Operating Instructions 581 - 00.0 - 02/2015 13
• Piece counter with display on the control panel for the number
of sewn buttonholes (daily and overall production).
• Pneumatic buttonhole slitting.
• Suction for the cutting waste.
• Central oil wick lubrication from 2 oil reservoirs.
• Mechanical conversion from narrow to wide zigzag stitch.
• Electronic changing of the zigzag stitch width (+/-0.5 mm) in
the buttonhole seam and the eye.
• Electronic setting of the intermediate material width.
• Modern, ergonomically cost effective design within the current
DA design line.
• Large-surface fabric support plate with large recess depth for
the distance between the buttonhole and the fabric edge.
• Machine head swiveling supported by a gas pressure spring.
• Needle thread monitor interrupts the sewing cycle when the
needle thread breaks; the material clamps remain down and
hold the sewing material. The sewing material can be
removed by key operation.
• Owing to the vertical action of the cutting block system,
no
adaptation of the cutting blocks by filing is required in the
event of different cutting block heights.
• It can be selected on the control panel that after the sewing
material is released, the fabric support plate moves to the
starting position of the next buttonhole; this makes it easier
to
see when positioning the part to be sewn.
• Switch in the head cover for moving towards the ideal thread-
ing position for the looper and needle thread (gimp thread).
• Automatic adjustment (4-stage) of the cutting force for
the
buttonhole blade depending on the programmed button-
hole length.
• Electronically regulated needle thread tension (to be assigned
to programmed buttonholes).
• Fine adjustment with display for
• Seam start and seam end
• Position and length of the cross tack
• Time of the thread cutting
• Pneumatically actuated thread cutting systems work precisely
due to short drive paths.
• Electronic changing of the zigzag stitch width in the cross tack.
