Adjusting presser foot lift to 3 - 5mm

1.Loosen the screw (2) and open the intermittent cover (3).

2.Loosen the nut (4) and adjust the intermittent presser connecting rod (5) position.

(When the intermittent presser connecting rod is raised, the lift will increase. When lowered, the lift will decrese.)

Adjusting presser foot lift to 5 - 8 mm

1.Turn the upper shaft to set the presser foot to its lowest point. Loosen the screw (9) of intermittent presser arm (R) (8). Adjust the clearance between the presser lifter (6) and the presser bar bush (7) to 0.5 - 1 mm.

2.Loosen the nut (4) and adjust the intermittent presser connecting rod (5) position.

(When the intermittent presser connecting rod is raised, the lift will increase. When lowered, the lift will decrese.)

3.Loosen the presser foot screw and adjust the height of the presser foot so that it is 0.5mm above the top of the material being sewn when the presser foot is lowered.
