Yarn carrier carriage for different knitting situations

There are three yarn carrier carriages available that are used in different knitting situations:

Engaging Width (1)	ID	Knit	Plating	Splitting
18 – 33 mm	281 973	E12│E14│E16 E6.2│E7.2	─	E3,5.2
15 – 29 mm	282 079	E3,5.2	─	E3,5.2
34 – 47 mm	282 080	─	E12│E14│E16 E6.2│E7.2│E3,5.2	E12│E14│E16 E6.2│E7.2

Yarn carrier engaging widths

We recommend the following engaging widths for the various knitting situations (Ua-b):

Gauge	ID	Knit	Plating	Splitting
E3,5.2	282 079	20 Ua: 10.0 Ub: 10.0	44 Ua: 22.0 Ub: 22.0	29 Ua: 14.5 Ub: 14.5
E12 E12/10	281 973	26 Ua: 13.0 Ub: 13.0	40 Ua: 20.0 Ub: 20.0	40 Ua: 20.0 Ub: 20.0
E14 E14/12	282 080	26 Ua: 13.0 Ub: 13.0	40 Ua: 20.0 Ub: 20.0	40 Ua: 20.0 Ub: 20.0
E6.2	282 080	26 Ua: 13.0 Ub: 13.0	42 Ua: 21.0 Ub: 21.0	42 Ua: 21.0 Ub: 21.0
E7.2	282 080	26 Ua: 13.0 Ub: 13.0	40 Ua: 20.0 Ub: 20.0	40 Ua: 20.0 Ub: 20.0

The entire engaging width consists of the value for the left (Ua) and the right (Ub) side.

Both values may be equal (symmetrical setting) or may differ.

Adjust engaging width:

2: Push insert (4) into the desired position.
A scale simplifies the adjustment.

Plating

Two yarn carriers which differ depending on the engaging width are used for plating.
Example:

Gauge	Leading (Knitting)	Following (Plating)
E12	26 Ua: 13.0 Ub: 13.0	40 Ua: 20.0 Ub: 20.0

Adjust the plating yarn carrier

Insert the plating yarn carrier into track 4 or 5.
The two yarn carriers must be positioned exactly in the center of the needle cross.
Adjust the eyelet of the following thread about 0.5 mm higher.

Recommendation:
Leave one yarn carrier rail unutilized to prevent the yarn carrier tips from displacing each other.

The Ua and Ub values are important for parking the yarn carriers correctly:
