Here is a step by step on how to adjust the presser foot on your Quilter. You can adjust the presser foot
height easily without disturbing any other timing adjustments.
Presser Foot adjustment procedure for 1392D
- Using the touch screen or pendant, place the quilter at 180 degrees.
-
Turn the presser foot adjustment wheel to lowest position.
-
Loosen the 8mm bolts on spring retaining cups at top of presser foot rods. Be cautious as these
may be under a great deal of pressure. May require rod to be held by wrench.
-
Place 8 shims (typically half of desired material thickness) between throat plate and presser foot
directly under presser foot rods. Shims should be same length as presser foot front to rear.
-
Loosen the 16 8mm bolts that hold the cam followers on the presser foot rods. Notice that the
bearings on the cam followers will fall away from the cams.
-
Your presser foot is now sitting freely on the shims and that will become your lowest position
upon completion.
-
From left to right begin re-tightening as follows.
-
With one hand pull the cam follower bearing up firmly against the cam and tighten the 8mm
bolts so that the cam follower holds place on the presser foot rod. If done correctly you will not
be able to spin the bearing with your fingers as they are snug against the lower surface of the
cams. Do not apply excessive pressure or you will damage these bearings under a load. Repeat
8X
-
Again from left to right. Place the retaining cups on the springs and tighten 8mm bolt at top of
presser foot rod. This may require you to hold the rod with a wrench as not to put lateral pressure
on the cam followers. If you cannot collapse the spring enough by hand you can place the tip of a
long screw driver on the head of the bolt directly behind the top of the rod and carefully pry
down until the bolt is started.
-
Now you can turn the presser foot adjustment wheel to highest position. It should turn as easily
as before, if not you have something in a bind., go back and double check that the spaces
between the cam follower clamp and the bottom of the rod sleeve bearing (usually blue) are all
identical. As well as vertical distance between the bottom of the needle bar and the top surface of
the presser foot across the entire length of the presser foot. (This is a good reference point to
assure you have properly aligned everything). If this varies just adjust as needed by loosening the
8mm bolt on the cam follower clamps.
-
Double check that the cam follower bearings are still all snug against the cams. And you are
ready for operation again. I recommend starting the machine at a low rpm (200-300) and doing a
final look over just to be certain everything is tight and adjusted properly as not to interrupt
production once you start running material.
