Cutting Length - Duerkopp Adler 558 Operating Instructions Manual

2.12 Cutting Length

The cutting length is determined by the length of the cutting block.
It can be altered by changing the cutting block.
The order numbers for the different cutting blocks are, taking into account the sewing
device used (E no.), to be found on the device sheets for the 558 or 578.
Changing the cutting block
Cutting block 3 and cutting knife 4 are designed so that two configurations are possible:
–
Configuration top (on cutter bar 1)
–
Configuration bottom (below the clamp plates on the anvil body 6)
To change the cutting block:
–
Loosen screw 2 or 8 and remove the cutting block or cutting knife entfernen.
–
Insert the new cutting block and cutting knife and tighten screws 2 and 8 again.
Attention !
When inserting push the new cutting block to the back until touching on the stop 5
or 7.
Cutting knife for "cutting before sewing" have a larger eye form than a cutting
knife for "cutting after sewing".
In order to avoid having two different knife impressions on one cutting block the
cutting block corresponding to the cutting knives must always be inserted.
Cutting knives with two different knife impressions cause buttonholes to not be
cleanly cut and must be trued again (see Chapter 2.13).
Caution Risk of Injury !
Pull the mains plug.
Change the cutting block and cutting knife only with the
machine turned off.
ATTENTION !
Insert only the cutting blocks corresponding to each cutting
knife.
