3.1 Hook and the hook box
3.1.1 Description
The hook (1) is mounted on the shaft (2) and is driven by the
gear (3) from the shaft (4).
The shaft of the hook (2) is mounted on the top in a sliding
bearing and, on the bottom, in a needle bearing.
The hook is provided with a lever (6) which is tilted when
removing the bobbin (7). The protecting sheet (8) protects
against the collision of the needle with the hook point. The
bobbin case opener (9) is driven by the eccentric (10) on the
shaft (2).
The lubricating tube (11), on which a lubricating wick is
fastened in the tube (12), feeds oil for lubricating the sliding
bearing (5) of the eccentric (10) and the hook path.
The screws (13) serve for taking up the clearance of the gear.
The screws (14) fasten the hook box to the bedplate.
The lubricating felt (15) is connected by the wick (16) with the
main lubricating system and serves for lubricating the gear
(3).
3.1.2 Height setting of the hook
The designated distance A should be 5.3 mm.
Caution! Danger of injury!
Switch off the main switch ! Before starting the
setting operation, wait until the motor stops!
- Remove the slide plate (1).
- Loosen both screws (2).
- By turning the screws (3 and 4), set the required distanceA.
After having set it, tighten carefully the screws.
For setting
up use the setting gauge (7) as per the repective figure.
- By axial shifting of the gear wheel (5), set the axial clearance
in such a way that this clearance is the least possible, but
sufficient for turning easily the hook.
- Tighten carefully the screws (2). Caution ! One of these
screws must bear on the flat of the shaft 6).
3.1.3 Setting the distance of the hook from
the needle
The hook point (1) is set up to the maximum distance of
0.1 mm from the bottom of the needle recess (2). For the
sewing category 2, the needle size 100 is set, for the sewing
category 3, it is the needle size 160.
Caution! Danger of injury!
Switch off the main switch ! Before starting the
setting operation, wait until the motor stops!

- Shift the hook box (6) at the determined distance between
the needle and the hook point.
- Tighten the screw (4).
- Tighten duly the screws (5).
