center of needle from left. Push the front needle guard (J) against the needle (I) to adjust the
clearance between the needle and lower looper (G). The clearance between needle (I) and
the tip of lower looper (G) should be 0 to 0.1 mm. In this condition, the clearance between the
needle (I) and rear needle guard (H) should be 0 to 0.2 mm. Tighten the two setscrews (A).
8. Check the lower looper (G) position.

2.Set the needle plate setting knob (E) at the guide line (S) on needle plate.
3.Loosen 2 setscrews (A), and move chaining-off finger unit (B) to correct position.
4.Tighten 2 setscrews (A).
5.Set the needle plate setting knob (E) at the guide line (S) and (R) on needle plate and check
the position of chaining-off finger unit (B).
6.Attach the presser foot
17
TO ADJUST THE NEEDLE AND THE LOWER LOOPER TIMING
When the needle comes up 1.4 to 1.8 mm (A) from its lowest position, the tip of lower looper (B)
comes just to left side of left needle (C) on the left.
To adjust:
1. Remove the presser foot and the needle plate.
2. Turn the balance wheel toward you with your hand to bring the needle (C) 1.4 to 1 .8 mm from
its lowest position. Loosen the hexagon bolt (D) just enough to move the lower looper driving
arm (E), and move it until the tip of lower looper (B) comes just to left side of needle on the left
(C).
