The point of the looper should pass the center of the left needle and 0.5~1mm above the
top of its needle's eye when the looper moves to the left or right on the front or back side of
the needles (see the illustration below). Refer to 5-4 for the height of the needle.
To adjust the timing of the looper to the needles,
1. Remove the machine cover.
2. Loosen screws A on the timing pulley (upper).
3. Shift the timing pulley (upper) by turning the handwheel while holding the timing
pulley (upper) by hand.
