[Adjusting the counter knife]

1)

 

Properly installing the knife thread guide

Install the knife thread guide 

 so that the needle enters exactly the center of its opening.

2)  Properly installing the counter knife

1. The standard distance from the blade point of the counter knife 

 to the knife thread guide 

, which is posi-

tioned so that the needle enters the center of its opening, is 0.5 mm.

2. The blade point of the counter knife 

 is about 4 mm away from the center of the needle.

3. The sharpness of the counter knife 

 depends upon the installing angle of the blade point of the counter 

knife 

. The proper overlap of the counter knife 

 blade with that of the moving knife 

 will provide the best 

sharpness.

4. Whenever the counter knife 

 has been readjusted or replaced, be sure to check the sharpness of the count-

er knife 

, and adjust the installing angle of the counter knife 

.
