To rotate the bobbin-case basket
1. Loosen the stop-finger screw with the 2.5 mm
handle hex tool.
2. Slide the stop-finger out of the basket groove,
until the basket can be rotated. You may need to
remove the stop-finger. In this case, don’t worry
about reinstalling it until after you are finished
with the timing adjustments.
3. Snug the stop-finger screw.
4. Rotate the basket 180 degrees until large cut out
is up towards needle as shown at the right. You
will now need to hold the basket in that position.
Â
IMPORTANT
: After moving the stop-finger,
you need to hold the basket in place when
turning the hand wheel, to prevent the
needle from hitting the basket.
5.
Adjust needle distance (and loop lift) as di
rected in the next section.
