Quick change system for SPRINT Series
1. Quick change system for SPRINT Series
The task of the quick change system is to reduce the machine setup time when
changing operation mode between border frame/cap/tubular. After converting the
machine to the quick change system, accesories which have not been converted
can be connected as customary to the quick change system.
The quick change system is designed solely for machines of the series SPRINT 6.
A conversion can only be carried out for SPRINT 6 and SPRINT 5 machines.
The installation is not possible in case of the following machine
types!
• SPRINT
• SPRINT 2-4
• SPRINT XL
• JAFA-/JNF-Serie
• L-/M-/S-/X-/Y-/Z-Serie

The end position of the nut should
be approximately 3-4 mm above the
screw head.
Slide one of the guide washers on the
screw. The guides of the washer should
be located on the far side of the head
of the clamping screw.
Carry out the assembly with the second
clamping screw as well.

are sitting thightly. Be careful, when removing the screws in
order not to deform or distroy the cross slot.
Disassemble the two clevises by removing the 4 countersunk screws.
The countersunk screws are inserted with the glue LOCTITE 290.
Due to the relatively high effort which is needed to remove the
screws, it may, at the disassembly come to deformity of the screw
