Adjustment Procedures Results of Improper Adjustment
1. Adjust the vertical movement of the feed at the position of lock
nut 2 in the long hole of feed driving shaft rear arm 1.
2. When the lock nut is tightened on the side of feed driving shaft
3 in the long hole, the movement is increased, and when it is
tightened on the outside (extreme top end of the long hole),
the movement is decreased.
™ MP-200NS : To fix at the extreme top end of the long hole
(Minimum feed movement)
™ MP-200NL : To fix at the position of approximately 1/3 from
the side of top end of the long hole.
(Caution) Check that there is no contact between feed dog,
loop guide and spreader.
1. Loosen setscrew 2 in feed driving fork end 1, move feed
driving fork end 1 in the direction of rotation, and adjust the
height of the feed dog.
™ MP-200NS : 0.4 to 0.5 mm
™ MP-200NL : 0.6 to 0.7 mm
(Caution) When adjustment has been performed, operate the
machine after carefully checking whether the feed
dog does not come in contact with other parts.
™ When the vertical movement is
increased, it is improved for thick
thread or cloth to be caught on
the feed dog.
™ To raise the feed dog and to
increase the vertical movement
as well are effective when stitch
gathering occurs with heavy-
weight material, overlapped
section, etc.
™ To decrease the vertical
movement of the feed dog can
control the flopping of material
by the feed dog. As a result, it is
effective for the process where
light-weight material or straight
sewing is required.
