Scanned text of contract clauses with partial company name and date signatureIDENTIFICATION OF MACHINES
Each UNION SPECIAL machine is identified by a Style number on a name plate on the machine. Style numbers are classified as standard and special. Standard Style numbers have one or more letters suffixed, but never contain the letter "Z". Example: "Style 39500 QJ". Special Style numbers contain the letter "Z". When only minor changes are made in a standard machine, a "Z" is suffixed to the standard Style number. Example: "Style 39500 QJZ".
Styles of machines similar in construction are grouped under a Class number which differs from the Style number in that it contains no letters. Example: "Class 39500".
APPLICATION OF CATALOG
This catalog applies specifically to the standard Styles of machines as listed herein. It can also be applied with discretion to some Special Styles of machines in Class 39500. References to directions, such as right, left, front, back, etc., are given from the operator's position while seated at the machine. Operating direction of handwheel is away from operator.

SPEED RECOMMENDATION
39500 MARK IV machines have been tested in their complete stitch range at their maximum rated speeds. Varied field conditions, severity and cleanliness of the sewing operation may necessitate operating at a lower speed. When operating from 50-100% machine running cycle and a longer than recommended stitch length, it may be necessary to reduce the machine's speed by 10-15%.
The MARK IV is a precision manufactured and tested sewing machine. To obtain maximum performance, the machine should be operated at 1000 R.P.M. below maximum recommended speed for the first 20 days of field operation. This will minimize readjustment of precision mechanisms.
OILING
CAUTION! Oil was drained from machine when shipped, so reservoir must be filled before beginning to operate. Oil capacity of Class 39500 is eight ounces. A straight mineral oil of a Saybolt viscosity of 90 to 125 seconds at 100^ Fahrenheit should be used.
Machine is filled with oil at spring cap in top cover. Oil level is checked at sight gauge on front of machine. Red bulb on oil level indicator should show between gauge lines when machine is stationary.
Machine is automatically lubricated. No oiling is necessary, other than keeping main reservoir filled. Check oil daily before the morning start; add oil as required.
To maintain maximum recommended speed and serviceability of this equipment when operating continuously, the oil must be changed at least every six months. In no case should oil remain in machine for more than one year.
The drain plug screw is located at back of machine near bottom edge of base. It is a magnetic screw designed to accumulate possible foreign materials which may have entered the crank case. It should be removed and cleaned periodically.
NEEDLES
Each UNION SPECIAL needle has both type and size number. The type number denotes the kind of shank, point, length, groove, finish and other details. The size number, stamped on the needle shank, denotes largest diameter of blade, measured in thousandths of an inch, midway between shank and eye. Collectively, type and size number represent the complete symbol which is given on the label of all needles packaged and sold by Union Special.
Class 39500 machines use a curved blade needle. The standard recommended needle for the Styles covered here is Type 154 GAS. Below is the description and sizes available of the recommended needle.
Type No.
Description and Sizes
154 GAS
Round shank, round point, curved blade, standard length, single groove, struck groove, spotted, chromium plated and is available in sizes 055/022, 065/025, 070/027, 075/029, 080/032, 090/036, 100/040, 110/044, 125/049, 140/054, 150/060.
To have needle orders promptly and accurately filled, an empty package, a sample needle, or the type and size number should be forwarded. Use description on label. A complete order would read: "1000 Needles, Type 154 GAS, Size 110/044".
Selection of the proper needle size is determined by size of thread used. Thread should pass freely through needle eye in order to produce a good stitch formation.
Success in the operation of UNION SPECIAL machines can be secured only by use of needles packaged under our brand name, UnionSpecial®, which is backed by a reputation for producing highest quality needles in materials and workmanship for more than three-quarters of a century.
CHANGING NEEDLE
Release pressure on presser foot by turning presser foot release bushing (AG, Fig. 1, 1A, 1B or 1C) and swing presser arm (U) out of position. Turn handwheel in operating direction until needle is at its lowest point of travel. Using hexagonal socket wrench No. 21388 AU, furnished with machine, loosen needle clamp nut about 1/4 turn. Again turn handwheel until needle is at high position; withdraw needle.
To replace needle, leave needle holder at high position and, with the flat to the left, insert needle in holder until it rests against stop pin. Keeping needle in this position, turn handwheel until holder is again at its low point of travel; then tighten nut. Return presser arm (U) to position; re-lock presser foot release bushing (AG).
THREAD STAND (504 and 505 STITCH)
After thread comes from cones on cone support (A, Fig. 1 or 1B) as applicable, it is brought up through the back hole of thread eyelet (B), then down through the front hole of thread eyelet. The needle and upper looper threads are then threaded through the upper hole of tension thread guide (C) from front to back, and then through the lower hole from back to front. The lower looper thread is threaded through the upper hole back to front, through the middle hole from front to back, and finally through the lower hole from back to front. All three threads then continue between the tension discs (J), through tension post slot (K) in tension post (G) and on through front thread guide (M).

Only parts involved in threading are shown in threading diagrams (Fig. 1, 1A, 1B and 1C). Parts are placed in their relative positions for clarity.
It will simplify the threading of these machines to follow the recommended sequence of threading the lower looper or upper looper first (as applicable) and the needle second when using the 503 stitch (Fig. 1A and 1C). The recommended sequence when using the 504 or 505 stitch (Fig. 1 and 1B) is to thread the lower looper first, upper looper second, and the needle third.
Before beginning to thread, swing cloth plate open, turn handwheel in operating direction until needle (X) is at high position, release pressure on presser foot by turning presser foot release bushing (AG) and swing presser arm (U) out of position.
Be sure threads, as they come from the tension thread guide (C), are between tension discs (J) and in diagonal slots (K) in tension posts (G).
TO THREAD THE LOWER LOOPER (FOR ALL STYLES EXCEPT 39500 TG)
Double end of thread and lead it through the right eyelet of front thread guide (M, Fig. 1, 1A or 1B). Then lead thread through both eyes of lower looper thread eyelet (R, Fig. 1, 1A or 1B) from right to left. NOTE: Thread must pass in front of looper thread pull-off (AF). Lead thread behind fabric guard (S) and through frame looper thread guide (T). Turn handwheel in operating direction until heel of lower looper (V) is all the way to the left, then thread through both eyes from left to right. Left eye of lower looper can be threaded easily if tweezers are in left hand.
TO THREAD UPPER LOOPER (FOR ALL STYLES EXCEPT 39500 QJ, SJ)
Thread upper looper thread through left eyelet of front thread guide (M, Fig. 1, 1B or 1C). Then turn handwheel until point of upper looper (W) is all the way left. Lead thread through auxiliary looper thread eyelet (P) from back to front, then through both eyes of upper looper thread eyelet (N) from left to right. Note: thread must pass in front of looper thread pull-off (AF). After pulling up upper looper thread tube assembly (AA), lead thread under neck of top cover casting and down through thread tube assembly (AA). Pull thread out bottom of tube; push tube down, then insert thread through upper looper eye from front to back.
CAUTION! Be sure upper looper thread is under lower looper thread when passing from tube assembly to upper looper eye.

PRESSER FOOT PRESSURE

text_image
Labeled diagram of a mechanical device with components A, B, C, D marked on top and sidesFig. 2
Sufficient presser foot pressure to feed work uniformly should be maintained. Should it be necessary to increase or decrease amount of pressure on presser foot, loosen lock nut (A, Fig. 2) and turn adjusting screw (B). Adjusting screw has a right hand thread, so tightening increases pressure, loosening decreases pressure. When pressure adjusting screw (B) has been properly set, tighten lock nut (A). With presser foot resting on throat plate, position locking nut (C) so that its under surface is approximately 1/32 to 1/16 inch (.79 to 1.59 mm) from the top surface of adjusting screw (B). Set cap (D) against locking nut (C).
FEED ECCENTRICS
Feed eccentrics used in Style 39500 QJ machines have been selected to produce approximately 5 stitches per inch. It will be noted that the part number of the feed eccentric is No. 39540 B-5. Minor numbers of the part symbol indicate approximately the number of stitches obtainable when using that eccentric. Unless otherwise specified, machine Style 39500 QJ will be shipped with above eccentric. Refer to exploded views in catalog for eccentrics furnished on other Styles of machines.
The following stitch number feed eccentrics are available under No. 39540 B-4, -5, -6, -7, -8, -9, -10, -11, -12, -13, -14, -15, -16, -18, -20, -22, -24, -26, -28, -30, -32, -34, -36, -40. Only one eccentric is supplied with each machine. Additional eccentrics may be ordered separately. To order an eccentric, use No. 39540 B with a minor number suffixed to indicate approximately the number of stitches desired. Example: "39540 B-5".

of the spreader should extend about 5/32 inch (3.97 mm) to the left of the centerline of the needle and should be 31/64 inch (12.30 mm) above the top of the throat
plate (Fig. 10A). If resetting is necessary, do it by moving the spreader holder (A, Fig. 10A).

(.051 mm) .002" CLEARANCEFig. 9A
Now check setting between upper spreader and needle. If needle rubs the back of spreader, pull spreader out of its holder slightly and rotate spreader holder forward a short distance. These same adjustments, in opposite movement, will reduce the clearance between spreader and needle. Reset to lower looper (Fig. 9A).
SETTING THE FEED DOGS
Assemble chaining feed dog (A, Fig. 13) to main feed dog (B). Main feed dog should be levelled with respect to the throat plate by rotating feed tilting adjusting pin (C). This pin raises or lowers the back end of the
feed bar.
The feed dogs should be set level at the time teeth first appear above the throat plate. Screw (D) locks feed tilting adjusting pin in place. With the feed dogs at their highest point of travel, the top of the teeth on the main feed dog should be 3/64 inch (1.19 mm) above the throat plate, on all Styles, except 39500 TY which should rise the depth of a full tooth above the throat plate. Now set chaining feed dog teeth flush with the top of throat plate, for Styles 39500 QJ, QL, QN, QX, RP, RU, SJ, SR and SX. On Style 39500 QV, the chaining feed dog teeth should be set to the same height as the main feed dog teeth.

NOTE: Styles 39500 TG or TY DO NOT have a chaining feed dog.
SETTING THE LOWER KNIFE

text_image
C D A BFig. 13
Replace lower knife holder assembly. Lower knife (A, Fig. 14) should be set with cutting edge flush with throat plate surface. Adjustments are made with hexagonal head screw which holds lower knife. Lower knife is spring pressed against upper knife, so no lateral adjustment is necessary when width of trim is changed.
Lower knife may be secured in any position by tightening screw (B) and locking nut (C) against support bracket. Because
screw (B) also serves as latch pin for the cloth plate latch spring, it should always be locked with nut (C) even when screw is not tightened against lower knife holder.
SETTING THE UPPER KNIFE
Replace upper knife assembly. Clamp upper knife (D, Fig. 14) in position, setting nut (E) to hold clamp (F) in its most clockwise position against upper knife. At the bottom of its stroke, front cutting edge of upper knife should extend not less than 1/64 inch (.40 mm) below cutting edge of lower knife. The chain guard (G) should be set down against the upper knife and slightly back from the cutting edge.
After upper knife has been set for proper width of trim, screw (H) should be tightened to lock upper knife holding block (J) in place. This will simplify resetting when upper knife is replaced.
SETTING THE STITCH LENGTH
Length of stitch is determined by feed eccentric used. Note that the part number of the feed eccentric used on machine Style 39500 QJ is No. 39540 B-5. Refer to exploded views in catalog for eccentric on other Styles of machines.
In assembling the feed eccentric (A, Fig. 15), be sure the hub and oil groove is to the left. Beveled edge of feed eccentric spacer (B) should also be to the left side, so the undercut on the spacer will be over the hub on the feed eccentric. Be careful not to damage shaft or key. Assemble washer (D) and tighten nut (C) securely.

text_image
J H G D A C B E FFig. 14
To change feed eccentrics, remove nut (C), washer (D) and feed eccentric spacer (B). Turn handwheel in operating direction until key slot in eccentric is toward the front. Using hooked eccentric extractor (E), supplied with machine, reach behind eccentric as shown and withdraw eccentric. It may be necessary to move handwheel back and forth slightly during extraction.
SETTING THE PRESSER FOOT

text_image
A E B CFig. 15
Assemble the presser foot to presser arm. With needle in high position, swing presser arm into sewing position and set the presser foot to align needle holes (front and back) and flat on throat plate. The front edge of needle hole in presser foot must be aligned with front edge of needle hole in throat plate. It is also important that the bottom of the presser foot be flat on the throat plate. If necessary, presser foot can be realigned with throat plate slots by shifting the foot lifter lever shaft (H, Fig. 16). To move the shaft, loosen collar screws (B, Fig. 16) and clamp screw (G) and then shift the foot lifter lever shaft to the left or right as required. Retighten collar screws and clamp screw.
The foot lifter lever arm (A, Fig. 16) and the collar (B) secure the shaft. Be sure the presser arm does not bind and rise when presser foot release bushing is unlocked.
Adjust lifter lever stop screw (C) so that presser foot can be raised no higher than upper looper or spreader will permit; then lock

SETTING THE PRESSER FOOT (Continued)
the nut (D). There should be from 1/16 to 1/8 inch (1.59 to 3.17 mm) free motion of foot lifter lever before the presser foot begins to rise. This adjustment should be made with screw (E) and locked with nut (F). Re-assemble the chip guard, fabric guard and cloth plate. To assemble chip guard, turn handwheel until upper knife assembly reaches its highest position.
CLOTH PLATE REMOVAL AND ASSEMBLY
CAUTION: When removing the cloth plate (A, Fig. 17) loosen the cloth plate stud locking screw (B) and lift up cloth plate with the cloth plate stud (C) and cloth plate screw (D), assembled.
In assembly, the cloth plate screw and the cloth plate stud are tightened to the point of removing all play and yet turn in cloth plate. The cloth plate is then assembled to the machine with the flat and "V" slot of the cloth plate stud (C) towards the rear. Stud locking screw (B) is tightened securely which collapses the body of the stud to the screw (D) so that only the cloth plate will turn when opening or closing.

STARTING TO OPERATE
Be sure machine Styles 39500 QN, QV, QX, RP, RU, SR, SX and TY are threaded according to threading diagram Fig. 1. Machine Styles 39500 QJ and SJ are threaded according to threading diagram Fig. 1A. Thread machine Style 39500 QL according to Fig. 1B and machine Style 39500 TG according to Fig. 1C.
With thread tensions light, set looper thread eyelets (N and R, Fig. 1 and 1B) or thread eyelet (R, Fig. 1A) and thread eyelet (N, Fig. 1C) about horizontal and in the middle of their front to back locations. Operate machine slowly, without presser foot in place, to make sure chain forms and moves off the tongue freely. Swing presser foot into position, insert material and sew slowly.
NEEDLE THREAD CONTROL (504 STITCH)
While sewing on material, check needle thread control as follows: Usually all needle thread is drawn on needle down stroke. At top of needle stroke, thread should be just tight enough to feed chain off stitch tongue. Stitch tends to pull down slightly if excessive thread is pulled on the up stroke. With needle at bottom of stroke, position needle thread eyelet (AD, Fig. 1) so that needle thread cam pull-off (AE) just contacts needle thread.
It is desirable to adjust the needle thread eyelet well-forward (toward the operator) to delay slightly, the tightening of the needle thread.
NEEDLE THREAD CONTROL (Styles 39500 QJ, SJ, TG - 503 STITCH)
While sewing on material, check needle thread control as follows: About 75% of needle thread required for the stitch should be drawn on needle downstroke. To increase thread drawn on downstroke, position needle thread eyelet (AD, Fig. 1A and 1C) farther to the rear.
NEEDLE THREAD CONTROL (Style 39500 QL - 505 STITCH)
While sewing on material, check needle thread control as follows: About 60% of needle thread required for the stitch should be drawn on needle downstroke.
To increase thread drawn on downstroke, position needle thread eyelet (AD, Fig. 1B) farther to the rear.
LOWER LOOPER THREAD CONTROL (504 STITCH)
With material under presser foot, set lower looper thread eyelet (R, Fig. 1) back far enough so thread is a little slack when looper thread pull-off (AF) reaches its most rearward position. Looper thread pull-off (AF) is set about 1/32 inch (.79 mm) distance behind needle thread cam pull-off (AE). Frame looper thread guide (T) should be set with its eyelet approximately 1/8 inch (3.17 mm) to the right of lower looper (V) heel eyelet at the time lower looper is at extreme left end of its travel.
While sewing on material, check drawing off of looper thread as follows: A portion of lower looper thread should be drawn through the tension before lower looper thread comes off upper looper. To increase amount of thread drawn through the tension while lower looper thread is on upper looper, move lower looper thread eyelet (R) down, keeping the same amount of pull-off action.
LOWER LOOPER THREAD CONTROL (503 STITCH)
With material under presser foot, set lower looper thread eyelet (R, Fig. 1A) back and down far enough so thread is a little slack when spreader reaches its extreme left position. Lower looper thread eyelet (R) should be about horizontal.
Frame looper thread guide (T) should be set with its eyelet approximately 1/8 inch (3.17 mm) to the right of heel eyelet of looper (V) at the time lower looper is at extreme left end of its travel.
LOWER LOOPER THREAD CONTROL (505 STITCH)
Set lower looper thread eyelet (R, Fig. 1B) about horizontal and all the way forward in its slot.
Frame looper thread guide (T) should be set with its eyelet approximately 1/8 inch (3.17 mm) to the right of lower looper (V) heel eyelet, when lower looper is at the left end of its stroke.
UPPER LOOPER THREAD CONTROL (504 STITCH)
Before proceeding to adjust upper looper thread eyelet (N, Fig. 1) balance all three tensions to give a normal appearing stitch. Moderate change in these tensions will not markedly affect the purl.
During needle downstroke, forward stroke of looper thread pull-off (AF) will draw upper looper thread through the tension. When normal amount of looper thread is drawn, upper looper thread will have almost all slack taken up as looper thread pull-off reaches its most rearward position.
UPPER LOOPER THREAD CONTROL (503 STITCH - Style 39500 TG)
With material under presser foot, set upper looper thread eyelet (N, Fig. 1C) back and down far enough so thread is a little slack when lower spreader reaches its extreme left position. Looper thread eyelet (N) should be about horizontal.
UPPER LOOPER THREAD CONTROL (505 STITCH)
With material under presser foot, set upper looper thread eyelet (N, Fig. 1B) to rest on top of lower looper thread eyelet (R), and back far enough so upper looper thread is a little slack when upper looper reaches the left end of its stroke.
POSITIONING THE PURL (504 STITCH)
To move the purl more under the edge, both looper thread eyelets (N and R, Fig. 1) should be raised keeping the same amount of pull-off. Usually it is better to have slightly more pull-off on upper thread than on lower thread.
If it becomes necessary to move looper thread pull-off (AF), be sure to take up all end play in needle drive shaft before tightening. If upper looper is located so that it is higher over throat plate than recommended in Fig. 10, the purl will tend to form near top edge. If upper looper is too low, the purl will form nearer bottom edge.
POSITIONING THE SQUARE EDGE (505 STITCH)
Position of lower looper thread at the edge is located by balancing needle and upper looper thread tensions.
To reduce amount of lower looper thread in the stitch, or close the edge more, increase lower looper thread tension.
THREAD TENSIONS
The needle thread tension required is a function of needle thread and material being sewn. In general, lower looper thread tension should be set as high as possible without causing needle thread to be pulled down. Upper looper thread tension should be increased as long as the elasticity of the chain increases, or until the purl is pulled too far over the top.
USE GENUINE NEEDLES AND REPAIR PARTS
Success in the operation of these machines can be secured only with genuine UNION SPECIAL Needles and Repair Parts as furnished by the Union Special Corporation, its subsidiaries and authorized distributors. They are designed according to the most approved scientific principles, and are made with utmost precision. Maximum efficiency and durability are assured.
Genuine needles are packaged with labels marked Union Special®. Genuine repair parts are stamped with the Union Special trademark, U S Emblem. Each trademark is your guarantee of the highest quality in materials and workmanship.
TORQUE REQUIREMENTS
Torque (measured in inch-pounds) is a rotating force (in pounds) applied through a distance by a lever (in inches or feet). This is accomplished by a wrench, screw driver, etc. Many of these devices are available, which when set at the proper amount of torque will tighten the part to the correct amount and no tighter.
All straps and eccentrics should be tightened to 19-21 inch-pounds (22-24 cm/kg) unless otherwise noted. All other nuts, bolts, screws, etc., should be tightened by hand as tightly as possible, unless otherwise noted.
The screws requiring a specific torque, will be indicated on the picture plates.

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. 18) and washer (B), and, with the aid of the eccentric extractor, slip off the eccentrics (C).
- Remove key (D).
- Remove three counterweights (E). Identify these counterweights so that they will be re-assembled in the proper places.
- Remove screw (F) which holds crankshaft split bearing. This screw is reached through bottom of bed casting.
TO REMOVE CRANKSHAFT (Continued)
-
Remove caps of bearings on crankshaft at points G, Hand J. When re-assembling bearing caps make sure they are in their original position. Trade marks are stamped on both halves of the caps and both trade marks should be on the same side of the bearings. Also, screws should be reassembled in the same holes from which they were removed.
-
Loosen clamp nut (A, Fig. 19) which holds upper knife driving arm (B). Access to clamp nut is through top cover. Draw driving arm to the left until

text_image
Technical diagram of a mechanical assembly with labeled components A, B, C, D, and EFig. 19
upper knife driving lever (C) and connecting rod (D) drop, allowing removal of bearing cap (E). This is at bearing point (K, Fig. 18) on crankshaft. Observe same precautions when re-assembling cap as described in 7 above.
-
Remove screw (L, Fig. 18) which holds inner right crankshaft bearing. This screw is reached through bottom of bed casting.
-
Loosen two screws (M) in fan collar; remove both halves of cooling fan.
-
Remove screw (N); take off pulley cap (P).
-
Loosen two screws (R); remove pulley (S).
-
Remove three screws (T); take off bearing retaining plate (U); also, spacer collars (V) and (W) may be removed at this time.
-
Crankshaft may now be removed.
-
If necessary to replace ball bearing (X), 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 (Y).
-
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. No. 1 Crane Lead Seal is recommended.
ORDERING REPAIR PARTS
ILLUSTRATIONS
This catalog has been arranged to simplify ordering repair parts. Exploded views of various sections of the mechanism are shown so that the parts may be seen in their actual position in the machine. On the page opposite the illustration will be found a listing of the parts with their part numbers, description and the number of pieces required in the particular view being shown.
Numbers in the first column are reference numbers only, and merely indicate the position of that part in the illustration. Reference number should never be used in ordering parts. Always use the part number listed in the second column.
Component parts of sub-assemblies which can be furnished for repairs are indicated by indenting their descriptions under the description of the main sub-assembly. Example:

Union Special Wants to Help You Cut Sewing Machine Maintenance Costs
Union Special is offering two practical systems to help pinpoint and reduce your sewing machine maintenance costs: a record keeping system to help spot machines requiring abnormally high maintenance, and a parts inventory system to speed routine repairs.
Machine Maintenance Records
Repair-prone machines or inexperienced competent operators can eat up your maintenance dollars in short order. To help spot these problems, Union Special suggests two variations of a simple maintenance record keeping system using cards provided by Union Special.
The first system utilizes a "Machine Maintenance Record" card (Form 237) for each sewing machine in a plant. When a repair is required, the card is pulled from the file and the repair date, parts used, and their cost are entered in the spaces provided and the card is refiled.

MACHINE MAINTENANCE RECORD MAKES NAME STYLE TYPE NEEDLE SERIAL NO. DATE PUSH. DATE SYMBOL PART USED COST DATE SYMBOL PART USED COST FORM 237- Machine Maintenance Record cardThe second system is normally used when more detailed information on repair costs is desired. Two record cards are used: a "Repair Request Card" (Form 234), and a "Machine Repair Record" (Form 233). When a machine requires service, the forelady or foreman fills out the top of a "Repair Request Card" and gives it to a mechanic. He fills in the time the repair work is started, the parts used and their cost,
and the completion time. This data is then transferred to the permanent "Machine Repair Record" kept in the office.
Whichever system is used, management now has an invaluable tool to reduce needless maintenance costs.
Repair Part Inventories
While record keeping tells management which machines require abnormally high maintenance, it does little to help reduce the downtime caused by routine repairs. To alleviate this situation, Union Special recommends that manufacturers establish a formal parts inventory system for each type of sewing machine they operate.
Excessive machine downtime and wasted hours by mechanics can be eliminated with an orderly in-plant inventory of the most commonly needed parts. There is no longer a need to cannibalize other machines for spare parts. Long waits for deliveries are avoided and machine downtime is kept to a minimum. The cost of a parts inventory is small when the overall savings are considered.
