I. GENERAL INFORMATION
A. INTRODUCTION
The air Operated Underbed Trimmer contains a trimming system that cuts both the
needle and bobbin threads simultaneously. A movable and a stationary blade, mounted
on the throat plate are used in combination to pick up and cut the threads.
Solid state electronics are used to sense the position of the needle and to trigger the
trimming mechanism at the proper time as well as to control footlifting and backtacking
operations.
B. APPLICATION
The underbed Trimmer/Positioner enables the operator to automatically control the
position of the needle in or out of the work, thereby eliminating the need for hand position-
ing. In addition, the top and bottom threads are automatically cut beneath the throat
plate after positioning. This eliminates the need for hand trimming.
C. SYSTEM COMPONENTS
The trimmer components, which can be either pre-installed on the sewing machine head
and factory tested, or field installed, include:
1. Standard Components
a. Pulloff Assembly
b. Tension Release and Pulloff Assembly
c. Thread Cutter and Wiper Air Cylinder Assembly
d. Solenoid Air Valve Control Unit
2. Optional Components
e. Foot Lifter
f. NeedleCooler

II. TRIMMER INSTALLATION
A. PULLOFF ASSEMBLY
Remove the machine face plate and mount the Pulloff assembly as shown in INS-2377.
B. TENSION RELEASE AND PULLOFF ASSEMBLY
1. Remove from the machine the thread tension discs assembly and tension release
pin.
2. Drill and Tap mounting holes using appropriate drill fixture supplied. Refer to machine
drilling instructions shown in drawing INS-2355.
3. Mount tension release assembly and the thread tension discs assembly to the sewing
machine as shown in drawing INS-2353.
C. CUTTER AND WIPER ASSEMBLY
1. Remove from the machine throat plate and feed shaft clamp plate.
2. Rework clamp plate as shown in drawing INS-1630 and fasten to the machine.
3. Fasten cutter and wiper cylinder assembly to sewing machine bed.
4. Mount new throat plate assembly on the machine with original hook basket retaining
finger.
D. SOLENOID AIR VALVE CONTROL UNIT
1. Mount solenoid valve assembly in back of the machine bed as shown in INS-2379.
2. Mount foot lifter air cylinder assembly as shown in INS-2379.
E. NEEDLE COOLER
1. Fasten needle cooler tube to presser foot and roller housing bracket.
2. Mount treadle air valve assembly supplied between the motor and treadle arm.
F. FOLDER OPENER
1. Mount folder opener air cylinder assembly on bed of machine.
2. Assemble the folder opener assembly to the machine cylinder arm.

III. PRELIMINARY SETTINGS
NOTE: Do not connect the air supply at this time.
1. Set the machine head in the table and install "V" belt.
2. Time sewing machine to normal sewing conditions.
3. Connect all air lines as shown in circuit diagram drawing INS-2339.
4. Connect all electrical cables to the main control box.
5. Thread the sewing machine and sew on material being used on the operation.
IV. TRIMMER ADJUSTMENTS
A. TENSION RELEASE
Adjust puller for sufficient thread tail left on needle to start sewing on the next cycle.
B. CUTTER AND WIPER ASSEMBLY
1. Loosen the 10-32 nut on the cylinder shaft and adjust the knife travel so that the
cutting edge is about 1/16" past the cutting edge of the stationary blade.
2. Adjust the wiper to pass between the needle and the presser foot without striking
either. By loosening the two nuts on the cylinder shaft, the assembly will rotate
around the screw to position the wire hook. Bending may be necessary for proper
thread pickup.
3. With the power and air off, manually stimulate the trimmer sequence of operation
cycle several times to insure that the proper adjustments have been made.
C. SOLENOID AIR VALVE CONTROL UNIT
Turn power and air on. Set regulator to read 60 PSI and adjust the flow control of the
trim air cylinder to reduce bobbin spin.
D. FOOTLIFTER ASSEMBLY
Adjust footlifter cylinder for required amount of lift. Readjustment of footlift linkage may
be necessary.

ML199-9
E. NEEDLE COOLER
Adjust the flow control for the desired air flow to cool the needle and keep the throat plate
knife clean.
F. FOLDER OPENER
Adjust folder opener mounting bracket for required amount of opening.
V. TRIMMER SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
A. UNDERBED TRIMMER
The operation of the underbed trimmer is as follows:
1. Needle positioner stops with the needle thread positioned between the 5 and 6 o'clock
position across the hook. The needle is used for the reference point or 12 o'clock
position.
2. The movable knife is extended into the needle loop and in position to pick up the
bobbin thread.
3. The needle positioner moves the takeup and needle to up position.
4. The tension release, the pulloff and wiper cylinders operate after the positioner
reaches to up position.
5. Then the movable knife is returned to cut both needle and bobbin threads.
B. TENSION RELEASE
The needle thread tension is released so that the thread puller can pull off enough
thread to start the next sewing operation.
C. NEEDLE THREAD WIPER
The needle thread wiper pulls the needle thread above the foot before it is raised. If the
thread is trapped under the foot a long tail will be left at the start of the next sewing
opera-tion.

VI.TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM PROBABLE CAUSE CORRECTIVE ACTION
Needle thread not cut.
Bobbin thread is cut
Positioner solenoid binding
Movable blade missed needle
loop
Binds in trimmer linkage
Remove bind
Check synchronizer timing
to see that trimmer is fired
at correct time
Locate and remove bind.
A light bind would slow it
enough to miss needle
loop
Both threads not cut not
picked up
Defective movable blade
Water in air lines
Defective solenoid air valve or air
cylinder
Defective needle positioner logic
Binds in trimmer linkage
Replace
Check filter. Remove
water from air lines
Repair or replace
Repair logic
Locate and remove bind
Both threads picked up not
cut
Defective movable or stationary
blade
Stroke misadjusted failing to
reach cutting position
Replace
Readjust
Needle thread cut short Pulloff cylinder improperly
adjusted Readjust
Long tail left on top side at
start of sewing Wiper not operating or incorrectly
positioned causing thread to be
trapped under foot
Repair or reposition thread
wiper as required
Bobbin thread is cut short
Bobbin tension too tight
Bobbin thread slipped out of hook
on case
Bobbin case without hook being
used
Lossen bobbin tension as
much as possible
Run bobbin thread
through hook
Replace with correct
bobbin case
