(4) Cautions in operation
1) Be sure to drain oil in the oil tank and attach the air vent cap (red rubber cap) supplied with the machine to the air
vent (golden bushing) located on the side face of the machine bed when transporting the sewing machine.
2) In the case where placing A-SS or A-SU, A-SR type machine on a stand or the like before setting the machine to the
machine table, to protect the oil tank from damage, take car if there is any protruding object under the stand or the like.
3) Be sure to securely set the connector of the safety switch to the control box to prevent accidents at the time of maintenance.
4) Oil is kept in the gear box for lubrication. It is not necessary to replace the oil. Do not remove the gear box cover
except when it is necessary.
* When the box cover has been removed, it is necessary to replace the packing.
5) Be sure to operate the sewing machine with the bobbin case removed when making the sewing machine run idle.
If the bobbin thread is in the bobbin case, the thread protrudes from the bobbin case and is entangled in the hook
race or the hook shaft. As a result, the trouble will be caused.

Zigzag timing can be changed.
Needle sway can be prevented by delaying timing when sewing heavy-weight materials or the like.

1. Fast : Standard setting

2. Slow : Timing is delayed by approximately 30fl in terms of the standard.

However, to delay timing, conditions below are necessary.


1. When the number of rotation is set to less than 4,000 rpm with the function setting No. 96, Max.
number of rotation setting.
2. When the travelling distance of 1 stitch is less than 4 mm.
In case of more than 4 mm, needle may travel while it is stuck on the cloth.
In case the distance is more than 4 mm and zigzag motion is performed, do not set this function.

* 3 : Change of feed timing (LZ-2290A-SR only)


When adjusting the heigt of feed dog or hook driving shaft sprocket timing, feed dog is fed while needle
is stuck on the cloth according to the feed pitch amount. As a result, needle bend will be caused.
In this case, perform the adjustment of the phase of feed timing.
Setting range : -50 º to + 50 º in terms of the standard timing

7 : Alternate changeover of stitch base line unit between 0.1 mm and 0.2 mm
The unit of change of stitch base line position can be changed over to 0.1 mm unit or 0.2 mm unit.

1. 0.1 mm unit : Standard setting

2. 0.2 mm unit : Panel setting is 0.1 mm unit, but actually the position travels every 0.2 mm.

(3) Matters that demand special attention regarding the operation panel, IP-100

1) Kind of IP-100
For the operation panel, IP-100, there are several kinds of types in accordance with the specifications.
1 The type which can be used for LZ-2290A is TYPE-A only.
The product of TYPE A0A or TYPE A0B which is indicated on the type name plate seal in the rear of the
panel case can be used.
Both are compatible in the state of the complete set of the panel. However, when replacing the printed circuit
board only, use the printed circuit board after function Rev03 and pattern Rev F/R2 since there are the
change of the structure components.
In addition, it is necessary to change and set jumper wire W1 (located on the side of RVR1 variable resistor)
of the printed circuit board according to the type.
W1 W1
Type name plate seal Setting of W1 1 1
2 2
TYPE A0A 1-2 pin setting (upper side)
3 3
TYPE A0B 2-3 pin setting (lower side)
TYPE A0A TYPE A0B
Set W1 by changing the jumper post.
(Caution) When setting is wrong, LCD screen display is not properly performed.
2 The type which is possible to use for LZ-2290A-SR is TYPE-D only. Seal indication on the rear face of the
panel case is TYPE-D0A.

2) Matters that demand special attention when disassembling the operation panel
Operation panel, IP-100 is constructed with precision components.
Leave the action such as disassembling the panel case or the like to our service department since injury by
electric shock or failure of panel will be caused.
If the force more than expected is applied when disassembling the panel case, it may be damaged since it
is made of the plastic molding.
Especially when performing disassembling (opening/closing) the front panel and the rear panel in the state
that the smart media cover attached to the rear case is closed, the small-sized switch mounted on the inside
of the printed circuit board interferes with the smart media cover and may be damaged. So, be careful.
It is necessary to assemble all screws used in the operation panel with tightening torque of 0.56Ncm. (Excluding
screws to fix it on the machine head and to fix the earth wire.)

3) Prohibition of the change of DIP switch setting


Do not perform the changeover of DIP switches since the guarantee of control program and stored data
cannot be performed.
It is not necessary to operate these switches since they are all changeover switches for the production by
the manufacturers.
(Caution) The 4-string DIP switches are not exposed unless the operation panel case is disassembled.
