How do I time the feed motion?
How the feed works:
When the needle has risen clear of the material, the feed dog moves upwards and out of the needle plate. In this position, it moves the fabric toward the rear. Shortly before the end of its feed stroke, the take-up lever is at its highest point (top dead center – t.d.c.). With the stitch length set at 6 mm, the feed dog continues to move toward the rear by 0,6 mm. On completion of its feed stroke, the feed dog descends below the needle plate and the needle enters the fabric. Below the needle plate the feed dog returns to its starting position.
Correct setting:
When the needle bar has risen 2 mm from its lowest point (bottom dead center – b.d.c) the marks on rim 33 of feed driving eccentric 32 and connection 34 should be opposite each other (Fig. 7).
Check:
1. Remove the needle.

What is the general process for timing the sewing hook?
Timing the sewing hook normally consists of the following three adjustments:
1. Adjusting the needle rise,
2. the needle bar height, and
3. the hook-to-needle clearance.
The term ‘needle rise’ designates the amount the needle has to rise from the lowest point of its stroke until a thread loop has formed on its scarf side. When the needle is at the needle rise position, the point of the sewing hook should be positioned exactly opposite the needle. When the balance wheel is turned further, the point of the sewing hook should enter the thread loop, enlarge it and pass it around the bobbin.
The needle bar should be positioned vertically so that the point of the sewing hook can readily enter the thread loop above the needle eye when the machine is set for straight and zigzag stitching.
The sewing hook should be set as close to the needle as possible so that its point does not miss the thread loop.
The different adjustments of the sewing hook are carried out in the following sequence:
1. Hook-to-needle clearance
2. Bevel gear adjustment
3. Needle rise
4. Needle bar height.
How do I adjust the needle in the needle plate slot in the sewing direction?
Correct setting:
There should be a clearance of 0.2 mm between the rear side of the needle and the rear edge of the needle plate slot (Fig. 16).
Note: As system 130/705 H needles increase in size toward the front only, the point of a No. 100 needle is positioned exactly in the middle of the needle plate slot (as seen in feeding direction), while the point of a No. 80 needle is positioned slightly nearer the back edge of the needle plate slot (Fig. 16).
Check:
1. Insert a system 130/705 H needle, No. 100.
2. Push button 10 for straight stitching.
3. Attach the zigzag sewing foot.
4. Lower the sewing foot.
5. Turn the balance wheel until the needle is at its lowest point.
The needle should be the same distance from the front and back of the needle slots in sewing foot and needle plate.
Centering the needle in the needle slot of the sewing foot:
1. Loosen screw 54 (Fig. 16a).
2. Move stud 53 together with the collar and needle bar frame 52 forwards or backwards until the needle is centered exactly in the needle slot of the sewing foot (Fig. 16a).
3. Tighten screw 54.
Final check:
1. Raise the needle.
2. Place a piece of paper under the sewing foot and lower the latter.
3. Bring the needle to its lowest point.
4. The needle should be the same distance from the front and back of the needle slot in the sewing foot.
Centering the needle in the needle slot of the needle plate:
1. Raise the needle.
2. Remove the sewing foot.
3. Bring the needle to its lowest point.
4. Turn regulating eccentric 55 until the needle is the same distance from the front and back of the needle slot in the needle plate (Fig. 16b).
Final check:
Make a visual check with the machine set for straight and zigzag stitching.
How do I adjust the hook-to-needle clearance?
Correct setting:
When the machine is set for straight stitch, there should be a clearance of 0.05 mm between the hook point and the bottom of the needle scarf (Fig. 17).
With the machine set for its widest zigzag stitch, the hook point should almost touch the needle when the latter is on the left of its throw.
Check:
1. Remove the needle.
2. Remove the sewing foot and the needle plate.
3. Remove the bobbin case.
4. Unscrew and remove the bobbin case position finger.

3. Remove the C clamp.
4. Check to make sure the hook shaft has no end play.
5. Tighten the two screws 42 securely.
How do I adjust the needle bar height?
These machines are equipped with a transverse double-revolution rotary hook. When the needle descends on the right of its throw, the hook point arrives at it a little earlier, and on the left of its throw a little later than it does in the central needle position. As a result, the hook point is positioned a little higher above the needle eye at the right-hand zigzag stitch than at the left-hand zigzag stitch (Fig. 19).
Correct setting:
When the machine is set for its widest zigzag stitch, there should be a clearance of 0.5 mm between the top of the needle eye and the bottom edge of the hook point (Fig. 19a).
Check:
1. Push button 16 for the widest zigzag stitch.
2. Turn the balance wheel until the needle ascends on the left of its throw and the hook point is exactly opposite its center line. There should now be a clearance of 0.5 mm between the top of the needle eye and the bottom edge of the hook point (Fig. 19a).
Adjustment:
1. Loosen screw 51 a little (Fig. 19b).
2. Adjust needle bar 50 vertically, however without turning it, until this distance is 0.5 mm.
3. Tighten screw 51.
Final check:
1. Check the distance of 0.5 mm.
The needle holder should be exactly at right angles and point toward the right.
How do I adjust the bobbin case position finger?

4. Insert and screw on the face plate.
How do I adjust the bobbin thread tension?
Correct setting:
The resistance which has to be overcome when pulling a No. 50/3 cotton or a No. 100/3 synthetic thread through the bobbin thread tension should equal a weight of 20 to 25 g.
Check:
1. When a threaded bobbin case is suspended on its thread it should not slide down by its own weight.
2. However when you jerk your hand upwards the thread should gradually be pulled through the tension (Fig. 24).
3. There should be no pieces of thread left under the tension spring.
4. The tension spring should rest evenly on the bobbin case.
Adjustment:
Loosen the knurled screw a little, then tighten it again until you feel a resistance when pulling the thread.
Final check:
Repeat the initial check.
Note: Once the bobbin thread tension has been set correctly, make all subsequent tension adjustments on the needle thread.
How do I adjust the needle thread tension?
Correct setting:
When the upper tension dial is set between 3 and 5, the needle and bobbin threads should interlock in the center of the fabric during both straight and zigzag stitching. This applies to a No. 50/3 cotton or a No. 100/3 synthetic thread (Figs. 25 and 25a).
Check:
Set the needle thread tension at 5 and sew straight and zigzag stitches at stitch length 2.
Adjustment:
1. Turn tension nut 68 toward the left as far as it will go (Fig. 25b).
