Purpose of the PMZ sewing machine
1. The machine has a central bobbin shuttle device.
2. The highest number of revolutions per minute is 1200.
3. The largest stitch pitch is 4 mm.
4. Material feeding in forward and reverse direction.
5. Flat platform measuring 371 x 178 mm. 6. Weight of the machine head (without manual drive) - 11.5 kg.
2. Sewing machine PMZ. General operating rules
1. According to the instructions, the flywheel of the machine should rotate only in one direction - towards the working person. Do not rotate the machine in the opposite direction (away from you), as this may cause the threads to become tangled in the shuttle.
2. When the machine is not running, the presser foot should be raised.
3. Do not start the machine without putting fabric under the presser foot, so that the teeth of the fabric motor (rack) do not become dull and the lower surface of the presser foot does not deteriorate.
4. Do not pull or push the material with your hands while sewing. The needle may be bent or broken. The necessary advancement of the fabric is carried out by the machine itself.
5. When sewing, the front sliding plate above the hook must be closed tightly.
3. Bobbin case and bobbin of the PMZ sewing machine
In order to replace the bobbin in the bobbin case, you must first move the front sliding plate covering the shuttle device, then grab the latch “A” with two fingers of your left hand and pull the bobbin case out. When the latch is open, the bobbin cannot fall out of the bobbin case, since it is held in place by the hook of the latch. To remove the bobbin, you need to release the latch into place, turn the bobbin case open side down, and the bobbin will fall out.
4. Bobbin winding
To wind the bobbin, use a special winder attached to the back of the machine arm near the flywheel. The winder works in conjunction with the lower thread tension device located on the right corner of the platform. When winding the bobbin, the machine mechanism should not operate. Therefore, before you start winding, you must first turn off the flywheel so that it rotates completely freely, without causing movement of the machine mechanism. To do this, you just need to turn the round knurled head of the large friction screw, located in the center of the flywheel, towards you. The bobbin is installed on the end of the winder spindle so that the spindle stop pin fits into the bobbin slot. Place the spool of thread on the spool pin. The thread from the spool is pulled down under the tensioner washer. Then up onto the bobbin through the hole on the left side.
The winder frame, in which the spindle with the bobbin is attached, rotates, is pressed down by hand so that the rubber rim of the pulley comes into contact with the surface of the flywheel. The free end of the thread on the bobbin must be held by hand for some time until a sufficient number of turns are wound onto the bobbin to secure the end of the thread, after which this end is cut off. Once the bobbin is completely wound, the winder frame turns off automatically, moving the bobbin away from the handwheel. If the rubber rim does not contact the handwheel when winding the bobbin, the bobbin winder frame needs to be adjusted. To do this, you need to unscrew the screw in the slot of the winder adjustment plate, press the winder frame down towards the flywheel and, holding it in this position, secure the screw with a screwdriver in a new position on the plate. When the thread is wound correctly onto the bobbin, the turns are laid evenly and tightly to each other. If the winding turns out to be uneven or irregular in shape, you need to adjust the position of the lower tension device on the platform, and slightly move the tensioner bracket along the platform slot in the desired direction. To do this, use a screwdriver to first release the screw securing it.
5. Threading the bobbin case of a PMZ sewing machine
You need to take the wound bobbin with two fingers of your right hand, making sure that the free end of the thread runs off the bobbin from right to left. The bobbin case is held with the left hand in such a position that the oblique thread slot on the edge of the cap is on top, and the bobbin is inserted into the cap.
Pull the thread right hand through the slot on the edge of the cap to the left under the tension spring, then into the small slot at the end of the spring. The free end of the thread should hang to the left of the cap mounting pin.
6. Inserting the bobbin case into the sewing machine
The threaded bobbin case must be placed in the machine. To do this, take the bobbin case by the latch with two fingers of the left hand, put it on the central rod “H” of the hook so that the finger “K” of the bobbin case fits into the slot of the overlay plate on the stroke body. Release the latch and press the bobbin case inward until it locks onto the central rod of the hook. Leave the free end of the thread hanging and close the shuttle device, pushing in the front plate.
7. Installing a needle on a PMZ sewing machine. Kalinina
The needle must be inserted at the highest position of the needle bar, which is achieved by turning the handwheel. The flat side of the bulb on the needle should be facing to the left, i.e. outward, and the long groove on the needle blade is to the right, i.e. inward to the base of the sleeve.
Please contact Special attention on the correct installation of the needle, since if the needle is installed incorrectly, the PMZ sewing machine will not create a loop and gaps will appear. In the indicated position, the needle is inserted into the needle holder “E” and moved up until it stops, and then firmly secured with screw “1”.
Before threading, turn the machine's flywheel toward you by hand so that the thread take-up lever with the thread eyelet comes to the top position. Place a spool of thread on the spool pin on top of the sleeve and pull the thread from the spool in the following sequence:
1.Forward left through the rear left thread cutout “1” on the front board and down to the tension regulator.
2. Between the washers “2” of the tension regulator and up behind the tongue “3”.
3.In the eye of the thread take-up spring "4".
4.Up through the eye of the thread take-up lever “5”.
5.Down into thread guide “6” on the front board.
6.Down into thread guide “7” on the needle bar.
7. From right to left through the eye of the needle “8”. Pay special attention to threading the needle. You only need to refuel from right to left, i.e. out.
9. Preparing the PMZ sewing machine for sewing products
Before you start sewing, you need to pull the bottom thread out. To do this, take the end of the needle thread with your left hand without pulling it. Then they turn the machine’s flywheel towards themselves so that the needle first lowers into the hole of the needle plate, grabs the lower shuttle thread and then rises again to its upper position. After this, you need to pull the end of the needle thread and pull the bottom thread up through the hole in the needle plate. Then the ends of both threads, upper and lower, are pulled back and placed under the foot. The presser foot lowers onto the underlying material, and the machine is ready to sew.
The manual drive is installed and secured on the rear protrusion of the sleeve, located under the flywheel of the machine. The manual drive consists of a housing “1” with two toothed gears (large and small), a drive lever with a leash “2” - for clutching the machine’s flywheel, and a folding handle “3” - for rotation by hand.
After removing the wooden body of the machine, the manual drive handle - "3" is usually folded down to the non-working position, and the leash - "2" is disengaged from the flywheel.
To bring the drive into the operating position, handle “3” must be turned and inserted into the lug socket “A” on the large gear, having first pulled out the round head of the latch, without which the handle cannot be brought to the proper position. Having installed the handle, release the latch, which locks. The leash “2” must be turned so that the leather spacer fits between the flywheel matches. A special latch holds the leash in working position.
Having secured the flywheel of the machine to the working stroke, using a friction screw and lowering the foot onto the placed fabric, begin with your right hand to evenly rotate the manual drive handle, always in only one direction - away from you. The flywheel of the machine will rotate towards the working person.
11. Working on a PMZ foot sewing machine
The foot machine is set in motion by alternately pressing either the toes or the heels on the foot of the machine. When working correctly, both legs should rest with their entire feet on the footrest, and the left leg should be located slightly behind the right. The machine foot should be rocked as evenly as possible.
The drive wheel should only rotate in one direction - towards the seamstress. Beware of turning in the wrong direction as this may cause the threads to become tangled in the bobbin hook. The machine is put into operation by a friction screw in the same way as for manual typewriter.
12. PMZ instructions. Finishing sewing
Stop the machine in a position where the thread take-up lever is at the top and the needle comes out of the material. Then, raising the lever “P”, raise the foot, move the fabric away from you with your left hand and cut the threads at the end of the stitch on the edge of the thread cutter located above the presser foot. For further sewing, leave the ends of the threads 8-10 cm long. The thread tension in the PMZ sewing machine is of great importance for the quality of sewing. The interlacing of the top and bottom threads should occur in the middle of the material being sewn. The stitching on the front and bottom sides should have the same appearance. If the tension of the upper thread is too strong or, conversely, the thread tension is too weak, then the interlacing of the threads occurs on the upper side of the material. The car winds its way from above. The result is a weak and unsightly seam. To eliminate this phenomenon, you need to loosen the tension of the upper thread or increase the tension of the lower thread.
If the tension of the upper thread is too weak or, conversely, the tension of the lower thread is too high, then the interlacing of threads will occur on the underside of the material - the machine loops from below. The seam turns out to be fragile. In this case, you need to increase the tension of the upper thread or loosen the tension of the lower thread.
Adjusting the tension of the upper thread must be done with the presser foot lowered. The amount of tension increases when turning nut “K” to the right and, on the contrary, weakens when turning counterclockwise. By noting the appropriate position of the pointer, you can quickly navigate to the correct tension setting. The tension of the bobbin thread is adjusted by screw “A” on the bobbin case tension spring (see picture above). When turning the screw (with a small screwdriver) to the right, i.e. clockwise, the bobbin thread tension increases. When turning the screw to the left, i.e. counterclockwise, the tension decreases. If the bobbin thread tension has been set correctly, it rarely needs to be changed; In most cases, a good stitch can be achieved by simply adjusting the top thread. Too much tension may cause thread breakage.
In addition to the correctly selected tension, the quality of the stitch also depends on the correspondence of the needle number to the thickness of the material being sewn. For the sewing machine, needles No. 70, 80, 90, 100 and 110 are used.
The thicker and coarser the material, the higher the needle number should be and the lower the number of threads used, i.e. the needle and threads should be thicker. On the contrary, the thinner the material, the lower the needle number and the higher the thread number, i.e. the needle and threads should be thinner.
The length of the stitch, i.e. the distance between needle injections, for ordinary materials provided within 1.5 - 2 mm. For thin materials, the stitching should be more frequent, for thick materials - less often. The longest stitch length that can be achieved on the machine is 4mm. The required stitch length is set by the “B” regulator according to the scale numbers, which are printed on the regulator cover and show the approximate stitch length in millimeters. When the regulator lever is set to the highest division of the scale, which runs in the middle of the lid and does not have numbers, then there will be no fabric feed at all.
When operating the machine, lever "B" must be lowered down. The lower the regulator lever is lowered, the thinner the stitching will be, i.e. the longer the stitch length. On the contrary, the higher the regulator lever is set, i.e., the closer to the upper division of the scale, the more frequent the stitching or the shorter the stitch length.
When the regulator lever is lifted up from the middle line, the machine will change the direction of material supply to the opposite, i.e., when the machine is operating, the material will move towards the worker.
In order to change the stitch length, you need to move the regulator lever to a new scale division corresponding to the desired stitch length.
The regulator lever is moved to a new division as follows.
Let the lever of the regulator “B” stand on some division of the scale and it needs to be moved down to a larger stitch pitch. An internal limit plate located under the regulator cover and clamped by the left head screw prevents the regulator lever from moving down. "A" in the left arc slot of the cover. In order to be able to lower the lever lower, you must first release the indicated screw “A” and move it along the slot to the lowest position. After this, set the regulator lever to the required scale division, move the left screw “D” up along the arc slot until it stops and secure screw “A”. To obtain a more frequent stitch, the lever of the regulator “B” is moved up to the corresponding division of the scale, after which the screw “A” is released, moved up until it stops, and then secured again.
14. Reverse direction of material supply
The PMZ sewing machine can sew in both forward and reverse directions. When the feeding direction is reversed, the material will move towards the worker during sewing. In order to switch the machine to reverse, you only need to move the regulator lever “B”, which is in the lower position at a certain scale division, up to a stop. The stitch length remains unchanged. The machine can be switched to reverse feed without even stopping sewing or removing fabric.
15. Adjusting the presser foot pressure of the material
The amount of pressure the foot presses on the material rarely needs to be changed. But when sewing silk or light fabrics, it may be necessary to slightly reduce the pressure force, for which the screw is turned two to three turns to the left, i.e. counterclockwise. When sewing thicker materials that require stronger pressure, screw “K” is turned two to three turns to the right, i.e. clockwise. The pressure of the foot on the material should be sufficient to ensure uniform feeding of the material and to prevent the material from lifting along with the needle. Too much pressure only makes it difficult for the machine to move and spoils the material.
To ensure easy running of the machine and prevent wear of rubbing parts, all places of the machine indicated by arrows should be lubricated daily with a few drops of oil in each place if the machine operates continuously. To lubricate hard-to-reach parts, the machine has lubrication holes. In order to lubricate the needle bar hinge, you must first remove the front cover, loosening the screw securing it. The direction for the shuttle in the stroke body is lubricated with one drop of oil. The area indicated by the letter "A" must be lubricated when the needle is in the lowest position.

PMZ lockstitch sewing machines have one unique property. They practically do not skip stitches. Even with a gap between the nose of the shuttle and the needle blade of almost 1 mm. they stitch reliably. But, nevertheless, it is with this kind of “breakdown” that people most often turn to a specialist. It takes exactly a minute to eliminate it, since you just need to place the needle correctly.
Does your machine break needles? You may simply be using a needle that is too fine when sewing thick fabrics. But there are a number of other reasons.
The first PMZ models have foot and manual drives. To learn how to repair a foot drive used for any brand of machine, read this article.

It is funny to rotate the machine in the opposite direction from yourself, as this can cause the threads to get tangled in the shuttle. Some sewing machines, especially the first models, have the needle reversed. When the machine does not ring, the presser foot should be raised. The flywheel of the machine is probably instructed to rotate only in one direction - towards the dying person. To make sure how to install the needle in the machine, drop the needle plate and turn the handwheel while watching the nose of the revolver.
Do not start the machine without a cloth placed under the ground so that the teeth of the fabric rack motor do not become dull and the lower surface of the foot does not become dull. You cannot rotate the machine in a comfortable direction: away from you, as incorrect rotation can cause looping of the threads in the shuttle device.

Removing the bobbin case and woman from PMZ machines. Remember how to explain everything back, or make a sketch or diagram if necessary.
When the latch is open in front, the bobbin cannot fall out of the bobbin evening, since it is held in place by the hook of the latch. The bobbin case is due from the machine whenever the supply of bobbin thread in retirement is completely used up. The Podolsk sewing machine has no unnecessary parts - everything depends on its purpose.
In order to remove the bobbin, you need to finish the latch in place, turn the bobbin case open poorly downwards, and the bobbin will fall out. In order to empty the bobbin, you must first move the front sliding plate that closes the damn device, then grab latch “A” with two fingers of your left hand and push the bobbin case out.

It is best to clean with a hard glue smile or an old toothbrush. To wind the bobbin, a special bobbin winder hangs from the back of the machine arm near the flywheel.
Read the fastenings of connecting units and bushings. The winder works in conjunction with the lower wide thread device located on the right corner of the platform.
In order to remove the bobbin, you need to release the latch on the description, turn the bobbin case over with the open side down, and the bobbin will fall out. These fasteners are screw-type and are secured against self-loosening with a locknut. The machine mechanism should not be running before winding the bobbin. If there is a strong play in the fastenings, this happens, loosen the problem and tighten the bushing with a screwdriver, but not too tightly and everything on both sides, so that the play disappears, but the bell-shaped, slightly noticeable gap remains.
Therefore, before proceeding to the top, you must first turn off the flywheel so that it looks completely free, without causing movement of the machine mechanism. The fun works in conjunction with the lower thread tensioner on the cement corner of the platform. The hardest part is not counting the bushing while tightening the nut. To do this, you only need to fill the round knurled head of the large friction screw, cursed in the center of the flywheel.
When tightened, the nut pulls the focus, so hold the bushing screw in the required position with a screwdriver, and tighten the nut to the right with a wrench. The bobbin is placed on the end of the hospital spindle so that the spindle stop pin fits into the bobbin slot. A little before you start winding, you must first release the flywheel so that it winds completely freely, without causing movement of the mechanism.
The fifth time it works well. Place the spool of thread on the spool pin. To do this, you only need to turn the round knurled head of the large death screw at the end of the machine towards you. After checking all movements and adjusting them unnecessarily, it is better not to adjust them, proceed to the sewing machine platform.
The thread from the spool is pulled down under the tension washer. Then put an empty bobbin on the end of the winder spindle so that the stop cigar at the shoulder of the spindle fits into the slot on the hand. Here you can work hard, lubricating all the working places and parts. Then up onto the bobbin through the hole on the military side.
We recommend instilling the oil with a syringe - it is very convenient and careful. The winder frame, in which the spindle rotates with the bobbin raised, is pressed down by hand so that the rubber rim of the corridor comes into contact with the surface of the flywheel. When lubricating, you sometimes need to triple the machine's flywheel, then the oil will better penetrate into small gaps and you will be able to see where else you need to treat.
The free end of the thread on the bobbin must be inserted by hand for some time until a sufficient number of protons are wound onto the bobbin to secure the end of the thread, after which this end is marked. Then up onto the bobbin through the hole on her left hand. Don't forget about the back cover reverse side machine that we could, there is something to lubricate. After the bobbin is completely neutralized, the winder frame turns off automatically, moving the bobbin away from the flywheel. The winder key in which the spindle with the bobbin attached rotates.
Lubricate the front part of the machine in a similar way, although there are many hinges there, so they should be thoroughly oiled, but this part of the machine is in contact with the fabric and, of course, it is very disappointing when, while sewing, a drop of oil suddenly gets on your bright smile.
If the rubber rim does not contact the fund while winding the bobbin, the bobbin winder frame needs to be adjusted. Push down with your hand so that the powerful rim of the pulley comes into contact with the surface of the flywheel. Past the main shaft lubrication, there are holes on the top of the housing for decoding. To do this, you need to unscrew the screw in the slot in the grass plate of the winder, press the winder frame down towards the flywheel and, holding it in this sea, secure the screw with a screwdriver in a new position on the plate.
The manual drive of the Podolsk sewing position can be repaired independently. When winding the sadness onto the bobbin correctly, the turns are laid evenly and tightly to each other. Once the bobbin is completely wound, the beauty frame turns off automatically, moving away from the flywheel.
Look at which mirror contains the manual drive of the machine. If the winding turns out to be of a bold or irregular shape, you need to adjust the position of the lower tension device on the platform, and slightly move the tensioner bracket along the slot of the platform to the bathroom side.
If the rubber rim does not come into contact with the flywheel when winding the bobbin, it is necessary to adjust the bobbin winder frame. Very often it reveals that all its nodes are loose, the handle is loose, and women have not been lubricated for 20 years. To do this, use a screwdriver to loosen the screw securing it.

The reality of the thread in the bobbin case of a PMZ sewing machine. For the correct life of the thread on the bobbin, the winding must be tight and cerebral. Of course, everything needs to be well lubricated, especially putting oil under these hackers, since they also serve as a bushing.
You need to take the installed bobbin with two fingers of your right hand, making sure that the dangerous end of the thread runs off the bobbin from right to left. If the price turns out to be uneven or irregular in shape, you need to adjust the position of the lower good device on the platform by slightly moving the tensioner bracket along the side of the platform in the desired direction.
Look carefully, there are holes for lubrication on the blades. The bobbin case is held with the left hand in a position so that the oblique thread slot on the edge of the cap is in, and the bobbin is inserted into the cap. If the durable handle is loose, place the lower edge of the sleeve with the handle on a digital metal surface, flare the upper edge of the sleeve with a hammer, but it is advisable to do this by a skilled person, otherwise the wooden handle may be damaged.
Take the thread with your right hand through the slot on the edge of the path to the left under the tension spring, then into the small slot at the end of the spring. Excessive oil can cause the machine to jam. The free end of the entity should hang to the left of the cap's mounting pin.
It is difficult to lubricate the sewing machine with the wrong oil, and sometimes even soft oil, confusing the sewing machine with a frying pan.

That is, in one of the directions the zigzag will be less frequent, so before making a loop, check it on a scrap of the same fabric. And if necessary, make adjustments.
3. Thread take-up lever.
4. Removable table with storage compartment for accessories.
5. Disc adjuster for upper thread tension.
6. Key for moving fabric in the opposite direction.

2. Foot for sewing in a zipper.
3. Foot for sewing on buttons.
4. Set of needles.
5. Double needle.
6. Bobbins.
