11.7 Clearance of the Hook Points to the Needles
The clearance of the hook points to the needles must be 0.1 mm.
It is precisely set at the factory with setting pin 5 (Order no.
244 001014).
The set clearance makes possible the working with needles with the
needle thickness Nm 90 to Nm 110.
A correction of the clearance of the hook points to the needles is not
required when changing between these needle thicknesses.
After a needle change only the needle guard must be adjusted
(see Chapter 11.8).
The setting of the left hook point is to be made with the needle bar link
swung forward.
The right hook point is set with the needle bar link swung to the back.
