Juki 1341 clutch play

[24602]

Thanks again. I’ll keep working on it. I cycled 15-20 times today. Should have oil in all the spaces so we’ll see in the coming days.  
 

BTW the belt on your 341 is much wider than the one on my 1341. Normal?

On my Juki LS-341 that button actually does work for both re-setting and popping (on many machines that button only works for resetting, not for popping.) The Juki LS-1341 may have a different mechanism. 

Using the hand wheel to pop the clutch puts stress on the belt, which may be a problem if the belt is not in good condition. 

You can also use a screwdriver to pop and reset the clutch, similar to what you showed in your last video.

I made a short video to show how I use a screw driver to pop and reset the clutch. This technique might be useful in certain situations.
