The top feed amount can be altered without changing the bottom
feed amount, by top-feed adjusting lever
.
1.
Turn lock nut
@
in the direction of arrow. Move top-feed
adjusting lever
0
to work the top differential feed mecha-
nism.
2.
When the lever is set to
"S",
the top feed amount will be
reduced. The top feed amount will increase as the adjusting
lever is set to a larger number on the scale.
3.
After adjustment, turn lock nut
@
in the opposite direction
from the arrow to lock top-feed adjusting lever

For MOJ-2500N models
The Standard MOJ-2500N machine head is usuallv factorv-
adjusted to a
1
:2.8 (MOJ-25 14N),
1:
1.8
(MOJ-2516~) (main
feed dog: top feed dog) top differential feed ratio. If other top
differential
feed
ratios are necessary, adjust as follows:
1.
Cut the front end of the top feed dog by
3
mm at a maximum
so a clearance of
1
mm or more is produced between the front
end of the top feed dog and the front end
of
the slot in the
presser foot when the top feed dog is in the most advanced
position.
2.
Then, loosen
@
of stopper
0
,and move the stopper down
to adjust clearance
0
as tabulated below:

If
a
top differential feed ratio other than those listed above is
required, perform the following adjustment:
Remove the cover from the adjusting hole in the rear of the
machine frame, loosen locknut
@
to release main feed arm
pin

,
and move the main feed arm pin down. When the pin
is set at the lowest point, the maximum top differential feed
ratio of

will be provided. After adjustment, securely
tighten nut
