Results of Improper Adjustment
Checking items:

❷
Upper looper
* Check that distance (projecting amount) A from the left end of left
hand needle

to the blade point of upper looper
❷
is 6.8 ± 0.3 mm
when the upper looper is in its leftmost position.
How to perform adjustment:
○
Bring upper looper
❷
to its leftmost position.
○
Loosen setscrew (B) of the upper looper arm.
○
Adjust the projecting amount of the upper looper by moving upper
looper siding shaft (C) up and down.
○
Tighten setscrew (B) of the upper looper arm.
○
Turn the handwheel to check whether the rotation torque is increased.

provided between the needle and the upper looper.
If the standard adjustment value is
exceeded, stitch skipping can be
caused.
