5.1 Запраўка ніткі ў машыну
Proper threading is crucial for consistent stitch quality. Follow the threading path carefully, ensuring the thread passes through all guides, tension discs, and the take-up lever before entering the needle eye.
Figure 1: Roller foot and threading path. The yellow thread is guided through the machine's components towards the needle.
Figure 2: Post-bed design with needle and presser foot area. The elevated post bed facilitates sewing on three-dimensional items.
5.2 Adjusting Stitch Length
The stitch length can be adjusted using the dial located on the side of the machine head. Rotate the dial to select a stitch length between 1 mm and 5 mm. For longer stitches, the machine supports up to 8 mm (approximately 6-16 stitches per inch).
Figure 3: Stitch length adjustment dial. Numbers 1 through 5 indicate stitch length settings.
5.3 Reverse Stitching
To reinforce stitches, especially at the beginning and end of a seam, use the spring-loaded reverse lever. Press and hold the lever to sew in reverse; release it to resume forward stitching.
5.4 Presser Foot Operation
- Roller Foot: The machine comes equipped with a heavy-duty roller foot and roller feed, ideal for controlling thick materials like leather.
- Changing Presser Foot: The roller presser foot can be changed to a flat presser foot if desired, depending on the material and application.
- Пад'ёмнік каленяў: Use the knee lifter mechanism to raise the presser foot. This allows for hands-free lifting, providing a lift of approximately 1/2" (10 mm). The presser foot can also be lifted by hand up to 1/4" (7 mm).
5.5 Sewing Speed
The iKonix KS-810 is capable of sewing at speeds up to 2,500 to 3,000 stitches per minute (s.p.m.) with steady precision. Adjust your motor speed control for optimal performance based on material thickness and stitch complexity.
