clamp, mounted as a
standard on the sewing machine, to the pneumatic type clamp is enclosed, so the force for clamping
the material to be stitched can be increased, and the clamping speed can also be adjusted.

4. Setup procedures
4.1 Installing the clamp mechanism and X axis table mechanism
(1) Remove the shaft (Fig.No.120) from the shaft holder (Fig.No.119) by loosening the set screw
for the shaft holder coupling the Y drive shaft and clamp.
(2) Uninstall the clamp mounted on the sewing machine as a standard by removing four screws on
the movable race Y side fixing the clamp bracket (Fig.No.112).
(3) Remove the movable covers X L/R (Fig.No.201, 203) on the X-Y table and also the X-cover
plates L/R (Fig.No.137, 138).
(4) Remove the standard stoppers X (Fig.No.207) then, install the Fig.No.207 stoppers X enclosed
with this attachment with the Fig.No.208 socket bolts.
(5) Insert the enclosed Fig.No.209 socket bolts to the screw hole fixing the standard stopper X
(Fig.No.207).Do not use the screws removed in step (4). (The length is different)
(6) Remove the standard detector plate X (Fig.No.202) then, install the Fig.No.202 detector plate X
enclosed with this attachment.
(7) Remove the left and right screws (Fig.No.204) coupling the cog belt X on the movable race X
then, remove the belt spacer X (Fig.No.205) and the belt clamper (Fig.No.206).
(8) Using the removed belt spacer X (Fig.No.205) and belt clamper (Fig.No.206), fix the cog belt X
and movable race X with the enclosed Fig.No.204 screws at the center of the movable race X.
Do not use the screws removed in step (7). (The length is different)
(9) Assemble this attachment’s clamp mechanism and the enclosed Fig.No.119 shaft holder using the
screws for the removed clamp mechanism.
(10) Attach the assembled clamp mechanism in step (9) in place of the removed clamp mechanism
by the reverse procedure of step (2). Insert the Fig.No.120 shaft into the shaft holder, couple
with linear bearing (ball bushing) for the Y drive shaft, and fix the shaft holder and shaft with
the set screw.
(11) Make sure that the clamp mechanism is not installed at an inclination. Move the clamp mechanism
back and forth, left and right and make sure that it moves smoothly.
(12) By the reverse procedure of step (3), install Fig.No.137, 138 X-cover plates L/R and Fig No.201,
203 movable covers X L/R.
(13) If there is no need to reinstall the magnetic clamp mounted as a standard on the sewing machine
after changing to this extension kit, it is recommended to remove the drive mechanism parts in the
sewing machine head.
To remove these parts, refer to the part catalog P-215 for the PLK-G1010 sewing machine unit,
and remove the parts including Fig.No.H130 pin E, and Fig.No.H136 clamp plate, etc. shown in
the catalog. Use the parts Fig.No.407 and 408 enclosed with this attachment as a cover.
Always make sure that the power is OFF before starting setting work.
CAUTION
Hold the clamp mechanism to prevent it from dropping down and damaging the
movable covers X when tilting the sewing machine.
CAUTION

4.2 Installing the slide plate
(1) Refer to the part catalog P-246 for the PLK-G1010 sewing unit, and remove Fig No.B125 slide plate
(outside), Fig.No.B118, B119, B120, and B129.
(2) Temporary fix the enclosed Fig.No.142, 145, slide plate brackets L/R and Fig.No.143 mounting
plate with the bolts Fig.No.144, 146, and etc., onto the sewing machine bed. Place the Fig.No.139
slide plate and fix with the Fig.No.141 screws. Then, adjust the slide plates (inside) and (outside)
so that they are on the same plane, and fully tighten the slide plate brackets and mounting plate.
(3) Align the enclosed Fig.No.140 film sheet with the needle hole position, and attach to the slide plate
with double-faced adhesive tape, etc.
4.3 Installing the pneumatic pressure control related parts
(1) The regulator and solenoid valve assembly configured of Fig.No.301, etc., are fixed to the bottom of
the sewing machine table with the enclosed Fig.No.405 wood screws (two screws).
(2) Align the piping symbols on the branched side (φ4) of the Fig.No.307 and 308 air tubes with ports
A to D on the Fig.No.109 air cylinder, and insert the tubes.
(3) Pass the air tubes through the notched section on the side of the sewing machine unit's motor cover,
and lead the tubes to the bottom of the table from the square hole on the table.
(4) Align the air tubes (φ6) led out above with the ports A and B of the solenoid valve installed in step
(1), and insert the tubes.
(5) Bind the air tubes appropriately with the enclosed Fig.No.401 Cable ties.
4.4Installing the pneumatic pressure control related parts
(1) Remove the cover for the connector panel on the back of the sewing machine.
(2) Disconnect the cable connected to CON13 (FU) on the solenoid PCB. This cable is not used after
this attachment is mounted. Fix it where it will not obstruct the other electric parts.
(3) Lead out the Fig.No.306 cable connected to the solenoid valve from the slot on the back of the
sewing machine table, pass through the cord bushing on the connector panel, and lead in to the
solenoid PCB side.
(4) Insert this Fig.No.306 cable connector to CON13 (FU) on the solenoid PCB from where the cable
was disconnected above.
(5) This complete the connection of the wiring. Check the connection with the following table, and then
securely install the cover removed from the connector panel.
4.5Adjusting the home position
Due to the stitching area extension of the X axis direction, the X axis home position need to be
changed.
(1) The optimum range for moving the home position is shown as the shaded section.
(2) Move the X side detector from the standard installation position to the right side looking from the
front of the sewing machine. The positions A, B and C in the figure are the positons where the
detector is installed.

(3) When installing the detector at the positon A, place it to the oposite direction to avoid stressing the
detector code.
(4) Refer to the PLK-G1010 Sewing Machine Head version instruction manual (7-21. Adjustment of the
X-Y mechanical home position), and adjust the home position.
[Note] The shaded section below is the optimum range for moving the home position.
・The clamp mechanism and wiper could interfere depending on the home position.
・The detector cable could collide with the detector plate X, so fix it to the bed with a nylon clip.
