Members HardenGoods Posted September 9, 2018 Members Report Posted September 9, 2018 Hi all, was just wondering if my 341 clone was supposed to come with a small felt pad that sits inside one of the thread guides. Video I saw on YouTube has one on the Cobra 26 so wasn’t sure. Could just try cutting a piece and inserting it but wanted to find out a little more info first. thanks! Quote
Uwe Posted September 10, 2018 Report Posted September 10, 2018 My Juki LS-341 has a felt pad. The purpose is likely to soak the felt with Silicone or similar lubricant to coat the thread as it passes by. I have a feeling this pad goes missing on a lot of used machines, but new ones should definitely have it. Quote
Members brmax Posted September 10, 2018 Members Report Posted September 10, 2018 In some projects it may help with some silicone liquid applied to the juki Felt # B1131 528 000. In most projects you would not need or want this application. Although they made it for a reason, and it obviously has had a benefit to a large company. This part is tough to argue as I personally havent as they have spent millions on proven test and for this have happy customers. good day Floyd Quote
