 IMPORTANT: The timing and needle distance
adjustment must be done with the front
machine cover on .
If correction of loop lift or needle distance is
necessary, then the basket must first be rotated
down:
Rotating basket down:
 NOTE: With the bobbin case basket in the
normal position, the basket needle guard
may deflect the needle, making it difficult
to accurately adjust the needle distance
between the hook point and the back of the
needle scarf. It is important that the basket
needle guard be rotated down, out of the way,
to allow correct adjustment of the needle
distance setting.
Rotate the basket out of the way to facilitate the
needle distance adjustment.
 IMPORTANT: After moving the stop-finger,
you need to hold the basket in place when
turning the hand wheel, to prevent the needle
from hitting the basket.
• Loosen the stop-finger screw with the 2.5 mm
handle Allen tool .
• Slide the stop-finger out of the basket groove,
until the basket can be rotated.
 NOTE: You may need to remove the stop-
finger. In this case, don't worry about
reinstalling it until after you are finished with
the timing adjustments
• Snug the stop-finger screw.
• Rotate the basket 180 degrees until large cutout is
up towards needle. You will now need to hold the
basket in that position.
(See important NOTE above.)
• Adjust needle distance (and loop lift) as directed in
the next section (beginning on page 34).
