1. Features

The pneumatic type (left/right alternating) two-stage clamp separates the pressing operation into the left and right sides. As each side can be operated with individual foot switches, this is suitable for stitching two parts together. Usage methods can be changed to suit the purpose and make setup of the stitching material more efficient. These methods include setting the left/right clamp operation order or canceling the operation order and pressing with the side for which the foot switch is ON.

4.1 Installing the clamp drive mechanism

(1) Remove the four screws on the Y axis movement race side fixing the clamp base (Fig.No.112) and the two screws on the axis support side, and remove the magnetic clamp mechanism mounted as a standard on the sewing machine.
(2) Using the screws removed above, install this pneumatic clamp mechanism following the above step in reverse. Make sure that the clamp is not inclined at this time.
(3) If there is no need to reinstall the magnetic clamp mounted as a standard on the sewing machine after changing to the pneumatic type clamp, it is recommended to remove the drive mechanism parts in the sewing machine head.
To remove these parts, refer to the part catalog P-341 for the PLK-G1010 sewing machine unit, and remove the parts including Fig.No.H130 pin E, and Fig.No.H120 presser plate shown in the catalog. Use the parts Fig.No.308, 309, and 310 enclosed with this attachment as a cover.

4.2 Installing the pneumatic pressure control related parts

(1) The regulator and solenoid valve assembly configured of Fig.No.201, etc., are fixed to the bottom of the sewing machine table with the enclosed Fig.No.305 wood screws (two screws).
(2) Align the piping symbols of the Fig.No.209, 210, 211 and 212 air tubes ( 4) with ports A to D on the pneumatic two stage clamp's Fig.No.109 air cylinder, and insert the tubes.
(3) Pass the air tubes through the notched section on the side of the sewing machine unit's motor cover, and lead the tubes to the bottom of the table from the square hole on the table.
(4) Align the air tubes ( 6) led out above with the ports A to D of the solenoid valve installed in step (1), and insert the tubes.
(5) Bind the air tubes appropriately with the enclosed Fig.No.301 Cable ties.

4.3 Connecting the switches and cables

(1) Remove the cover for the connector panel on the back of the sewing machine.
(2) Disconnect the cable connected to CON13 (FU) on the solenoid PCB. This cable is not used after this attachment is mounted. Fix it where it will not obstruct the other electric parts.
(3) Lead out the Fig.No.206 and 207 cables connected to the solenoid valve from the slot on the back of the sewing machine table, pass through the cord bushing on the connector panel, and lead in to the solenoid PCB side.
(4) Insert the Fig.No.206 cable connector to CON13 (FU) on the PCB from where the cable was disconnected above.
(5) Insert the Fig.No.207 cable connector to CON15 (OP1) on the PCB.
(6) Connect the Fig.No.314 foot switch (1-pedal) cable to the connector (12P) on the head of the sewing machine. The green lead wire is the grounding wire. Connect this wire to the sewing machine bed.
(7) This completes the connection of the wiring. Check the connection with the following table, and then securely install the cover removed from the connector panel.

4.4 Installing the system software

CAUTION

If the sewing machine is operated with the magnetic clamp settings, faults could occur. Always install the system software for the pneumatic type clamp.

(1) Installing the System Software

① While holding down the [F] key on the front panel of the control box, turn the machine power ON. (Keep pushing [F] key until red LED on the front panel is turned on.)
② [Model and language set function] screen is displayed.

③ Press the |c|. Select the English on the language set function screen then, press

Input/output setting	O4	66H	33	Set this when changing from the magnetic clamp to the pneumatic clamp.
Input/output setting	O5	66H	33	Set this when changing from the magnetic clamp to the pneumatic clamp.

4.5 Setting the clamp priority order

As the default, the left/right work clamp is set to operate randomly when the foot switch is turned ON. To use this attachment so that the left clamp is lowered and then the right clamp is lowered, change the settings with the following procedures after installing the system software.

When this method is set, the operation will start with the left clamp, so turn the left clamp foot switch (2-pedal) [black] side ON. If the right clamp foot switch (1-pedal) is turned ON, neither the left nor right clamp will operate.

(1) Press the MENU on the standard screen to open the MENU mode.
(2) Press the Program in the menu icon. The Program Mode [Mode Selection] screen is displayed.
(3) Press the Clamp

(4) The program Mode [Set Selection] is displayed.

(5) Set the clamp priority order. Press the WHY [Priority of clamp mode].

(6) Change the priority order invalid display ☐ on the screen to valid ☐, and the press the ↕.

(7) Press the × on the screen.

(8) Then screen return to the [Mode Selection]. Press the

This completes the setting of the [clamp priority order].

5. Operation

5.1 Confirming operation

(1) Turn the sewing machine power switch ON.
(2) Confirm that the left and right work clamps lower when the foot switch (2-pedal) [Black] side and the expanded foot switch (1-pedal) are turned ON, and rise when the switches are turned ON again.
(3) Lower the left and right work clamps, and press start.
on the operation panel. Return to home will
(4) Next, check that the positional relation of the clamp and needle hole center is at the scale shown in the drawing. If the positions are deviated, refer to the PLK-G1010 Sewing Machine Head version instruction manual and adjust the home.
