Loop lift 2.8
mm.
The loop lift is the distance travelled by the needle from its lowest point until the tip of the
hook intercepts the needle. Thus, after completion of this movement, the tip of the hook is
behind the needle to accept the loop. The tip should intercept the front edge of the needle.
The position of the tip with respect to the eye, or the final height of the needle, is adjusted
after setting the loop lift.
The loop lift is set on left-hand stitch with the aid of the loop lift gauge 398 008 04.
A clamping piece 00 398 005 04 is fixed to the needle bar 1 08 in its lowest position, so
as to allow the distance gauge 1 1 0 to be inserted between the lower edge of the frame
and upper edge of the damping piece 1 09. The distance gauge 1 1 0 is then removed and
the handwheel turned in the direction of motion until theclamping piece 109 strikes the
lower edge of the frame. In the position the tip of the hook must intercept the left outside
edge of the needle.
