3 Set-up and commissioning
3.1 Unpacking of the machine
Strobel machines are supplied either complete as upper part only.
The cotton stand and another machine accessories are located in the
packaging.
Prior to disposing of the packing material it must be carefully checked whether
all accessories parts have been unpacked.
3.2 Setting up the machine (Fig. 1 and Fig. 2)
CAUTION! Danger of injury!
Due to pulling in of parts of clothing or hair as well as
danger of crushing of fingers!
The machine must not be operated without a guard for the
belt for the upper part and for the motor.
The upper part of the table plate must be provided with bores according to the
drawing.
Frame and pedals as well as electrical connections must be mounted according
to the printed circuit.
Screw on the motor. The electric connection must be carried out according to
the printed circuit in the enclosed operating instructions for the motor.
Screw the upper part to the table plate. (Fig. 2)
The bolts (1) and the pressure spring (2) are enclosed with the machine
accessories and must be fitted as shown in Fig. 2.
The pedal rod system must be suspended according to Fig. 1.
Push on the knee lever and secure with knurled screw.
(Not necessary with pneumatic venting)

12 BA_310D-R_3100D-R_A16-3_180117_en
The cotton stand is mounted at the back on the right on the table plate after
assembly of the individual parts. (Fig. 1)
Check all screws at the frame for tight fit and retighten if necessary.
Mount the position transmitter and adjust corresponding to point “3.4.2
Positions of the machine“.
ATTENTION!
Prior to commissioning the machine it must be checked
whether the electric connection data on the type plate of the
motor, especially the network voltage and the frequency,
are according to the data of your current network.
All rust prevention agents, such as Vaseline or similar, must be carefully
removed from the sewing tools prior to commissioning the machine.

3.3 Sense of rotation (Fig. 3)
The correct sense of rotation of the hand wheel is clockwise when looking at it
from the front.
Fig. 3
3.4 Motor drive via toothed belt
3.4.1 Tension of the toothed belt (Fig. 4)
CAUTION! Danger of injury!
To check the tension of the toothed belt, switch off the
machine electrically, pull the mains plug and ensure the
machine has actually stopped by pressing the motor pedal.
The machine must not be operated without a belt guard for
the motor.
The tension of the toothed belt should not be too great. Slight thumb pressure
should be able to push the belt through by approx. 5 mm.
A too little or too great toothed belt tension can deteriorate the positioning of the
machine and therefore impair the function sequence.
Tensioning the toothed belt (Fig. 4):
a) Release upper and lower retaining screw (1), (2) at the machine upper
part.
b) Pull out the motor slightly and tighten the lower retaining screw (2) slightly.
c) Tension the toothed belt by swivelling the motor.
d) Retighten the upper and lower retaining screw (1), (2).

Fig. 4
3.4.2 Positions of the machine
CAUTION! Danger of injury!
Danger of pulling in parts of clothing and of hair and danger
of crushing fingers and stitching fingers with needles!
When checking positions with switched-on machine keep
fingers and hands away from moving parts.
Machine with or without pneumatic:
The machine requires a needle position and depending on the sewing drive,
possibly also a reference position.
Reference position:
The reference position must be set in such a way, that the point of the
needle in direction of the insertion stitch closes with the right (inner) edge
of the needle slide plate.
Needle position (with stop in and outside the seam:
The needle position needs to be set in such a way that when the machine
is at standstill and the lifting is open the tip of the needle points in the
direction of the right stitch and the plunger, feed dog, and presser plate
are at one level (the position is located at about 8 mm after the upper
needle turning point).
Notes for sewing drives which have two needle positions:
The needle position mentioned above is position 2 at the sewing drive.
The position 1 at the sewing drive should be set in such a way that when
the machine is at standstill the tip of the needle stands about
3 mm in the direction of the left stitch after the lower needle turning point.

15 BA_310D-R_3100D-R_A16-3_180117_en
3.5 Intermediate venting (Fig. 5)
If an intermediate venting with the knee lever should become necessary with
attached pneumatic venting, it can be mounted on the screw (1) in its usual
position.

4 Notes on usage
4.1 Needles and threads
By selecting the most suitable needles and threads for the relevant sewing
material one can influence the sewing quality decisively.
Only tested GROZ-BECKERT needle system 1828 E should be used.
The machine is supplied with needles of thickness 80.
Note: An intact needle is of decisive importance for a good initial stitch.
Bent needle points, which can in part only be visible under a
magnifying glass, impair the sewing result.
Therefore, exchange your needles in good time!
We recommend endless twined polyester threads with a thickness of 120/2.
They are to be preferred to a spun thread, due to their high strength and good
sliding ability at low thread volume.
Guaranteed remark!
This machine has been set and sewn off with genuine
GROZ-BECKERT needles.
No guarantee can be granted if the settings are modified
for using different needle types.
4.2 Inserting the needle (Fig. 6)
CAUTION! Danger of Injury!
Switch off the machine before changing the needle and
ensure the machine is off by pressing the pedal for
switching the motor. Otherwise there is a danger of injury
through crushing and needle stitches.
Due to the bent shape of the needle the position in the needle lever is given.
Care must only be taken that the needle piston is pushed in the slot of the
needle lever up to the stop and that the needle clamping plate (6) is tightened
with the screw (5).
