Intended use

The class 512 is a bartacker, the class 532 a button sewer designed for
sewing light to moderately heavy material. Such material generally con-
sists of textile fibres, but can also include leather. It is used in the clothing
industry and for domestic and motor-vehicle upholstery.
It may also be possible to produce technical seams with this bartacker/but-
ton sewer. In this case, however, the operator must assess the possible
risks which may arise (DÜRKOPP ADLER AG would be pleased to assist),
since such applications are on the one hand relatively unusual and, on the
other, so varied that no single set of criteria can cover them all. The out-
come of this assessment may require appropriate safety measures to be
taken.
As a general rule, only dry material may be sewn with this bartacker/button
sewer. The material must not be thicker than 10 mm (512) or 9 mm (532)
when compressed by the lowered sewing feet. The material may not con-
tain any hard objects.
The seam is typically sewn with sewing threads made from textile fibres
(cotton threads, synthetic threads or core threads) of the following dimen-
sions:
Class 512 Thread thickness dimension 50/3 - 130/3
Class 532 Thread thickness dimension 50/3 - 150/3
Before using any other thread the possible dangers arising must be as-
sessed and appropriate safety measures implemented if necessary.
This automatic sewing machine may only be set up and operated in dry,
well-maintained premises. If the automatic sewing machine is used in
premises which are not dry and well-maintained, it may be necessary to
take further precautions which should be agreed in advance (see EN
60204-31:1999).
