CUTTING STEEL AND KNIFE ADJUSTMENTS

Adjusting the Cutting Pressure

The cutting pressure should be adjusted when the cutting steel is replaced or the material being sewn has
been changed. To change the cutting pressure, perform the following steps.
1. Loosen jam nuts A and move in or out (in will increase the cutting pressure; out will decrease the
cutting pressure) as necessary. Once the correct amount of pressure has been obtained, re-tighten nuts A.
CAUTION: The pressure should be minimized. If the pressure is too high, it can cause breakage of the
castings and damage to the cutting lever, as well as the cam followers.
2. If unable to obtain adequate cutting pressure by performing step 1 above, the cutting cam follower or
cutting cam may need to be replaced.
