CAUTION !
When changing the sewing length L1 it is essential that the corner
knife interval also be altered at the same time.
Setting the Corner Knife Interval
That sewing length which is most often sewn should be stored under
L1.
The interval between the corner knives must be set so that it is the
same as the sewing length stored under L1.
With all other sewing lengths the corner incision occurs seperately in
two strokes. After the incision of the first corner knife the material is
transported to the second corner knife.
Exception:
With Class
745-23
the corner knives must always be switched on or off
together.
Positioning the Material
With short seams under 75 mm place the material at the forward
positioning point.
If, by sewing lengths under 75 mm, the rear positioning point is
chosen, then the error message "
ERROR
" will appear in the
display. You must then change to the forward positioning point.
With placing at the rear positioning point the following condition
must be satisfied:
L1 - L2(L3) < 50
Otherwise the error message "
ERROR
" will appear in the
display. You must then change to the forward positioning point.
