maximum work clamp height has been set to 17 mm using the operation panel (refer to "Work clamp lifting height" on P.17).
1. Loosen the bolt (1) and move the work clamp arm lever plate (2) up or down to adjust.
2. Apply grease to the bottom of the work clamp lifter plate assembly (3), to the top of the work clamp arm lever plate (2) and
to the sliding part of the work clamp (4) (grease is already applied at the time of shipment), and check that the movement
becomes easier.

Adjust so that the actual maximum lift amount for the button clamp is 13 mm above the top of the needle plate when the
maximum work clamp height has been set to 13 mm using the operation panel (refer to "Work clamp lifting height" on P.17).
Remove the compression spring (1), loosen the screw (2) and adjust the button clamp holder hook assembly (3) by moving it
up and down.
* If the button clamp lift amount is too large, the button clamp will not be raised.
