  1. Loosen setscrews ❷ in SS lever ❶ , move the lever up and down to adjust the position, and the stitch pitch of the short stitch can be adjusted.
  • Commendable stitch pitch is 1.4 mm. (The center position of the slot of SS lever is the standard.) Turn SS lever ❶ in the direction of A to increase the stitch pitch, and turn it in the direction of B to decrease the stitch pitch. 2. When the adjustment is completed, install SS cover ❹ using setscrew ❸ supplied as accessories. Setscrew ❺ has to be tightened together with the pitch scale plate.

  3. Give the pulley of the machine head a turn by hand. Then, the main shaft reference signal is detected. The degree of an angle given by the main shaft reference signal is indicated on display section Ⓑ with a blip. (The value is the reference value.)

  4. In this state, give the pulley of the machine head another turn by hand to align marker line ❶ on the hand pulley with recess ❷ in the frame as shown in the figure.
    The direction of rotation is clockwise. If the pulley is turned counterclockwise, the degree of the aforementioned angle can differ by approximately two degrees.
    JUKI MF-7900 Sewing Machines - 23

  5. Press switch ❻ . (The value is the reference value.) Take a note of the numeric value shown on display section Ⓑ since it is used for “X. SETTING THE RAVEL-
    ING PREVENTION PARAMETER” p.12″.

  6. Remaining in the needle-bar upper stop position setting mode, turn the hand pulley of the machine head by hand to lower the needle until the position where its tip is aligned with the center of the looper is reached. Keeping the needle at that position, take a note of the numeric value shown on display section Ⓑ . It is necessary to take a note of the numeric value shown on display section Ⓑ since it is used for “X. SETTING THE RAVELING PRE- VENTION PARAMETER” p.12″.

If you press switch ❻ in this state, the upper stop position of the needle bar is set again. To prevent this, be sure to turn off the power once without pressing any switch.

JUKI MF-7900 Sewing Machines - 25

The direction of rotation is clock- wise. If the pulley is turned coun- terclockwise, the degree of the aforementioned angle can differ by approximately two degrees.

SETTING THE RAVELING PREVENTION PARAMETER

JUKI MF-7900 Sewing Machines - 26

  1. Turn ON the power with  held ❼pressed. switch (The item which has been changed during the previous work is displayed.)
  • If the screen display does not change, re-carry out operation described in step 1).
    (Caution) Be sure to re-turn ON the power switch when one or more seconds have passed after turning it OFF. If the power switch is re-turned ON immedi- ately after turning it OFF, the sewing machine may fail to operate normally. In such a case, be sure to turn ON the power switch again properly.

    1. Press switch ❸ or switch ❹ to set the setting number at 128. The current set value is shown on display section Ⓑ .
      Press switch ❺ or switch ❻ to lower the left needle until its tip is aligned with the center of the looper. At this time, read the displayed value. Change the value shown on display section Ⓑ to a value which is ob- tained by subtracting the value shown on display section Ⓑ in 5) “IX. SET- TING THE UPPER STOP POSITION OF THE NEEDLE BAR” p.10 from the aforementioned value.
      Example) The value shown on display section Ⓑ in 5) “IX. SETTING THE UPPER STOP POSITION OF THE NEEDLE BAR” p.10 is 5. The value displayed when the descending left needle tip is aligned with the cen- ter of the looper is 90. Subtract the former value 5 from the latter value 90. (i.e., 90 – 5 = 85) Press switch ❺ or switch ❻ to change the value shown on display section Ⓑ to
  1. After completion of the changing procedure, press switch ❸ or switch ❹ to confirm the updated value.

(Caution) If the power is turned OFF before carrying out this procedure, the changed content is not updated. When switch ❸ is pressed, the display on the panel changes to the previous setting No. When switch ❹ is pressed, the display on the panel changes to the subsequent setting No. After completion of the operation, the machine is returned to the normal sewing state by turning OFF the power and re-turning it ON.
