Adjustment Of Needle Penetration; Removal Of The Work From The Machine - Consew 75T Set Up And Operating Instructions Manual

9. Adjustment of Needle Penetration (Fig.18)
The depth of needle penetration into the cloth can be adjusted by turning the
needle depth regualtor knob located on front of the machine (Fig.18).
Fig.18
In Fig.18 at left you can see that the arrow at bottom
points to the depth setting.
Here you can see it is set at "4".
To increase needle penetration for light materials,
turn the regulator counter-clockwise. The greater the
number the arrow below the dial is pointing at, the
deeper the penetration of the needle.
To lessen the penetration for thick materials, turn
regulator clockwise. The lower the dial setting, the less
needle penetration. See Fig.18b for clarification.
To prevent damage to the needle and the machine, it is recommended to begin sewing with
the least degree of penetration (a higher dial setting), and sew a short length of seam to
test it. Check for catching of the material and appearance, making whatever penetration
adjustments are required until stitching is as desired.
NOTE: Beginning and end of penetration adjustments are controlled by built-in stops.
Do NOT force the dial to go beyond its stops!
The higher the number on the
dial, the closer the bottom
guide is to the needle.

When you lower the number on the dial,
it moves the bottom guide slightly down
and away from the needle thus making
more room for thicker materials.
10. Removal of the Work from the Machine (Fig.19)
Stop machine by taking your foot off the controller pedal. Turn handwheel (1a)
away from you until needle is moved as far left as it goes (1b) and is completely
out of the material. Press knee lifter (2) to the right and this will cause the
cylinder arm to drop down (2b). Now you will be a be to pull the work piece
towards you with a quick stroke. This action will lock the last stitch and
break the thread. Now your work piece is safely removed from the machine.
