ll. Setting up tor sewing

In order to produce high quality work the machine must be adiusted and set up wilh the grealesl precision and care.
 1. Choice of Stitch
On and off, st;rggered or nornrrl, 16 or 24 mnt long, tapes, etc.
Reler to the sewing charts which will give various combinations. The nunrbers along the top and bottonr of theclrarts corresponri wiihthe
numl:ers of ilre neeclle positions on the ntachine. The tapes ,ltor'llioned ma5, be partly er cornnletely lefl out.

2. Position of the sewing and hook needles

The needles fitust bc pushed {ully home in their bearings, with the flat surlace ol the shaft facins the scre'rs so that they press on them;
al',vays ensurc that the scrL'ws are well tightcned än(l that the neccllos thcmsclves are straight.

A. Machirres l-S and ll-S: For every stitcit a needle anci hook rreeclle are used, the neeclle is a{rv.lys on the left (fi-q. 5).
B. Machines l-v und !l-v: Ordinary stitch: Refcr to A (fi9.5 lcft).
On and off stitcn: lor tlris style of sevring each stitch r'equires two sewing neecffcs and one hook necdle. the latter is always in the
centre (fi9.5 right).
An exceptiorr is the so callcci "conrl:inecl stitch" see scpar.rtc table.

3. Positioning the Grippers (fig. 5)

Titese are placed on the gripper shalt "a" underneath inc Ji'ont saddlo platc olthe feeding table; theirfunclion is to take the thread loop
iornerl by ihe sewing needle {rom the laiter to the hook needle. Care should be taken that the surfaces of the gripper and those o{ the
g|ipper shaft aro clean. For every hook therc rtrust be a glripper. See that tlre screvrs are really ti.cyht,
A" Machinesl-Sandll-SIAllowtltesaddletontakeaconrpleienlovementirrwardsurrtil theneedleslravereachedtlreirlowestpositrorr,
ancl the small line on the left cant ("h" irr fig.5) corresponds with ihe centre oi the gripper shaft. Naw place the lyripper close to the
right han{l sicie ol the hook needle.
B. Machirres l-v and ll-v: Have the table irt ils open position arrd then insert the grippers: cenire hook needle, centre double gripper.
See nurnbels of the rreedle and ounchinq bar.

4. Insertion of the stabbers

These are placed ilr the stallber bar (punclring bar) vthich is also tound underneath the lrorrt saddle 1-rlate. For every rreedle, botlr se'ling
and hook, a stabber is required; check the nunrbering. First loosen all the screws ;n the cover plate, therr push the rreedles inlo their bear-
ings until they are conrpletely home.Tighten all the screws which hold the needles. The remaining screws shouid be rrornrally tight. Should
*alter sonre time*tlrc stabbers not picrce the paper sulticiently lhe stabber har should be adjusted slightly hiqher, and this is eflected by
turning the ecccrrtric rod "C" {RS.1)

5. lnsertion o{ cam pieces (only for machines FK-v-S}

For the diflerent types ancl lengths oi stitch we supply wilh the machine 2 cam pieces marked "E" and "V". Accordirrg to requiremerrls
these are screwed on lo the can {left side rrachine .sicle) and rranrely "E" for ordinary l6 and 24 mm stilches or "V" for 16 and 24 mnr
on and off stitch.
To cxchange the same the follov,ring has to be done with the tablo in thc OUT position:
1. Remove Roller,
2. Exclrarrge cam piece,
g. According to the rcguired iength of stitch 16 or 24 mffi the cam rolier has to be inserted in the corr€sponding siot cl the canr lever "U"
and fixed (fig, 6).

6. Adjustment of Thread Guides for Braiding (fig. a)

Thebraidersarefittedtotheslidlrrgbar"d"whichrunsinthegroovecilhestilchingl:ar'"e"asfollows:Chooselhelengtholthebraidinr;
stitch and adjusl the connectirlg link "g" accordinclly (1,,",'1o", o'. '7'u'); tunt the hand witeel unlil lire bar"d" has nroved conrpletely to
the right and the marks "f" are corresponding; novr place the braider close {o the right !rarrd side of tlre needle. Clteck the sewing chart.
It will kie {ound easier to thiead the braider before placing it into position (nS. t).

7. Check whether:
a. The points of the stabbers ancl necdles are exactly opposite one another and the needles are exactly in the centre of the slots in the
t"I saddle plates and in the stiiching bar. Correct by packing uncler the {ront machine Jeet.
$. b, Whcn a sharply creased sheet is placed on the saddle, the needles pierce exactly in the centre of the iold.
c. The grippers pass behind the sewinq needles with a distarrce o{ about'frl'flr11 belween theniif necessafy adjust cone "O" (ng.1).

8. Thread (fig.1)
-Ihe
For e'rery sewing rreedle arid every braider stitch a cop of thread is required. iront cop holders arc for tho braider stitches and the next
two rovr's "2" arrd "3" for the sewing slitches. Machine l-S has no 3rd row. ii 7 or I stitches are required then use the 2 outside holders
of 1st row for the sewing needles.
 L Threading Up
Threaclirrg up is done in accorclance with fi9.1. The thread is drawn through tlre lension disc which lies direclly over the sev.ring needle,
Tlre threads are ylassed througlr the steel tongues of the stitching bar and knotted together by hand.

10. Tape Sewing (fig.1 and 8)

The reels ol tape should trirn casily. The ends of the tape are dravrn betvreen the tension plaie o{ the supporl and on tirrougir the slots oi
the tape guides (f)9.7). The tapcs can either be hraided only or'sewn and braided on the sections (fi9.2 and 3).When sewing through the
t:pe it shauld be noted that only lhe sewing needle passes thfough the tape and r.rot ihe hook needle. Be{ore sewirrg the l'irst section 2
,,vooCen book blocks must be slid into positiorr and the tapcs clanrped to tire sanre by means of the clanrps supplied,

11. Sewing with mull (fiq.1)

The rod with the null is g:laced irt ils bearirtgs. The end oi the nrull passes flrsl througir the brake rods and then betweetl the tape puller
bar and tape guide bar. Tlre tension on lhe mull nray be atl.iusled b;v passinq it roirnd niore or less brake rods.

12. Sheet Holders for lrench sewing (fig. a)

To prevent tlle scwn seciions coming {orwar"d again after sevring and looserting the chain stitch the sireet holders "X" should be fltted
(fi$J. I ).

lll. Sewing
All posilions nrarked ir red and the carns should be greased daily; lhe grease boxes sSould be {illed fronr time to iifi€.
Before settinq the ntachine in nrotiorr artd particularly in cold weather, it sltouid be tested that the gripper shait move s lreely- Old dried nil
shoulcl be rerrroved with a few clrops of petrcil ort the slta{t, and oiled;lhis prevents any chance o{ the needles or gripper points being
da rrraged.

1. Safety measures:
Before turrring the nrachirre by hand or rnaking arry adjustrrrents vrhatsoever (e.o. change the size, etc.) slip the safety catch on llre right ma-
chine fool to the left. Only when sewing with power is it to be nroved to the riglrt. When turning the nrachirle over by hand press lhe treadle
dovsn to release the brarke hut the safety catch must be to lhe left. To preverrt accidents note lhis carefuily.

2. Sewing
First lurn a few sections through the machine by hand and adjust the table support so that the sewn sections touch it lightly. in order lo
do this release wing !rut "H" (tig. 1) and tutn hand wheel "1". Ds not have the table too higlh otherwlse the books will bunch together;if ii
is too deep, the books will hang lradly, and both give bad sev,ring.
ll all is corrcct rlove the salety lever io the right and scw on power. After the last section of each book has been sewn a "waste stitch"
must be mäde, that is, one revolution oi thc machine must be made without a section on the saddle. AJter the "waste slilch" carrv on as
{ollows:

Sev.ring with wootien blocks. Alter the ''uvasle stitch":

A. Machines l-S and ll-S: Prcss lever "W" (fie1. 10) backwards to lift the sheet presser [:ar; press hand lever "K" (fig. 1) clownwards
and at the same time lever "K" (fi9.1) {orwards;this loosens the thread. Therr inserl wooden block until the front edge oi lhe sante
is level wlth the guide bar. Carry on sevrirrg.
B. Machines l-v and ll-v: Press lever "W" (fig.10) backwards to lift the sheet presser bar: lever "K" (nS. 1) is to be pushed upyraros
and immediately returned; hand lever "h" is to be pushed backwards ancl left. Inseri the wooden blocks as previously, apd r6turn
lei,er "lr" to its forward position. Carry on scwing.

The length o{ the loosened thread should .be tbe vridth of the wooden block. lt is better to have this slightty longer than shorter as other-
wise it mav cause thread breakases,

Sewing witfi nrull or tape drawing arnr (without wooden blocks)

-Ihe length
Press bar "L" (fiS.8) douvnwards so as to draw out the mull or tapes. of the movcment may be adjusted on stop disc "M"
Carry on sewing. When sev,ring with mull the brake springs "N" (tig.9) righl and tefi must bo tightened.

Machines with Aulomatic mull leed

Only best quaiity mull shouid be used. Large and heavy books musl be sewn betweefl biochs and not wilh this automalic device.
On the side guicle rails above tlte book delivery table knives are fitted which should slightly cut into the side of the back to give the sarne
stability. The br:ok support is slid cn the book delivery tabte until the wooden bar touches the sewn book. The brake on this may be ad-
justed bv rneans of the spring.
 French Sewing:
For this the sewing is continuous without lvooden blocks, tapes or gauze. The side knives and the bracket slide are used as above (sewing
without blochs). Fix the sheet holders according to lii 11.
A "waste stitch" is made after everv book.

3. Cutting out the sevYn books:

a. When using wooden blocks cut all material along the centre groove oJ the block-
b. When using tape drawing arm:
Withtaoe: Cutthethreadloopo{thewastestitchnearestthefeedingsaddleandalsobraiderstitch(nrarkedwithacrosslineinfig.2

drawn apart untii the chaifl stitch is releasecl and than cutthe mull down the midd'le,
c. For french sewing cut the loop oi ihe waste stitch nearest the saddle.

4. Thread Tensions
lllachines i-S and ll-S (fig. l): The tension discs "V" are individuaily adjustable; first loosen tension screw "Y" and turn the nut "Z":
clockwise less tension: anticlockwise more tension"
.for normal thickness ol thread Nos.20-50 whereas very thin thread No. 60 requires
Thread tension springs shown with "0.8" can be used
a spring rnarked "0.75".

5. Adiustment of Sewing
To obtain more or less iighlness of sewing adjtrst:

a. The sheet presser bar: the pin "t" (ng.10) pushed againstiisei{ give looser sewing andviceversa; in generafwith thin paperthepresser
bar should press backwards more than with thick paper.
b. The side brackets which act on the wooden blocks by means of screw "q" (fiS. 1).
c. The spring ol the bracket slide on the book support table.

 Automotic Cutting-Off Device FK l-S, FK tl-S, FK lv-S ond FK tlv-S

Generql

With the Autotnotic Cutting Device of the Book Sewing Mochine, the sewing threod
between the books is cut, leoving q sufficiently long end to the some for further proces-
si ng.
The Cutting Device is set in motion by the lefr hond tresdle.
It is importont thoi the positions rnorked in red ore oiled doily.

Insertion of cutting knives

First set up the mochine for sewing. Now
insert o knife ''l'of the left of every
sewing rreedle (not hook ne"Ale). låiert
tlä k;T6;lhe position morked 'M' and
slide sidewoys to the required position.
Note thot the knives ore ploced over lhe
steel bond '2'. Clomp the knives posi-
ti on by meons of the speciol screw-in'3'
ond knurled nut '4' in the knife bqr '5'.
Check by meons of o mirror es shown in
pi cfure 'A' thct the knives ore correcily
positioned. The piciure shows two knives
'l' from" below.

Operstion

After the losf section. oi every book is sewn o woste stitch is mode, i.e. the soddle mokes
o complete movemenl wi thout feeding o section.
Äs the iable moves forword on this wqsfe stitch press the left treodle downwords. This
mokes the knife bar with knives move sidewoys which cotåEes up ihe sewing threcd. When
sewing the nexf section ihe ihreqd winds round the knife'1'. The threod however, should
not be cui ot once os the ends would be ioo short. For this reoson the knives ore noi
shorpened qt ihe front.
By sewing further sections the threod looped round the knives slides bockwords to the
shorp position af the knife when the some is cut.

A. Operation:
By means of this arranEement ihe backing matei'iai imuli or tapes; is automaticaily looped bet-
ween the books, thereby discarding the insertion cl ihe wocden biocks beiweön eadr bcok,
which takes a great deal af tirne.
The de-viec opelates as {a!'lcws:
After the last seetisn af eacå book a waste stitch is made i.e. a camplete saddle rncvement is
made wiihoutfeeding a section" Whitst the table {vrithcut a secticn} is movi.g in.rvards the left
treadle is dep:essed. This has the effect cf raising and loweri*g the two bars 5 & A to *h.idr
guides are fixed, a certain distance which is adjustable. The springs 4 then draw down ihe
backing materialto form a ioop.

3. Adiustm+ats:
1. Loosen the kn*r1ed *ut N*. i and press the same backwards.
2. Leosen €efew right and left 2 and draw bars 5 and S apari.
3. The backing material is to be pushed frcm the top in between the two bars 5 and € and
drawn dewnwards between the guide plates {if necessary use the threading hook}.
4" Tapes. Eefore teeding these betwecn ihe bars 5 and 6 they should be passed through the
guides No.3, wfrictr may be positioned as desired.
5. The adjusting springs 4 should give a slight pressure against tfre backing material by means
of screw 1. Retighten Screw 2.

The machine is now reaciy for c'peration.
