3.4.3 Adjusting the looper (Fig. 10)
At the moment when the loop is picked up, the gripping finger must lie
0.1–0.2 mm above the needle. This must also be observed when changing
the needle thickness. It is essential to prevent needle contact from occurring!
The horizontal distance from the large gripping finger to the eye of the needle should
be 1.5 +0.5 mm (Fig. 10). On the left side where the loop is released, the needle must
pass centrally in between the two gripping fingers. These values can be adjusted by
turning and moving the adjusting cam (6) Fig. 8 and rotating the looper shaft against
the head of the connecting rod (3) Fig. 7.
Check the looper movement by carefully turning the main shaft using the handwheel!
Check that all fastening screws are firmly installed!
