Head Encoder – All Tables
When do I adjust the encoder on my sewing head?
Adjust this encoder wheel if you notice long or skipped stitches
when moving both forward and backward, or if the encoder wheel does not make good contact with the larger wheel.
BOTH Standard Models and Bliss Models may require adjustment of the head encoder wheel at some point.
Tools Required:
Rubbing Alcohol and cotton swabs for cleaning wheels (if necessary)
7/16” Combination Wrench or Socket
Time to Complete:
Approximately 10 minutes
First, make sure your encoder wheel and carriage wheel are free from any oxidation build-up. You can use rubbing
alcohol to clean both wheels.
To test the encoder wheel position, hold the machine head stationary, and try turning the rubber encoder wheel
separately.
Test resistance between encoder wheel and head
wheel by holding carriage stationary and turning
rubber wheel independently
