Remedy
Adjust the height of the bobbin winder
tension assembly.
Adjust the position of the bobbin
presser.
Select a needle that is suitable for the
sewing conditions.
When threading the thread through the
needle, allow a distance of
approximately 45 mm between the
needle hole and the end of the thread.
Adjust the sub-tension so that the
upper thread trailing length after thread
trimming is approximately 45 mm.
Increase the stroke of the thread
take-up lever.
* Adjusting the stroke of the thread
take-up lever should be carried out
also if adjusting the sub-tension fails
to prevent the thread from pulling
out.
Set the feeding amount to
approximately 30 mm.
Adjust the sewing start speed.
Replace the part.
Select a needle that is suitable for the
sewing conditions.
Replace the needle.
Install the needle so that it faces
correctly.
Adjust the needle clearance.
Adjust the timing.
Replace the needle hole plate with one
with a smaller needle diameter.
Use a thinner feed plate.
* Recommended thickness: 1.5 mm
Process the work clamps and the feed
plate into shapes that can hold the
material near the seam.
Adjust the intermittent height of the
intermittent presser foot.
