CUT BEFORE EDGING MACHINE<br />
UPPER THREAD DRAW-OFF<br />
AND TENSION DETAILS<br />
Keep Tension tight enough to break the<br />
upper thread at the last stitch, and to prevent<br />
thread from being drawn from the source of<br />
supply through the needle as the gartment is<br />
removed from the machine. Make sure that<br />
Lever releases Tension when machine<br />
starts sewing, so that only Tension will be<br />
effective during the sewing cycle.<br />
The required length of Starting Thread at <br />
is provided by the movement of Upper<br />
Thread draw- off Tension . This Tension<br />
should swing in the direction indicated by<br />
arrow X immediately after the machine<br />
starts, and in the direction of arrow Y when<br />
the machine is at the far end of its travel.<br />
ADJUSTMENT OF UPPER<br />
THREAD DRAW-OFF<br />
To obtain maximum length of Starting<br />
Thread at proceed as follows:<br />
Make sure machine is in its normal<br />
stopping position. Loosen screws and <br />
rotate Cam to the point where Pin is at<br />
the very top of the Cam rise at as shown<br />
Fig. 1. Then tighten screws and <br />
securely.<br />
To decrease the length of Starting Thread at<br />
adjust the position of Cam as required<br />
in the direction of arrow marked Less Fig. 1.<br />

OPERATION OF UNDER THREAD<br />
GRABBER<br />
Thread Grabber , Fig. 2, should be positioned to<br />
catch and lightly hold the Under Thread against the<br />
back beveled edge of the Throat Plate as the machine<br />
stops.<br />
A slight tug on the garment as it is removed from the<br />
machine will cause the thread to break at the knot of<br />
the last stitch. A sufficient end of the thread will<br />
remain held by the Grabber above the Throat Plate as<br />
shown in Detail A to start the next sewing cycle.<br />
Important: In order for the thread Grabber to<br />
swing through its full arc end hold the thread as shown<br />
Detail A, the machine must be adjusted to stop in its<br />
extreme forward position. For instructions to obtain<br />
this adjustment refer to Sheet 19, Fig. 1.<br />
With the machine in Stop Position as described above,<br />
make sure that Lever is engaged in the notch of<br />
Latch with no more than paper thickness clearance<br />
existing at point . To obtain this clearence loosen<br />
screw and turn Eccentric as required. Then<br />
tighten Screw securely.<br />
