Machine Adjustment

Caution

Always turn off the power when mounting a needle.  

If the operator mistakenly steps on the pedal while the power is on, the machine will start
automatically and can result in physical injuries.

When using clutch motor, be aware that the motor will continue to rotate for a while even after the
power is switched off due to inertia.  Start to work on the sewing machine only after the motor has
come to a complete stop.

Caution

Turn off the power when adjusting the lower thread tension.  

If the operator mistakenly steps down on the pedal while switched on, the machine will start
automatically and can cause physical injuries.

When using the clutch motor, be aware that the motor will continue to rotate for a while after the
power is switched off.  Start to work only after the motor has come to a complete stop. 

1) Inserting needle

As in Figure 17, move the needle upper end so that it

directly touches the upper side of the stopper hole 

when

the groove 

of the needle is facing inward.  Then, use the

fixing screw 

to fix the position of the needle. 

2) Removing bobbin and bobbin case

Place the needle 

in the highest position, and then like in Figure 18, open the hook covers 

on the left and right, lift the

bobbin holder 

to remove the bobbin case 

and the bobbin
