INSTALLING
Each
machine
before
it
leaves
the
factory
is
sewed off,
inspected,
and
carefully
packed. When
the machine
reaches
the
customer
it
is
ready
for
service.
Because
o~
all
the
precaution
taken by
those
who handle the machine, the
customer
needs
only to
place
it
in
its
proper
position
in
the table
and make only the
ordinary
settings
to
adapt
the machine to the
material
he
wishes
to
sew.
ASSEMBLY PARTS
A
bag
of
assembly
parts,
consisting
of one spool pin, one
extra
bobbin, two hinge
studs,
and
two
screws
for
holding
miscellaneous
attachments
to
the
bed
plate
is
packed with
each
machine.
After
unpacking the machine
assemble
the spool pin (K, Fig. 3).
Push
the hinge
studs
into
position
in the
holes
provided
at
the
rear
of the machine. The
studs
are
slotted
so
that
a
tight
fit
can be
easily
made.
STANDARD ACCESSORIES
Also included with
each
machine
is
a box of
standard
accessories
containing one bobbin
winder
assembly,
one
drip
pan, one
oil
drain
jar
and
clamp
spring,
one knee
lifter
assembly
and
rubber
pad,
one machine
rest
pin, two hinge
plates
and
screws,
four
felt
pads
and
necessary
nails.
These
parts
are
indispensable
when
setting
up the machine.
TABLE TOPS
Lockstitch
machines
are
installed
in
table
tops
prepared
with
cut
out,
so
that
the bed plate
is
flush with the top of the table.
Standard
table
tops
are
available
for
isolated
mounting on
all
types
of
installations
and
drives.
Isolated
mounting
parts
are
not included with table
tops
and
must
be
ordered
separately.
The
installation
of
isolated
mounting
parts
is
shown
in
(Fig. 1).
For
table
tops not
prepared
for
isolated
mounting,
felt
pads
are
furnished
with the
accessories
for
isolating. The
nails
for
these
pads
should be
driven
horizontally
as
indicated
on the
right
end of
cut-out
(Fig. 1).
When
assembling
the hinge
plates
to the
table
tops,
be
sure
to locate
them
as
accurately
as
possible,
so
that
the hinge
studs,
attached
to the machine,
can
swing
properly
in
the
plate.
Special
care
should be taken
that
machine
does
not
contact
the
sides
of the
cut-out
at
any point.
KNEE PRESS
The knee
press
is
attached
to Union
Special table
tops
at
the location
designated
by
punch
marks
on the
underside.
For
other
boards
locate
the knee
press
so
that
the
center
of the
shaft
is
8-1/4
inches
from
the
right
side
of the cut-off. The knee
press
assembly
should
appear
as
in
(Fig. 2).
DRIP PAN
The
drip
pan
is
attached
to Union
Special
table
tops
at
the indentation
marks
on the
inside
of the
cut-out,
using
the
nails
furnished
with the
accessories
(Fig. 1).
For
other
table
tops, the
drip
pan should be
set
high enough to
clear
the knee
press
and
low enough to
clear
the botton of the
machine.
It
should be
laterally
located
so
that
it
is
directly
under
the
base
of the
machine.
