Remove the front cover (see to page 4). 2. Turn on the power switch, select the pattern no. 5 and set the machine at the maximum zigzag width.
DC4030P MECHANICAL ADJUSTMENT NEEDLE THREAD TENSION The standard tension should be 75 to 90 grams when the tension dial is set at "A" (auto), measured with a #50 white polyester thread being pulled at approximately 110 mm/sec. If the tension is outside the standard range, adjust as follows: ADJUSTMENT: 1.
DC4030P MECHANICAL ADJUSTMENT STRETCH STITCH FEED BALANCE When a stretch stitch pattern is sewn with the feed balancing dial position set at the standard setting mark " ", the stitch pattern should look like the one marked with a "...
DC4030P MECHANICAL ADJUSTMENT REPLACEMENT AND ADJUSTMENT OF THE NEEDLE THREADER PLATE If the hook of the threader plate is damaged, change and adjust the part as follows: TO CHANGE THE THREADER PLATE: 1. Push down the needle threader knob and pull the threader plate supporter (A) down to remove it (see FIG 1).
