9.1 Setting the feed-dog position
Correct setting
The feed-dog is exactly in the center of the throat plate cut-out, both side-
ways and in the sewing direction.
If the stitch length is 0, the needle pierces exactly in the center of the nee-
dle hole.
Various settings can be made depending on how far the position of the
feed-dog differs from the correct setting:
• For minimal deviations, it suffices to move the feed-dog on the carrier
• If this is not sufficient, move the entire feed-dog carrier on the sliding

Basic position:
The slot in the eccentric screw (3) is parallel to the setscrew (2), the
recess (4) faces the front.
If the forward and backward stitches are not the same length:
• Turning clockwise:
The forward stitch becomes larger, the backward stitch smaller.
• Turning counterclockwise:
The forward stitch becomes smaller, the backward stitch larger.
