ADJUSTING THE TOP FEED DOG FRONT TO BACK   

 

 

When top feed dog 

 is at the extreme rear end of 

its travel with a maximum front-to-back movement 
amount of 7mm (=L), there should be a clearance of 
1mm between top feed dog 

 and the end of each 

slot on the presser foot.  Adjustment is made by 
tightening set screw 

  on front-to-back lever

 with alignment mark 

 on the center of the 

up-and-down shaft driven lever.  To decrease the stroke, move up rod pin
