straight up and down, adjust the Wire Straightener Nut (9067) so that the Wire Straightener Pointer
(9070) turns counter-clockwise. Remember, the MiniStitcher works optimally if the Wire curves
slightly to the right. Allow enough Wire to be fed through the Head so that an accurate assessment
can be made. After an adjustment is made it takes approximately four to six stitches to take effect.
If the Wire is feeding too far to the right, adjust the Wire Straightener Nut so that the Wire Straightener
Pointer turns clockwise.
Front-to-Back Adjustment
Look at the Wire feeding through the Head from the side and make sure that it is straight
front-to-back. The Wire Straightener Eccentric (9067) on the Wire Guide Spring Bracket
(MG10001A) adjusts the curve if it is not straight. Setting the Wire Straightener Pointer (9070) at a
position comparable to 7:00 on the face of a clock is a good place to start. If the Wire is feeding too
far to the front, adjust the Wire Straightener Eccentric so that the Wire Straightener Pointer turns
clockwise. Allow enough wire to be fed through the Head, about four to six stitches, to make an
accurate assessment. If the wire is feeding too far to the back, adjust the Wire Straightener Eccentric
so that the Wire Straightener Pointer turns counter-clockwise.
Once the MiniStitcher has been threaded and the wire straightness has been obtained, it is time to
begin stitching. Replace the Swivel Assembly (9038M or 9038A), the Swivel Operating Hub (9163)
and the Swivel Operating Spring (9046A). Set the Trip Mode Switch (PG10232), found on the back
of the Machine, to single stitching.
NOTE: The continuous Trip Mode is used primarily for oiling
and wire straightness adjustment.
Activate the Foot Switch (PG10230) once to load a piece of wire into the Swivel. Even though the
MiniStitcher has been tested at the factory, the wire draw adjusted and the legs equalized, the
following are directions to make these adjustments if necessary. One control, the Face Plate
Adjustment Knob (MG10013), controls both the length of the left leg and wire draw.
The overall length of the stitch is controlled by the amount of wire that is drawn from the spool after
each stroke of the MiniStitcher. To change the overall length of the stitch, loosen the Face Plate
Adjusting Lock Screw (9799) on the front of the Head.
