™ When the zigzag width is maximized, a distance of 0.2
to 0.5 mm should be provided between the top end of

Remarks Marker lines engraved on the face plate
™ The needle-to-hook timing is adjusted using timing gauge
E as described above. However, you can use the marker
lines engraved on the face plate for reference when
adjusting it.
™ Be sure to remember that the marker lines are used only
for reference. So, it is recommended to use the timing
gauge for adjusting the needle-to-hook relation so as to
make the most of many functions of the LZ-2290A Series
