Adjustment of upper ornament spreaders
* First, Install the upper ornament spreader so
that
the
bottom surface of the base on which the spreader
is installed is 15mm (distance (G)) from the upper
surface of
the
needle plate. When
the
above distance
(15mm)
is set at both right and left
sides,
tighten
the two hex head
screws
(D), and then tighten the
other two screws (E) after checking the distance.
Next, install
the
lowest spreader (C) of the three so
that it
moves
smoothly without contactingthe
presser
foot when the spreader is slide from right to left
while it is lifted by approx. 0.2mm. The clearance
between the spreader and needles should be 1.0 -
1.2mm. When the spreader is not parallel to the
twelve
needles,
loosen
screws
(D)slightly and correct
the spreader so that it is
parallel
to the
needles,
and
then retighten the
screws
(D). Next,
install
spreader
(B)
in
the
same
way
as
spreader
(C)
while
eliminating
the clearance between spreaders (8) and (C). Care
should
be
used
to
prevent
the
spreaders
from
coming
too
close to one another, since this causes unsmooth
movement. They must move smoothly. Next, install
spreader (A) in the same way as spreaders
(C)
and
(B).
After
installing
the three
spreaders,
try to
move
them up-to-down. Adjust four
screws
on spreader
(B)
so that the clearances between the spreaders in the
vertical direction is
approx.
0.5mm.
