LOOPERS AND SPREADERS
Equalization of Loopers
There are two methods of equalizing the loopers: one method utilizes the 6” scale, and the other method
utilizes the timing gauge.
NOTE
: It is not important that the looper reach the center of the needle at this time. It is important that
both loopers are equalized after rising .093” or 3/32” on both the needle bar strokes.
1. With the looper carrier still loose, turn the left hand crank until the right hand stop wheel releases.
2. Turn the right hand stop wheel, bringing the needle bar down to its lowest point of the left hand stroke.
Continue turning the right hand stop wheel, bringing the needle bar up to a rise of .093” or 3/32”, using
either the timing gauge or the 6” scale.
3. Move the looper carrier back to the right, and position the point of the left hand looper to the center line
of the needle. Re-tighten screw A located on the back side of the race.
4. Continue turning right hand stop wheel, bringing the needle bar to the lowest point of the right hand
stroke. Continue turning the right hand stop wheel, bringing the needle bar up to a rise of .093” or 3/32”
using either the timing gauge or the 6” scale.
