LOWER LOOPER
Check:
PRIOR TO CHECKING LOOPER ADJUSTMENT; REMOVE FRONT AND REAR NEEDLE GUARDS.
LOOPER GAUGE - With looper at extreme left position, 1/8 inch (3.2mm) is the distance between looper point and centerline of needle; 1/16 inch (1.6mm) to left needle on Style 39500 PW, as shown in Fig. 7.
LOOPER CLEARANCE TO NEEDLE(S) - Turn handwheel in operating direction so that looper travels from the extreme left into scarf of needle or
left needle on Style 39500 PW. Point of looper should touch but NOT deflect needle(s).
Procedure:
PRIOR TO ADJUSTING LOOPER, POSITION UPPER LOOPER UP AND AWAY FROM LOWER LOOPER.
Gauge No. 21225-1/8 or 21225-1/16 should be used to properly set looper gauge.
Position lower looper (A) to extreme right and loosen clamp nut (B). Then position looper to extreme left and set looper gauge by adjusting looper in or out of the looper shaft to obtain 1/8 inch (3.2mm) or 1/16 inch (1.6mm) for Style 39500 PW. Rotate handwheel to position looper into scarf of needle or left needle on Style 39500 PW and set looper point to touch but NOT deflect needle(s), then position looper to extreme right and tighten clamp nut (C).

REAR NEEDLE GUARD
Remove spring from inside of lower knife holder (A, Fig. 8), then assemble knife holder into throat plate support block.
Replace rear needle guard (B) using screw (C) with front edge of guard centered in slot of knife holder as shown. Temporarily tighten screw (C) to hold guard in position, yet allowing guard to be adjusted.
Rotate handwheel in operating direction so lower looper (D) travels from the extreme left into scarf of needle(s). Set guarding surface of guard (B) to touch but NOT deflect
needle(s) while also setting guard as low as possible to prevent it from interfering with needle thread as loop is being formed to rear of needle(s), then tighten screw (C) securely.
Guard must NOT interfere with lower knife holder movement or contact lower looper at any point of travel.
FRONT NEEDLE GUARD
Replace front needle guard (E, Fig. 8) using screw (F). Temporarily tighten screw (F) to hold guard in position, yet allowing guard to be adjusted.
Rotate handwheel in operating direction until needle(s) is at lowest position, then set guarding surface of guard (E) to needle(s) with minimum clearance - approximately .004 inch (.10mm) and tighten screw (F) securely. Check adjustment to ensure needle(s) is NOT being pinched between front and rear needle guards.
UPPER LOOPER
PROPER ADJUSTMENT OF THE UPPER LOOPER IS ESSENTIAL FOR SUCCESSFUL MACHINE OPERATION. THE PATH TRAVELED BY THE UPPER LOOPER EFFECTS THE MAXIMUM SEAM THICKNESS SEWN.
Rotate handwheel in operating direction and closely observe the path of upper looper as it travels from the extreme right and approaches the lower looper as shown in Fig. 9. The point of upper looper MUST pass the notch in head of lower looper with minimum clearance and pass under lower looper thread.
Again rotate the handwheel until the upper looper is positioned to extreme left as shown in Fig. 10. At this time, point of upper looper MUST be in position so the descending needle or right needle will pass to the right of the upper looper thread, which extends from the eye of the looper to the previously formed stitch. The upper looper must NOT contact the lower looper or needle(s) at any point of travel.

To adjust upper looper, follow instructions listed in sequence as follows:
-
Position upper looper at the left end of travel, loosen clamp screw (A, Fig. 11) and set looper shank to dimension "D" Fig. 11 above holder (B), then temporarily tighten screw (A).
-
With upper looper positioned at the right end of travel, loosen screw (C) and rotate holder (B) as required to set shank of looper slightly back of vertical, as shown in Fig. 12, then temporarily tighten screw (C, Fig. 11).
-
Rotate handwheel in operating direction bringing the upper looper into the lower looper, See Fig. 9. Loosen screw (A, Fig. 11) and set the point of upper looper to enter the notched area behind head of lower looper with minimum clearance.
-
Again rotate handwheel in operating direction until the upper looper is at the extreme left end of travel. Loosen screw (C, Fig. 11) and rotate upper looper holder as required to set point of upper looper to dimension "E" Fig. 13 from top of throat plate.
-
With upper looper still positioned at the left end of travel, it may be necessary to adjust the looper holder in or out of its shaft to set point of looper to dimension "F" Fig. 13 to the left of needle and/or right needle centerline. Rotate handwheel to position upper looper to the right end of travel, then tighten screw (C, Fig. 11) and screw (A) securely.
-
If the needle(s) is being deflected by the upper looper, clearance to the needle(s) can be increased by reducing the length of looper shank above holder, See Step 1. It will then be necessary to slightly reduce the angle back of vertical, See Step 2. Also reset upper looper to lower looper, See Step 3. Reversing this procedure will position the upper looper closer to the needle(s).

text_image
Technical diagram of a mechanical assembly with labeled components and directional arrows indicating movement or force.Fig. 15
If cutting edge of knife is tilted, loosen screw (C) and rotate holder (D) front to rear as required, then tighten screw (C). Holder MUST move freely, left to right, and NOT bind, with needle guard centered in slot of knife holder.
Adjust knife (A), left to right, by loosening locknut (E), screw (F) and set knife to specified seam width by measuring from center of needle to cutting edge of knife. Hold knife in this position and tighten screw (F). Adjust UPPER KNIFE; then sew-off on a piece of selected material to further check adjustment, by measuring the distance from needle penetration to edge of material. Readjust if necessary, to obtain specified seam width or appearance.
UPPER KNIFE
REMOVE NEEDLE(S) AND RE-ASSEMBLE UPPER KNIFE HOLDER INTO SLOT OF UPPER KNIFE DRIVING ARM. ALSO RE-ASSEMBLE UPPER KNIFE IN HOLDER AND HOLD KNIFE FIRMLY IN POSITION.
Check:
At lowest position the front tip of upper knife cutting edge must extend 1/64 - 1/32 inch (.4 - .8mm) below cutting edge of lower knife.
Procedure:
With upper knife (G, Fig. 15) at lowest position of travel and while holding upper knife firmly against lower knife, adjust knife holder (H) left to right, to position front tip of upper knife cutting edge 1/64 - 1/32 inch (.4 - .8mm) below cutting edge of lower knife, then tighten screw (J).
Assemble knife clamp (K) and chain guard (L) in position using nut (M). Set chain guard (L) against top surface of upper knife and slightly back of its cutting edge, then tighten nut (M).
Loosen screw (F) to enable spring pressed lower knife to move freely left to right. If desired, the lower knife can be locked in position by tightening screw (F) against knife holder.
NOTE: Locking nut (E) must be tightened to hold screw (F) in position; screw (F) also serves as a latch pin for cloth plate.
PRESSER FOOT ALIGNMENT

Loosen screw (B, Fig. 16) and adjust stitch tongue (C) left to right, to center over stitch tongue of throat plate as shown in Fig. 16, then tighten screw (B).
PRESSER FOOT LIFT
Check:
Lift presser foot to highest position and rotate handwheel in operating direction. Upper looper must not contact presser foot at any point of travel.
Procedure:
Loosen locknut (H, Fig. 17) and adjust stop screw (J) so presser foot will not interfere with upper looper, then tighten locknut (H).
Loosen locknut (K) and set stop screw (F) on upper end of lifter lever arm so there is approximately 1/16 inch (1.6mm) free motion in lifter lever before presser foot starts to rise, then tighten locknut (K).
PRESSER FOOT PRESSURE
Check:
Sufficient pressure must be maintained to feed work uniformly. Excessive spring pressure will cause feeds and presser foot to wear prematurely when chaining.
Procedure:
Rotate handwheel in operating direction until both main and differential feeds are positioned below throat plate. Loosen locknut (L, Fig. 17) and turn adjusting screw (M) clockwise for more pressure or counterclockwise for less pressure, then tighten locknut (L).
NOTE: Adjusting screw (M) will effect the function of pressure release bushing (A). Plunger must clear presser arm when pressure release bushing is unlocked. When release bushing is locked in position, presser foot must be held firmly against throat plate. If these conditions do not exist the following adjustment must be made.
Lock presser foot in position with pressure release bushing (A); loosen capnut (N) and adjust nut (P) up or down so its under surface is 1/16 inch (1.6mm) above screw (M) as shown in Fig. 17. Hold nut (M) in position and tighten capnut (N).

SHIRRING BLADE FOR STYLE 39500 PT
Replace shirring blade assembly. With shirring blade in position, lock presser foot in sewing position and turn handwheel in operating direction until feed dogs are at their highest position. Loosen screws (A, Fig. 18) and adjust shirring blade mounting bracket (B) so the shirring blade (C) is level and lies flat on the feed dog teeth. Position mounting bracket (B) forward or rearward to obtain 1/32 inch (.8mm) clearance between top front edge of shirring blade (C) and the underside of presser foot, then tighten screws (A).
With feed dogs still at their highest position, loosen screws (D) and set shirring blade (C) so its front edge is parallel to the differential feed dog teeth. Hold blade in position and tighten screws (D) maintaining the 1/32 inch (.8mm) clearance between top front edge of shirring blade and underside of presser foot.

text_image
Technical diagram of a mechanical assembly with labeled components A through GFig. 19
To center shirring blade (C) over differential feed dog, loosen screws in collar (A, Fig. 19), actuating collar (B), operating lever (C) and loosen tension screw (D). Move shaft (E) to the left or right as required to center shirring blade over differential feed dog. While holding blade in position, thrust both collars (A and B) against shaft bracket (F) to eliminate any end play in the shirring blade shaft, then tighten screws in collars (A and B). With the shirring blade properly adjusted and in position, set operating lever (C) in the slot of the shaft bracket and tighten its screw.
Tension on the shirring blade can be obtained by turning shaft collar (G) with spanner wrench No. 21388 Y, furnished with machine. When the proper amount of tension is obtained, hold shirring blade in position and tighten screw (D).
SETTING STITCH LENGTH
The actual stitch length produced is usually measured as the number of stitches sewn per inch of seam. This is determined by the distance feeds travel with their teeth protruding above the throat plate.
Class 39500 machines are fitted with a feed system having two separate feed dogs - MAIN (rear) and DIFFERENTIAL (front).
The resulting stitch length is determined to a great extent by travel of the main feed. The differential feed travel can be adjusted independent of the main feed and is used to gather or stretch the fabric prior to being stitched.
On the graduated scale of indicator plate (A, Fig. 20) the forward marking "L" indicates longest stitch length and the rear marking "S" indicates shortest stitch length.
To adjust stitch length turn both main and differential thumbscrews (B and C) clockwise to increase feed travel or counterclockwise to decrease feed travel.

text_image
Technical diagram of an engine assembly with labeled parts A, B, C, D, E, FFig. 20
After desired stitch length is obtained check the clearance between the main and differential feeds, also check clearance between the throat plate and both feeds. If an adjustment is necessary, set the feeds to have the same travel, then turn the handwheel in operating direction until the differential feed is positioned all the way to the rear. Loosen nut (D) and rotate eccentric ferrule (E) until maximum clearance is obtained. Hold ferrule in position and torque nut to 19-20 in. lbs. (22-23 cm/kg). If clearance cannot be obtained, See FEED DRIVE SEGMENT ADJUSTMENT.
If desired, thumbscrews can be locked in position by tightening nut (F) for the differential feed or by tightening pressure plug screw for the main feed, located in the bed directly above the main feed stitch regulating screw. This will prevent accidental changing of stitch length during machine operation.
NEEDLE THREAD CONTROL
Check:
The needle thread is controlled by the needle thread eyelet (A, Fig. 21) and the needle thread cam pull-off (B). The needle thread eyelet is set so the securing screw is centered in the screw slot front to back. Raise or lower the eyelet to have the needle thread barely touch the needle thread cam pull-off when the needle carrier is in its lowest position. Moving the eyelet up and back increases the needle thread in the stitch, moving the eyelet down and forward acts in the reverse.

text_image
Technical diagram of a mechanical assembly with labeled parts A, B, C, D, E, FFig. 21
Procedure:
To adjust needle thread control, loosen screw (C) and position thread eyelet (A) as described in check. Hold eyelet in position and tighten screw (C).
LOOPER THREAD PULL-OFF
Check:
Clearance between looper thread pull-off (D, Fig. 21) and needle thread cam pull-off (B) should be only enough to ensure proper take-up of looper thread as shown in Fig. 21.
Procedure:
Loosen screws (E) and rotate looper thread pull-off lever (F) front to back on needle driving shaft until proper clearance is obtained. Before tightening screws (E) be sure to take up all end play in needle drive shaft.
LOOPER THREAD CONTROL
Check:
When a normal amount of looper thread is drawn, upper and lower looper threads will be a little slack when needle(s) is at highest position.
Position guide so the looper thread is held in a straight line to the lower looper, with the lower looper at its extreme left end of travel.
The auxiliary upper looper thread guide should be centered in its adjusting slot and set slightly above a horizontal position.

Procedure:
Loosen screw (A, Fig. 22). Center lower loop-er thread eyelet (B) in its adjusting slot and set eyelet in a horizontal position. Hold eyelet (B) in position and tighten screw (A).
Loosen screw (C). Center upper looper thread eyelet (D) in its adjusting slot and set eyelet so it rests on the top surface of lower looper thread eyelet and back of lower looper thread eyelet eye.
Center auxiliary upper looper thread guide (E) in its adjusting slot and set guide so it is slightly above a horizontal position. Hold
lower looper thread eyelet (D) and auxiliary upper looper thread guide (E) in position and tighten screw (C).
To set frame lower looper thread guide (F) loosen screw (G) and move lower looper to its extreme left end of travel and position the guide so the looper thread is held in a straight line to the lower looper. Tighten screw (G).
NOTE: Moving eyelets (B and D) to the rear increases the amount of looper thread in the system and moving them forward reduces the amount of thread in the system.
POSITIONING THE PURL
If the needle thread loop is NOT being set properly as shown in Fig. 23, excessive seam grinning would result. Thread control adjustments which should be checked to correct this condition include:
- Lower looper thread tension too tight.
- Needle thread eyelet too high.
- Lower looper thread eyelet too far forward.
- Needle thread tension too loose.
If the purl is NOT being formed on the edge of the fabric as shown in Fig. 24, an unbalance between the looper threads is indicated, and improper coverage of the seamed edge would occur. If the purl is being pulled under the edge, check the following thread control adjustments:
- Lower looper thread too tight.
- Lower looper thread eyelet too far forward.
- Upper looper thread eyelet too far to the rear.
- Upper looper thread tension too loose.
If the purl is being pulled over the edge as shown in Fig. 25, check the following thread control adjustments:
- Upper looper thread tension too tight.
- Upper looper thread eyelet too far forward.
- Lower looper thread eyelet too far to the rear.
- Lower looper thread tension too loose.

THREAD TENSIONS
Thread tension is regulated by the tension assemblies. Turning tension nuts clockwise increases tension applied to thread, counterclockwise reduces tension. Normally, tension on the threads should be only enough to produce a balanced stitch.

ADJUSTING INSTRUCTIONS FOR FEED DRIVE MECHANISM
- Assemble parts as illustrated to feed control shaft (A, Fig. 26) and feed rock shaft (B); including feed bars.
- Thrust feed bars (C and D) against differential thrust guide on bed. Thrust left side of main feed bar (C) with left feed bar thrust guide (E). Align and thrust rear of feed bars with tilt adjusting pin and washer (F) and guide pin (G).
- Thrust the feed control shaft (A) assuring that washer (H) is against retaining ring (J) and flush against the recess in the bed casting. Collar (K) should be thrusted against the bed casting and tightened securely.
-
Main feed control link (L) and main feed drive lever (M) must be in alignment with main feed rocker lever (N) to avoid binding and secured in position by collars (P and Q).
-
Feed rock shaft (B) should be positioned with the opening of the retaining ring (R) upwards and thrusted against the main feed rock lever (N). Secure shaft (B) in this position by thrusting collars (S) against thrust washers (T) against the bed casting.
-
Differential feed control link (U) and differential feed control lever (V) must be in alignment with differential feed rocker lever (W) to avoid binding. Also the differential feed rocker lever (W) must thrust against the main feed rocker lever (N). Lever (V) and rocker lever (W) can be positioned as required and secured in place by their clamp screws.
-
A bind could occur in the main feed drive lever (M), differential feed control lever (V) and differential feed indicator lever (X) if the indicator plate (Y) is not properly aligned. Oversize holes are provided in plate (Y) for its mounting screws (Z) to allow repositioning to eliminate bind.
DIFFERENTIAL FEED CONTROL ADJUSTMENT
-
Move differential rocker lever block (AA) to lowest position in differential feed rocker lever (W).
-
Rotate differential feed indicator lever (X) counterclockwise until the pointer is at the rear end of the scale.
-
Clamp the indicator lever (X) with screw (AB).
DIFFERENTIAL FEED DRIVE SEGMENT ADJUSTMENT
-
Move differential rocker lever block (AA) to top position by rotating lever (X) clockwise.
-
Turn the handwheel until the feed bar is in its most rear position.
-
Loosen feed rocker lever clamp screw (AC).
-
Operate differential feed indicator lever (X) and tighten rocker lever clamp screw (AC) when the differential feed bar (D) shows no movement. Make sure differential feed rocker lever (W) thrusts against the main feed rocker lever (N).
DIFFERENTIAL FEED DRIVE LEVER
Standard location of the drive pin (AD) is to be in the upper hole of differential feed drive lever (AE). For longer differential feed travel move pin (AD) to lower hole of lever (AE).

TO REMOVE CRANKSHAFT
Crankshaft can be withdrawn easier if these steps are followed:
- Drain oil by removing plug screw located on back of machine near bottom edge of base.
- Remove top and bottom covers of machine.
- Remove feed eccentric nut (A, Fig. 27) and remove the eccentric (B).
- Remove key (C).
-
Remove three counterweights (D). Identify these counterweights so that they will be re-assembled in the proper places.
-
Unscrew oil tube (E) which holds crankshaft split bearing and oil pump. This tube is reached through bottom of bed casting.
-
Remove caps of bearings on crankshaft at points F, G and H. When re-assembling bearing caps make sure they are in their original position. Trademarks are stamped on both halves of the caps and both trademarks should be on the same side of the bearings. Also, screws should be re-assembled in the same holes from which they were removed.
-
Loosen clamp nut (A, Fig. 28) which holds upper knife driving arm (B). Access to clamp nut is through top cover. Draw driving arm to the left until upper knife driving lever (C) and connecting rod (D) drop, allowing removal of bearing cap (E). This at bearing point (J, Fig. 27) on crankshaft. Observe same precautions while re-assembling cap as described in Step 7 above.
-
Remove screw (K, Fig. 27) which holds inner right crankshaft bearing. This screw is reached through bottom of bed casting.
-
Loosen two screws (L) in fan collar; remove both halves of cooling fan.
-
Remove screw (M); take off pulley cap (N).
-
Loosen two screws (P); remove pulley (R).
-
Remove three screws (S); take off bearing retaining plate (T); also, spacer collar (U) may be removed at this time.
-
Crankshaft may now be removed:
-
If necessary to replace ball bearing (V), it should be pressed off shaft on an arbor press. In replacing bearing it must be pressed on carefully until it seats against ground thrust washer (W).
-
Carefully observing reverse of the foregoing operations should simplify re-assembly of crankshaft. Checking exploded view drawings for location of various parts and constant testing for binds during re-assembly will also prove helpful.
-
Before re-assembling, thoroughly clean and dry top and bottom covers and gaskets. Before re-assembling bottom cover make sure that spring pressed oil wick which lubricates left crankshaft bearing is inserted in hole in casting and that it contacts shaft. The wick stands vertically on its spring against bottom cover. Coat oil drain plug with a sealing compound before re-assembling to prevent oil leakage.
