Threading-up the Lateral Yarn Guide
The friction feed wheel, the permanent brake, the active thread clamp and the lateral yarn tensioner work together.
I. Designations of the lateral yarn guide
|
| Designation |
|---|---|
1 | Friction feed wheel |
2 | Permanent brake |
3 | Active thread clamp |
4 | Lateral yarn tensioner |
II. Threading-up the lateral yarn tensioner:
|
| |
1 | Eyelet |
2 | Lateral yarn tensioner |
3 | Yarn deflector |
Make sure that you thread-up the thread vertically through the lateral safety door.
- 1
- Bring the lateral yarn tensioner in still position (lock). This way the active thread clamp is opened.
- 2
- Thread the thread through one of the eyelets (1) on the lateral safety door.
- Eyelet 3 to 10: for threads that are threaded-up via the feed wheel.
The clamping positions of the active thread clamp are located in this area. - Eyelet 1 + 2 / 11 and following: for threads that are processed without feed wheel.
Example: Comb thread, draw thread
- 3
- Thread-up the thread vertically downwards in the eyelet (2) of the lateral yarn tensioner.
- 4
- Feed the thread through the yarn deflector (3) to the yarn carrier.
- 5
- Bring lateral yarn tensioner in work position by unlocking.
