Important Note: The final 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: with the bobbin case basket in the normal
position, the basket needle guard may deflect the
needle and this makes it difficult to accurately adjust
the needle distance between the hook point and the
back of the needle scarf. With the basket rotated
down one can adjust the needle distance more
accurately. Figures 12.1, 12.2 and 12.3.
Important Note: After moving the stop-finger the
basket can rotate and be hit by the needle; you need
to hold the basket in place when turning the hand
wheel to prevent the needle from hitting the basket.
Rotating basket down:
1. Loosen the stop-finger screw with the 2.5 mm
handle hex tool tool .
2. Slide the stop-finger out of the basket groove, until
the basket can be rotated . 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.
3. Rotate the basket 180 degrees until large cutout is
up towards needle as shown in Figure 12.3. You will
now need to hold the basket in that position when
turning the handwheel to prevent the needle from
hitting it.
4. Snug the stop finger screw to hold the stop finger
out of the way.
5. Adjust needle distance (and loop lift) as directed in
the next section.
