    row A.

    Assembling the hook driving shaft1. Fit all parts (!5 and !6) on the hook driving shaft. Insert the hook driving shaft in the direction of the

    arrow C until its top face becomes flush with the end face of the bushing. 2. Align No. 1 screws of 3, 4, 5, 7 and 9 with the flat face of the hook driving shaft and tighten

    them. Then, tighten No. 2 screws.3. Slide the gear box in the direction of the arrow B to obtain a backlash between the hook driving shaft

    gear and oscillator gear. Then, tighten gear box setscrews !3 (4 pcs.).4. Orienting the chamfered rear-end face of the hook driving shaft toward the machined hole in the side

    face of the bed, insert main/hook-driving shafts phase matching shaft !2 into the hook driving shaft.5. Loosen main-shaft sprocket setscrews !0 (4 pcs.). Turn main shaft !1 until the center of the en-

    graved point on the main shaft is aligned with the machined end face of the arm (the upper dead point of the needle bar is reached when the center of the engraved point on the main shaft is aligned with the machined end face of the arm). Then, tighten setscrews 8, !4 and !0.

    At this time, press hook driving shaft sprocket !8 against hook driving shaft intermediate bushing !7 to reduce the thrust play to zero.

    (Caution) 1. When the end face of the bushing and end face of the hook driving shaft are not flush, main/hook-driving shaft phase matching shaft !2 cannot be inserted into the hook driving shaft.

    2. When the gear box is not positioned horizontally with respect to the hook driving shaft gear, the gears will come in single-sided contact with each other, causing abrasion, break and torque.

    3. When the engraved line is not aligned with the machine end face of the arm, stitching failures can occur.

    4. When the aforementioned backlash is too large or too small, wear on or break-age of the gear, the main motor seizure or inconsistent stitching can be caused.

    1. Start the Test Mode I10 (IP-420).2. Tread on the start pedal for origin retrieval, and make adjust-

    ments by turning the sensor slit 4 so that the lines combining the center of the intermediate presser lifting shaft 1, the stan-dard hole of the intermediate presser lifting cam 2, and the center of the cam follower 3 become almost a straight line.

    3. Press of the panel three times. Loosen the first screw

    7 of the drive bevel gear 6 of the intermediate presser vari-able shaft 5.

    Take out the drive bevel gear 6 from the flat part of the inter-mediate presser variable shaft 5 and move it in the direction of the Arrow A.

    4. Using the [+] key or the [–] key, turn the intermediate presser variable shaft 5 until the second screw 9 of the intermediate presser variable arm 8 settles in the center of the arm’s left-side hole C. (Insert a hexagonal wrench to adjust positioning so that the arm comes in the center of backlash deflection.)

    5. Turn the intermediate presser lifting shaft 1 so that the sec-ond screw !0 of the intermediate presser lifting cam 2 comes just above. Press the drive bevel gear 6 of the intermediate presser variable shaft 5 in the direction of the Arrow B to fix it.

    6. After the completion of second origin retrieval, press of

    the panel twice to secure the [timing adjustment position]. In this case, confirm that the second screw 9 of the intermedi-ate presser variable arm 8 is positioned in the center of the arm’s left-side hole C or below it. (If the screw seems to have been positioned above the center, return to Step 4 and repeat the above-mentioned adjustments.)

    7. If the second screw 9 of the intermediate presser variable arm 8 is not positioned in the center (or lower), loosen the setscrew !1 of the sensor slit 4 and turn this sensor slit 4 in the direction of the Arrow D for fine adjustments.

    8. Make origin retrieval and confirm that the the cam follower 3 is located in the parallel section of the intermediate presser lifting cam 2. When the condition has been found normal, fasten the setscrew 7 of the drive bevel gear 6 and the set-screw !1 of the sensor slit 4 regularly.

    (Caution) For the prevention of the sensor !2 from destruc-tion, make origin retrieval after confirming that the slit of the sensor slit 4 is positioned in the center of the sensor !2.

    Adjustment Procedures Results of Improper Adjustment

    ○ There will be a displacement between the variable value of

    rewol resserp etaidemretni ehtposition and the panel setup value.

    ○ If there is no cam follower 3 in the parallel section of the intermediate presser lifting cam 2 at the time of origin retrieval, stepping out may oc-cur in the intermediate presser motor, thus causing defective stitches, generation of sound from the face plate section, and destruction of parts.

    ○ If adjustments of backlash are insufficient for the drive bevel gear 6, stepping out may oc-cur in the intermediate presser motor, thus causing defective stitches, generation of sound from the face plate section, and destruction of parts. .

    2. Loosen the intermediate presser stroke adjusting screw 1.3. Turn the pulley and move the needle bar to the lower dead

    point. When the intermediate presser 4 is lifted and the intermedi-

    ate presser stroke adjusting screw 1 is moved to the right orleft,confirmthattheintermediatepresseradjustingarm3 is positioned not to move vertically and that the intermedi-ate presser positioning link 5 keeps a close contact with the arm. In this state, tighten the setscrew 2 of the intermediate presser drive arm.

    (The clearance is approximately 3.6mm between the inter-mediate presser needle bar connection and the intermediate presser bar metal 6.)

    4. After the setscrew 2hasbeentightened,confirmthatthereis no backlash in the intermediate presser adjusting arm 3 in the forward and backward directions.

    5. Finally, make adjustments of the intermediate presser stroke. (Refer to Instruction Manual #. MAINTENANCE OF SAWING

    MACHINE, 1-5. Adjusting the vertical stroke of the intermedi-ate presser.)

    Adjustment Procedures Results of Improper Adjustment

    ○ If there is no clearance, there will be interference between the intermediate presser bar metal 6 and the intermediate presser needle bar connec-tion during sewing machine operation, and this will gener-ate abnormal sound as a result.

    ○ If there is too much clear-ance, there will be interfer-ence between the intermedi-ate presser adjusting arm and the arm 3 during sewing machine operation, thus gen-erating abnormal sound as a result.

    ○ If there is too much or too less clearance, the lower dead-point height of the intermediate presser 4 may be changed as a result of intermediate presser stroke adjustments.

    4. In the state as described in 3, tighten two setscrews 1 in the flatsurfaceoftheoscillatorgearfirst,andonesetscrew2, providing a clearance of 2.4 mm between the inside machined surface of gear box 6 and oscillator gear 3.

    5. Adjust the backlash according to [(6) Removal/installation of the hook driving shaft and backlash removing procedure].

    6. After adjustment of the backlash, let the hook driving shaft rotate to verify that no torque variation is observed.

    Adjustment Procedures Results of Improper Adjustment

    ○ When the clearance of 2.4 mm is not provided, gear abrasion or breakage can be caused.

    1. Loosen the setscrew 1 and remove it.2. When the adjusting screw 2 is tightened, the quantity of oil

    can be regulated for the lubrication pipe left 4.3. After adjustments, tighten the setscrew 1tofixit.(Cautions) 1. In the state of standard shipment, hook lu-

    brication reducer 3 is positioned so that it is lightly tightened and adjusting screw 2 is return-loosened by 1.5 turns.

    2. When reducing the oil amount, the hook lu-brication reducer should not be fully tight-ened up at a time. Tighten hook lubrication reducer 3 slightly at a time at about a half-day intervals checking how the oil amount is reduced. Excessive reduction of oil can be a cause of hook wear.

    1. Apply a proper amount of grease (Juki Grease A) to the grooved cam block of the cam 1, the pe-ripheral cam block, and the rollers of the presser lifter link and the thread trimmer link 8. Refer to “10.-(4) Parts to which grease • Locktight is applied o TENSION RELEASE & THREAD TRIMMER MECHANISM COMPONENTS.”

    2. While the cam 1 is being inserted in the shaft of the presser lifting motor 6, mount the assembly on the sewing machine frame and tighten the four setscrews 5. The insertion of the cam should be done gently in order not to hurt the bearing 7.

    3. Adjust the position of the cam 1 so that Clearance A of 0.5 to 0.7mm is secured between the cam 1 and the thread trimmer link 8. Since then, fix the cam 1 with 2 setscrews 2. (Adjust the screw to the flat parts on both ends of the shaft.)

    4. Mount the sensor slit 3 with the 2 setscrews 4 so that the end plane of the motor shaft can ap-proximately coincide with that of the sensor slit 3. (Join the flat section for installation.)

    * Confirm that the slit plate of the sensor slit 3 does not interfere with the presser bar lifter sensor.5. Refer to “3.-(19) Thread trimmer and presser origin sensor adjustment” and make sensor adjust-

    ments.

    1. Start the test mode I07 (IP-420).2. Tread on the pedal for the retrieval of the thread trimmer and

    presser bar lifter (cam) origin.3. Make sure that the standard holes ( A and B ) of the thread

    trimming motor stand are aligned with the standard hole C of the thread trimmer and presser lifter cam 1 using a bar 4.

    4. If the standard hole C of the thread trimmer and presser lifter cam 1 is too high ( E direction), loosen the setscrew 2 and move the sensor mounting plate 3 upward ( E direction) and secure it.

    If the standard hole C of the thread trimmer and presser lifter cam 1 is too low ( D direction), loosen the setscrew 2 and move the sensor mounting plate 3 downward ( D direction) and secure it.

    After securing the sensor mounting plate , conduct origin retrieval by pressing the pedal to make sure that the standard holes are aligned.

    5. Repeat the above steps 2 to 4 until the coincidence is confirmed.(Caution) Tighten the setscrew 2 after confirming that there

    is no interference between the sensor slit plate 5 and the sensor.

    Adjustment Procedures Results of Improper Adjustment

    ○ If the standard holes are not aligned, the thread trimming timing error occurs and de-fective thread trimming and unthreading at the beginning of sewing may be caused.

    Adjustment Procedures Results of Improper Adjustment

    ○ If the clearance is less than 1.0mm, thread may be cut by the counter knife 5 blade when the thread is pulled with the moving knife 3. In this case, upper and lower threads are cut into short pieces.

    ○ If the clearance is more than 1.0mm, the residual thread length after thread cutting operation becomes longer beneath the work.

    1. Turn off the power supply and look for any close contact be-tween the AT solenoid 1 and the thrust collar 2.

    2. Loosen the three setscrews 3 and remove the thread tension cap 4.

    3. Hold the tension releasing pin adjust collar 5 not to let it ro-tate, and loosen the nut 6.

    4. Turn the tension releasing pin adjust collar 5 and adjust the gap between the thread tension disk 7. (Adjustment of thread tensiondiscfloating)

    5. Hold the tension releasing pin adjust collar 5 and tighten the nut 6.

    Mount the thread tension cap 4 by means of the setscrew 3.6. Turn on the power supply and set up the thread tension. Con-

    firmthatthethreadtensiondisk7 are closed.(Caution) When the tension releasing pin adjusting collar 5

    is rotated, the thread section should not be en-gaged with the incomplete thread section of the thread tension releasing pin 8. (The thrusting distance of the thread tension releasing pin should be 4 mm or less from the tension releasing pin 8 adjusting collar 5.)

    * If the amount of disc floating cannot be adjusted properly under the condition that the thrusting distance is 4 mm or less, loosen the setscrew 3 and adjust the AT link unit (front) in the right-left direction.

    Refer to “3.- (23) AT unit connection/disconnec-tion”.

    Adjustment Procedures Results of Improper Adjustment

    ○ Iftheamountofdiscfloat-ing is too less, the residual thread length can be changed or shortened when the thread is thick.

    ○ Iftheamountofdiscfloat-ing is too much, the thread tension discs 7 cannot close completely and normal thread tension may fail to be chosen. This can be a cause of imperfect sewing.

    ○ If the thread section of the tension releasing pin adjust-ing collar 5 is engaged with the incomplete thread section of the thread tension releas-ing pin 8, the thread tension releasing pin 8 may be dam-aged.

    Results of Improper Adjustment

    1. Start the test mode I06 (IP-420).2. When the star pedal is depressed, the feed moves to the me-

    chanical origin and stops.3. Lower the needle and check the right and left displacement

    based on the engraved marking of the origin.4. When the engraved marking of the origin is found to be dis-

    placed in Direction A from the needle tip, loosen the 2 set-screws 2 and adjust the sensor mounting plate 1 in Direction C. After adjustments, tighten the 2 setscrews 2.

    5. When the engraved marking of the origin is found to be dis-placed in Direction B from the needle tip, loosen the 2 set-screws 2 and adjust the sensor mounting plate 1 in Direction D. After adjustments, tighten the 2 setscrews 2.

    (Caution) 1. After the adjustment, check to be sure that the slit plate does not interfere with sensor 3.

    2. After the adjustment of the origin, move the feed in the X ± direction to verify that the origin does not depart from the engraved line.
