4.8 Sewing material transport
The machine transports the sewing material using a rigid upper transport. The feed
(stitch length) can be set from 3 - 7 mm in 4 steps. Serially, a pyramid-toothed (saw-
toothed for Cl. VEB100-4) feed dog is mounted, which can be exchanged for a saw-
toothed one (pyramid-toothed) if necessary. (see point „8 Variable sewing tools“).
4.8.1 Adjusting the stitch length
A T T E N T I O N !
Switch off the machine and push down the Sewing drive switch
pedal to ensure that the machine is truly switched off
Press the stitch setting knob ((1) Fig. 4) and turn the handwheel until it simply snaps
into place. Press down the setting knob and move the handwheel forwards until the
desired stitch length noticeably snaps into place.
4.8.2 Adjusting the upper feed dog
The feed dog can be adjusted in its intrusion depth to the stitch plate by loosening the
two fastening screws. If the stitch length is adjusted across a greater range e.g., from 7
to 3, then the feed dog should be readjusted.
Adjustments might also be required when changing to sewing materials that are
thicker or otherwise different in quality.
Here, observe the instructions given in the mechanic's manual.
