NOTE:
The
function
of
Bumper
(H) is
to
maintain
the
relation
between
the
end
of
the
Throat
Plate
and
the
Mat
at
the
stopping
point,
and
by
the
same
token
maintain
the
relation
between
the
first
row
of
stitches
and
the
front
bar
of
the
buttonhole,
as
illustrated
below.
If
any
gap in
the
stitching
exists
at
this
point,
the
engagement
of Pawl (L) on
the
extension
of
^e
Shifting
Lever
is
too
short
and
should
be increased by adjusting
Screw
(J) slightly
outward.
If
there
Is
any
crowding
of
the
row
stitches
at
the
front
bar,
^e
engagement of Pawl (L) is
excessive
and
should
be
decreased
by
adjusting
Screw
(J)
slightly
inward.
