PRESSER FOOT PRESSURE
Pressure on material should be as light
as possible, while still sufficient to
insure correct feeding.
Adjustments for" machines having
alternating presser feet should be made
by your serviceman.
(See form )
When correct feeding pressure is attained,
tighten lock-screw to retain adjustment.

TIMING LOOPER DRIVING CRANK
When the looper driving crank is
properly timed, the point of the
looper will pass above the eye of
the needle at the same distance on
both the forward and backward
strokes of the looper. .
To adjust when point of looper
passes higher on forward stroke,
loosen looper driving crank set
screw (Fig. 12), loosen looper
crank timing screw (left) approxi
mately 1/0 turn, and tighten looper
crank timing screw (right).
Continue to adjust until correct
adjustment is made. Then securely
tighten set screw.
When point of looper passes higher
on backward stroke, reverse the
adjustment by loosening timing
screw (right) and tightening timing
screw (left).
8.
SETTING THE NEEDLE GUARDS
When needle guards are properly set,
they should pass as close as
possible to the needles without
touching. To adjust, turn machine
pulley over toward operator until
the points of the loopers are about
to pass the needles on their forward
strokes. At this point, the looper
timing mark LT. on the machine pulley
should be approximately 1/3 inch
above the arrow on machine arm.
Loosen needle guard set screw (Fig. 13)
Turn needle guards as close to the
needles as possible without touching.
Tighten set screw. Check by springing
the needles to the left and turning
the machine pulley to make certain
that the looper points do^not stroke
the needles.

POSITIONING SPREADER
Sidewise and height setting:
When looper on its forward stroke
is passing spreader;
The point of the spreader should be
exactly opposite top of thread
groove at left side of looper.
The clearance between spreader p^int
and looper should be approximately
the double thickness of ordinary
paper.

The sidewise movement of the spreader may
be adjusted for sewing under abnormal
conditions. Under normal conditions,
maximum spreader movement is generally
.used. To adjust, tilt machine back on its
hinges, loosen the two spreader driving
eccentric screws (Fig. 17), and the two
spreader driving eccentric flange screws. •
Move eccentric to left to increase movement
or to right to decrease movement. When
correctly positioned, tighten the two
spreader driving eccentric screws first,
hold flange against strap and tighten
flange screws. Then refer to preceding
information regarding positioning of
spreader.
Caution; l-fhen increasing sidewise movement,
allow sufficient clearance.between spreader
driving rock shaft (Fig. 17), and left side
of eccentric ball stud is in its highest
position.
