5. Start the sewing machine and trace the needle drop
position around the eyelet hole.
6. Check that the needle drop positions around the eyelet
hole and the knife cutting position overlap uniformly.
* Checking will be easier if the cutting position value (A)
in the parameter settings is set to "0". (Refer to "5-3.
Program setting method".)
7. If they do not overlap uniformly, turn off the power and
carry out the adjustment in steps 8 - 13.

check, and if further adjustment is needed, repeat step
7.
