LOOPERS AND SPREADERS
7. As the needle bar moves downward on each stroke and the loopers are moving away from the needle,
equal clearance must be obtained between the needle and the spreaders. If clearance is not equal, perform
step 8 below.
8. Turn right hand stop wheel until the needle bar goes down on right hand stroke. At this time, the left
hand looper is moving away from the needle and the left hand spreader passes the needle. There must be a
clearance of between 0.40 and 0.79 mm (.016 and .031”) between the spreader and needle. To adjust,
loosen nut
B
and move ball stud
C
in or out as necessary. Once the proper clearance has been obtained,
re-tighten nut
B
.
9. Continue turning the right hand stop wheel until the needle bar goes down on the left hand stroke. The
clearance between the right hand spreader and the needle should be the same as the clearance between the
left hand spreader and needle; if the clearance is not the same, repeat step 8 above.
10. Once the correct clearances have been obtained, thread the machine and “sew-off”.
