Position F inger B r acket A djustment
T he adjustable Position Finger is mounted in front of the hook assembly to secure the hook
basket in place and balance the bobbin thread down the center of the embroidery. T he
Position Finger is adjustable in two directions, left to right, and front to back. A djustment of
the Position Finger is required if the bobbin thread is running left or right of center, or if the
Position Finger was removed during the replacement of the hook assembly.
Sometimes the Position Finger moves out of adjustment. When correct, the Position Finger
notch, the protruding part, lines up centered with the hook assembly shaft.

Needle Plate, as a reference. V isually line up the needle with this hole, then adjust
