Members Jordanball33 Posted March 12, 2017 Members Report Posted March 12, 2017 Can anyone post pictures of how your speed reducer is installed under your table. There isn't much room and wanted to get some ideas about the best way to go about it. I have a juki 1541s if that matters. Quote
mikesc Posted March 12, 2017 Report Posted March 12, 2017 How to install your speed reducer, will depend on what your speed reducer looks like, posting a photo of it will make any replies/advice much easier.

Members JimTimber Posted March 12, 2017 Members Report Posted March 12, 2017 Easiest way to do it is placing the reducer where the motor started, and then moving the motor to a new location. Original belt goes to the reducer, new belt will be decided on where the motor winds up. If you need to switch sides of belt for access, you can reverse the motor in the controller parameters. Quote

mikesc Posted March 13, 2017 Report Posted March 13, 2017 (edited) copy and paste this following line ( exactly like it is ) into google site:leatherworker.net mounting speed reducer the results will be all the threads that are here on leatherworker.net about mounting speed reducers, many have photos of "how to" mount speed reducers like yours under flatbed machines like yours ( you have servo motor, some of the photos are of clutch motors and speed reducers, but the positioning is virtually the same, give or take a few millimetres ) ..the first two threads on those results will explain how to mount it..with photos.. http://leatherworker.net/forum/topic/8927-speed-reducer/ and this thread http://leatherworker.net/forum/topic/51826-adding-a-speed-reducer-to-a-flatbed/ HTH Edited March 13, 2017 by mikesc Quote "Don't you know that women are the only works of Art" ..

mikesc Posted March 13, 2017 Report Posted March 13, 2017 Btw..using Google ( or Bing or whatever search engine ) like that to find what might be on a site works for any subject and any site.. this part ( with the full colon )like so site: tells the search engine to only look on a particular site next comes the name of the site ( could use any site name that you want to search ) in this case leatherworker.net and lastly ( after leaving a space between it and the name of the site ) comes what you are looking for mounting speed reducer put it all together site:leatherworker.net mounting speed reducer and voila ! I also ran ( for curiosity ).. site:leatherworker.net raccoons and got a whole bunch of threads from here with the word raccoons in them ..who'd a thunk it ..

Members Yetibelle Posted March 13, 2017 Members Report Posted March 13, 2017 I suspect you have the room to mount it like this? Quote One day I hope to learn how to sew..... Singer 111W155 - Singer 29-4 - Singer 78-1 - Singer 7-31 - Singer 109w100 - Singer 46W-SV-16 - Adler 20-19 - Cowboy CB-4500
Members Gregspitz Posted March 13, 2017 Members Report Posted March 13, 2017 Speed reducer I installed went directly in line with the machine and I just had to move the servo motor a little Quote Greg Spitz MD,FACS Custom Watch Straps 922Leather Gregspitz@922Leather.com
