CUTTING STEEL AND KNIFE ADJUSTMENTS
Knife and Cutting Lever Adjustment
1. Ensure cutting steel
A
is properly inserted into the cutting lever. To insert, loosen screw
D
and slide the
new steel in. It must be squared with the lever and seated all the way back to the locating pin. Once the
steel is in place, re-tighten screw
D
. Manually lower cutting lever
C
to ensure knife
B
and cutting steel
A
are in alignment.
NOTE:
When replacing the cutting steel, back off the cutting pressure as described on page 1-57, fit the cutting
steel to the machine, then re-adjust the pressure accordingly.
2. Perform “prick-in” as described on page 1-46 and 1-47. Remove cutting pressure.
3. Looking at the newly created buttonhole pattern, check to see if the knife cut is centered to buttonhole.
If the knife pattern
is not
centered to the buttonhole, perform following steps:
4. Loosen nut
E
, located on both sides of the machine; using studs
F
, move cutting lever
C
to the right or
left as necessary in order to center the cut to the buttonhole. Once the adjustment has been made, fasten
the studs in place by re-tightening nuts
E
.
5. Once the nuts have been re-tightened, ensure cutting lever moves freely up and down, and there is no
side movement.
