<Backtacking and condensed stitches>
The feed amount for backtacking and condensed stitches
is set by means of the condensed stitch adjustment dial
u
.
The scale is a guide only; if the length of the finished
stitches differs greatly from the scale value, make the fol-
lowing adjustment.
In addition, carry out the following adjustment when ad-
justing the forward feed amount and reverse feed amount
so that they are the same.
1. Set the condensed stitch adjustment dial
u
to the "0"
position.
2. While keeping the backtack lever
i
pressed down, turn
the machine pulley about 10 times and check that the
material feed amount is zero.
If the material feed amount is not zero, make the fol-
lowing adjustment.
3. Turn the condensed stitch adjustment dial
u
so that it
is slightly to the left or the right of the "0" position.
Repeat steps 2. and 3. until the zero position for the
material feed amount is located.
4. When the zero position for the material feed amount
has been located, loosen the screw
o
, turn only the dial
section of the condense stitch adjustment dial
u
to the
"0" position, and then re-tighten the screw
o
.
