IntroductionThis Engineer’s Manual is for technical service engineers. In the instruction manual for the maintenance engi-neers of sewing machines and sewing workers in a sewing factory, how to operate a sewing machine is alsodescribed in detail. However, in this manual, [Adjustment Procedure], [Results of Value Change for Adjustment],and the roles of each component are described: these are not included in the instruction manual.When maintenance is performed for our sewing machines, refer not only to this manual, but also to the instructionmanual and parts list.

This engineer’s manual describes the basic adjusting values as the reference values in the first page, and theobserved events caused by sewing and mechanical faults as the [Results of Value Change for Adjustment] and[Adjustment Procedure] in the second page.

Reverse Feed Lever Position Adjustment1. Set the stitch dial to the maximum value on the scale.2. Fasten the clamping screw of the reverse feed connection arm.3. Adjust so that the clearance of 0.5 to 1.5 mm is provided between the

reverse feed lever and the stopper when the reverse lever is slightly pressed down. Then, fasten the clamping screw .

(Caution) For a sewing machine equipped with the touch-backmechanism, a clearance of 11.5 ± 0.5 mm should beprovided between the top end of the rod of the reversefeed cylinder and the reverse feed cylinder knucklejoint . (12 ± 0.5mm for the LU-2220N-7)Fasten the locknut securely in the reverse feed cyl-inder knuckle joint .

Adjustment of condensation amount at thread trimming(LU-2220N-7)1. Loosen the fixing nut of the reverse cylinder knuckle joint .2. Adjust the gap between the rod tip of the reverse cylinder and the

reverse cylinder knuckle joint . (Turn the rod tip of the reversecylinder .)o Reduce it by 12mm or more. → The amount of condensation is

reduced.o Increase it by 12mm or more. → The amount of condensation is

increased.3. After adjustments, tighten the fixing nut .4. After the adjustment of the amount of condensation, check the position

of the reverse feed lever.

(Caution) When the amount of condensation is reduced, theresidual thread length on cloth side becomes shorter.However, if this amount is too small, the material clothmay be torn according to the stitch length. Such aninadequate setting can result in stitch skipping or threadbreakage.On the other hand, too much condensation can giverise to defective thread spreading, finally leading tothread breakage.The recommendable amount of condensation is 1.5 to2.0mm.

If the clearance between the stopperand the reverse feed lever is toolarge:o The top end of the reverse feed

lever will interfere with the bed.As a result, the stitch length for thereverse feed stitching may beshortened.

If the clearance between the stopperand the reverse feed lever is toosmall:o The reverse feed lever will in-

terfere with the stopper . As aresult, stitch length for the normalfeed stitching may be shortened.

1) Releasing Torque AdjustmentChange the pressure of the safety clutch (if the safety clutch is hard tobe released or it is released too easily) following the procedure de-scribed below.1. Remove the timing belt from the lower sprocket .2. When the adjusting screw is fastened, the pressure of the safety

clutch will be increased. When the adjusting screw is loosened, thepressure of the safety clutch is decreased.

3. Fix the lower sprocket and turn the safety clutch bushing untilthe safety clutch pawl comes off the groove on the safety clutchbushing . A torque developed at the time when the safety clutchpawl comes off the groove is taken as the releasing torque.

4. Adjust the standard releasing torque to 13.23 ± 1.47N•m (135±15kgf•cm).

5. After adjustment, put the timing belt on the lower sprocket.(Refer to [5.-(3) How to replace the Timing Belt] for how to put thetiming belt on the lower sprocket).

2) How to reset the Safety MechanismIf an excessive load is applied to the hook driving shaft, the safety clutchwill be released. In this case, the hook will not rotate even if the hand-wheel were turned.1. Reset the safety mechanism with the machine head tilted.2. Insert the screwdriver (medium) supplied with the machine into

the hole A in the safety clutch bushing .3. Hold the screwdriver (medium) supplied with the machine by hand

to prevent the safety clutch bushing from turning, and rotate thehand-wheel in the reverse direction.

4. When the safety clutch clicks, the safety clutch pawl fits in thegroove on the safety clutch bushing . This completes the resettingprocedure of the safety clutch.

Adjustment Procedure Results of Improper Adjustment

o If the releasing torque is set to anexcessively high value:• The hook, hook driving shaft

gear or related components willbreak.

o If the releasing torque is set to anexcessively low value:• The safety clutch will be re-

leased too easily. His will impairsmooth operation of the sewingmachine.

1) Oil Distribution DiagramThe oil distribution diagram is shown on the left.

2) Supplying and Replacing Oil

Take care of the following points when supplying or replacing oil.(1) Check whether or not the oil level reaches the specified level on the oil level gauge .

Supply oil to the tank until the [H] line on the oil level check window is reached. Perform the warming-upoperation of the machine until oil flow from the hook driving shaft saddle is confirmed. Then, stop themachine. At that time, the oil surface in the tank should reach a level within the range of [H] and [L] tosatisfy the specified level of oil. If the oil surface fails to reach the specified level, supply oil from the oil port

.(Caution) Be sure to close the oil port cap .(2) Inspect the oil sight window to make sure that oil is supplied to the hook (Oil spouts from the oil reservoir

and flows toward the hook driving shaft saddle).(Oil should always accumulate by the depth of approximately 1 mm of the bottom of the oil sight window.This is the proper amount of oil to spout from the oil reservoir).

(3) Observe the oil flow in the urethane tube from the lower section of the bed to check whether or not oil isfed to the hook driving shaft saddle and then circulated.

(4) Carefully observe the filter to check whether or not oil changes in color, due to oxidation and deterioration.If oil changed in color obviously, replace the deteriorated oil with new oil without delay. To change oil,loosen the drain cock (hexagon head bolt) located under the bed tank and expel the deteriorated oilfrom the drain outlet. Remove the top cover of the bed, clean inside the bed with cleansing oil and dry itwith an air-blow. At this time, take care not to allow any foreign material, including a screw, to enter the bedtank. After the bed tank is drained and cleaned, securely fasten the drain cock . (As reference, replaceit every 500 hours of operation of the sewing machine).When replacing the oil, also replace the filter with a new one. (Refer to next page for how to replace it).

(Caution) When replacing oil, also replace the packing (Part No. RO068190100) for the drain cock and the packing (Part No. 10701209) for the bed top cover with new ones.Be sure not to use any oil other than JUKI New Defrix Oil No. 1.

3) Filter Replacement ProcedureRemove the magnet and filter element in the filter and washthem once a month after the first operation of the machine.

4) Adjusting the amount of oil in the hook and cleaning the hook filterOil amount in the hook(1) Oil splashes from the race surface as illustrated in the sketch.(2) When the oil adjusting screw is fastened (turn the screw clock-

wise), the oil amount in the hook is decreased.(3) When the oil adjusting screw is loosened (turn the screw coun-

terclockwise), the oil amount in the hook is increased.(Caution) The adjusting screw can be turned by a quarter revo-

lution, within which the amount of oil in the hook canbe adjusted from the minimum to the maximum value.If the adjusting screw is excessively turned, the rub-ber ball placed inside the tapped hole will be crushedand the amount of oil in the hook will no longer be ad-justed. So take the greatest care.

How to clean the Filter in the HookIf the filter is clogged, the machine cannot be oiled. So it is neces-sary to clean the filter periodically. Clean the filter following the proce-dure described below.(1) Remove the hook from the main unit of the sewing machine. Loosen

the oil amount adjusting screw and take out the rubber ball placed inside the tapped hole.

(2) Blow air to the tapped hole of the oil amount adjusting screw .

Adjustment Procedure Results of Improper Adjustment

o If the filter element is cloggedwith dust or the like, a return oilflow may fail. In this case, oil mayoverflow the top of the hook drivingshaft saddle, resulting in oilleakage.

o If the oil amount in the hook is in-sufficient, the hook may generateheat. As a result, the hook will soonwear out, so causing seizure.

o If the oil amount in the hook is ex-cessive, the thread or material maybe stained with oil. Also, the oilconsumption will be larger.
