3.When using a DBX1 needle, align to marker line “A” on the Needle Bar (31c) with the bottom end of the Needle Bar Lower Bushing (27c), then tighten Bolt (28c).

When using a DAX1 needle, align to marker line “B” on the Needle Bar (31c) with the bottom end of the Needle Bar Lower Bushing (27c), then tighten the Bolt (28c).

4.When using a DBX1 needle, loosen Rotating Hook (20c) Set Screws, turn the Hand Wheel, and align the marker line “B” on the Needle Bar (31c) with the bottom end of the Needle Bar Lower Bushing (27c).

When using a DAX1 needle, align the marker line “D” on the Needle Bar (31c) with the bottom end of the Needle Bar Lower Bushing (27c).

5.After making the adjustments in steps 3 and 4, align the Hook Blade Point on the Rotating Hook (20c) with the center of the Needle.

Provide a clearance of .001” to .004” (0.04 to 0.1 mm) between the Needle and the Hook Blade Point. This clearance is less than 1/64” (almost touching). Securely tighten the Set Screws on the Rotating Hook. If the clearance is too small, the tip of the Hook Blade Point will be abraded. If it is too large, it will lead to skipped stitches.

1.Turn the Hand Wheel (7b) to bring the Needle Bar down to the lowest point of its stroke.

2.Remove and set aside the Rubber Plug (46a). Loosen the Bolt (28c).
