It differs by the selected machine head. @. SET-UP The SC-922 can be used with the direct-motor type machine head as a stand-alone control box. It can also be used with the belt-driven type machine head by installing on the motor unit.
2. Installing the motor unit To use the SC-922 with the belt-drive type machine head, install the control box on the motor unit according to the followng nstructon. Install the motor unit on the table with the fitting bolt asm. suppled wth the unt as accessores.
4. Installing the belt 1) The belt dstance, between sewng machne pul- ley and motor pulley, must be parallel. 2) The belt tenson should be adjusted by turnng the tenson adjust nuts 1 to change heght of the 15mm (9.8N) motor, so that the belt snks down by about 15 mm (9.8N) when t s depressed by band at the center of the belt span.

!5 Holding time of lifting presser foot (Function setting No. 47) This function automatically lowers the presser foot when the time set with the setting No. 47 has passed after lifting the presser foot. When the pneumatic type presser foot lifter is selected, the holding time control of lifting presser foot is lim- itless regardless of the set value.
Page 43
!8 reverse revolution to lift the needle after thread trimming (Function setting No. 56) Ths functon s used to make the sewng machne rotate n the reverse drecton after thread trmmng to lft the needle bar almost to hghest poston. Use ths functon when the needle appears under the presser foot and t s lkely to make scratches on the sewng products of heavy-weght materal or the lke.

11. Setting of the auto lifter function WarNING : When the solenoid is used with the air drive setting, the solenoid may be burned out. So, do not mistake the setting. When the auto-lifter device (AK) is attached, this function makes the function of auto-lifter work. 1) Turn ON the power swtch wth swtch 5 held pressed.
Display does not appear: The key lock function is ineffective. 13. Initialization of the setting data All contents of function setting of SC-922 can be returned to the standard set values. 1) Turn ON the POWER switch with all swtch 4 , swtch 5 and swtch 6 held pressed.
15. How to connect the material edge sensor For SC-922, a commercially available photoelectric sensor can be connected and used as a material end sensor. A connection example is shown below. 1) Connect the material end sensor to the connector 2-wire Pn No.
$. MaINtENaNCE 1. removing the rear cover WarNING : to prevent personal injuries caused by electric shock hazards or abrupt start of the sewing machine, remove the cover after turning oFF the power switch and a lapse of 5 minutes or more. to prevent personal injuries, when a fuse has blown out, be sure to replace it with a new one with the same capacity after turning oFF the power switch and removing the cause of the blown-out of the fuse.
