4. If an adjustment is needed
remove the two screws that hold the
hook cover plate.
5. Loosen the hex screw with a 2.5m hex
tool
on the opposite side
of the small
steel gear on the lower shaft. After
loosening the first screw, reset the
machine as in step 1, 2 and 3.
6. Loosen the second screw on the small
steel gear after resetting the thread cutter
linkage.
**The hook race has to be held
tight as soon as the second screw is
loosened on the gear.**
While holding the
hook race tight, turn the hook race gear either
clockwise to raise the needle point, or
counterclockwise to lower the needle point in
order to get the correct adjustment. Tighten a
screw on the lower shaft gear to hold the
position.
7. Reset the machine again in
order to double check with the
gauge. If correct, tighten the
other screw and put the gear
cover back on.
Important recheck and adjust
hook timing after doing this
adjustment!
