6. SEWING SPEED TABLE
Operate the sewing machine at a speed equal to or lower than the maximum sewing speed selected from
those shown in the table below according to the sewing conditions.
For the LU-2810-7, 2860-7, 2818-7 and 2868-7, the sewing speed is automatically set according to the
amount of the alternating vertical movement of the walking foot and the presser foot.
In the case the stitch length exceeds 7 mm, change the maximum sewing speed referring to "6. Function set-
ting of SC-922" in the Instruction Manual for the SC-922.

* In the case the LU-2860, LU-2860-7 or LU-2868-7 is used with the needle gauge of
20 mm or more, the sewing speed has to be set to 2,000 sti/min or less at all times.
7. MOTOR PULLEY AND V-BELT (LU-2810, LU-2860)
The M-type belt should be used.
The relation between the motor pulley and belt length and the sewing speed is as shown below.
