3.3 How to adjust the strength on the safety clutch
device (Fig.23)
A. When the white mark of the eccentric pin aims at the
centre of the lower shaft, indicates that the strength on
the safety clutch is the minimum. When the white mark
points outward, the strength is properly increased.

loosen the set screw of eccentric pin, and turn the
eccentric pin.

3.4 Adjust the upper feed mechanism (Fig.23)
If the upper and lower feed are not in timing during
sewing, the long hole of the horizontal feed crank(right)
should be adjusted to get the length of upper feed.
Adjusting as follows:
A. Loosen the special stud.
B. Move the stud upward to decrease the amount of
upper feed.
C. Move the stud downward to increase the amount of
upper feed. Theoretically, when it is on the reference
line of the horizontal feed crank, the upper feed amount
equals to the lower feed amount.
D. After adjustment, tighten the special stud.
