in the solenoid box, adjust the location of link bowl by

loosening the fixation screw to make the center of

solenoid shaft and the underneath of table horizontally,

then fix the screw tightly after adjusting.

3) The solenoid sound, the load, the lifting amount of

presser foot can change depending on the adhesion state

of the knee lifting solenoid. Please assemble for smooth

operation.

Note) Do not use a thread open sensor when using auto knee

lifter.

4-6. Supplying oil

Operate the machine only after supplying oil when the machine is used for the first time or has been left unused for a long time.

Only use genuine lubricant of this company. (Lubricant is in the accessory box.)

Notice

Plug in only after oil supply is finished. If the operator mistakenly steps on the pedal with the plug in,

the machine will start automatically and can cause severe injuries.

When handling lubricants, wear protective glasses or gloves to prevent lubricants from contacting with

your eyes or skin. Wash your hands in running water with soap when they are smeared with

lubricant. If lubricant is in the eye, instantly wash it with running water and see a doctor.

Never drink lubricants since they can cause vomiting or diarrhoea. Go to see a doctor, if you

mistakenly drink lubricant.

Keep the oil out of the reach of children. Keep the oil away from heat.

1. Supply oil at the oil hole of each friction part and red-marked hole before operating the sewing machine as shown in figure 17.

[ Figure 17 ]

4-7. Trial run (Pedal operation)

1. Press pedal lightly to the position of B to check if the

machine is operating low-speed sewing.

2. Press pedal to the position of C to check if the machine is

operating high-speed sewing.

3. Press pedal backward and forward. And then put the pedal at

neutral position of A to check if needle stops lower than the

upper surface of needle plate.(in case that needle down stop

is set)

4. When pressing pedal to the position of D(or pressing pedal

the position of to D and then replacing pedal to the position

of A), needle will stop higher than the upper surface of

needle plate after trimming.

4-8. Function of up/down stop button of needle bar (Auto

thread trimming type)

1) You can move the needle bar up and down by pressing a

Up/Down Stop Button of Needle Bar when the

machine stops. If you press the button, the needle at the

bottom would move up. If you press the button two times

consecutively, the needle bar at the above would move

down.

2) Check the stop position of sewing machine

Check the stop position of the machine after operating a

needle up/down by pressing the button. There can be

something wrong with the thread trimming function

when the stop position is incorrect. Then adjust the

position of upper stop sensor bracket assembled inside

the motor cover.

3) Remove the pulley and the motor cover, loosen the

fixation screw of upper stop sensor bracket. Adjust the

upper stop sensor bracket to the arrow direction then

take the stop position of needle bar.

Notice

Make sure not to touch or press down parts that are operating or moving during operation. Failure to follow

the safety rules may result in physical injuries or mechanical damages.

4-9. Reverse Button Function Check

The machine changes immediately to backward stitching

when pressing a reverse button during forward stitching. If

you press a pedal and operate the sewing machine under the

state of holding the machine and pressing the reverse button

 in advance, stitches are made backward from the

beginning.

If you press the reverse button when the sewing machine is at

a standstill, you can change the up/down position of needle

bar. The needle bar locates at the upper stop when touching

one time lightly. If you touch the reverse button two times

consecutively within a second, the needle bar moves to the

lower stop position.

Therefore, it shares the reverse stitching function and the

up/down position of needle change function.

4-10. Functional Description of Function Switch

1) : Speed conversion switch

The speed decreases to the predetermined speed if you

press the switch while stitching and the speed changes as

original if you press the switch one more time.

2) : Sub Thread Tension Control Switch

The initial state of this switch releases the thread tension.

When pressing the switch, the disk is closed and the

thread tension increases.

4-11. Adjusting Parameter of Sub Thread Adjusting Device

- The default value of A-95 is “0”.

Parameter No. Set Value

Function Name

A-95 0

Use the main thread adjusting device. In order to run the sub thread adjusting device while

using the main device, press the sub thread tension switch. Then with the lamp turned on, the dish

for the sub thread adjusting device is closed.

After trimming, the sub thread tension switch is automatically turned off.

In the case where A-95’s parameter is set at “1”, the lamp of the sub thread tension switch is on,

and the sub thread adjusting device  is running like the main thread adjusting device.

In this case, even after trimming, the sub thread tension switch is not automatically turned off.

In order to release the tension of the sub thread adjusting device, press the sub thread tension

switch to turn it off.

4-12. How to Use Dual Tension

1. Main Thread Adjusting Device

- Adjust tension of the main thread adjusting device in line with the main sewing material conditions.

- Adjust the main thread adjusting device and the tension of the lower thread in order to create loops at the center of the

sewing material at even stitch length.

2. Sub Thread Adjusting Device

- Sub thread tension control assembly is a device that users increase easily the upper thread tension depending on the materials

or the change of stepped pulley while stitching.

- The sub thread adjusting device should be adjusted in line with the tension of the main thread adjusting device and the

conditions of sewing materials with height difference.

3. Operating MainSub Thread Adjusting Devices

- The mainsub thread adjusting devices,  are run by pneumatic pressure. In particular, the sub thread adjusting device

can be turned on and off easily with functional switches.

- If you press sub thread tension control button while stitching the lamp is turned on and the upper thread tension increases at the

same time. If you press the button again, the lamp is turned off and the upper thread tension decreases at the same time.
