4) Turn ON the power to the sewing machine.
5) Turn the handwheel
7
by hand in the normal direction
of rotation of the sewing machine
A
.
(Normal direction of rotation of the sewing machine
A
is the counterclockwise direction as observed from the

, and tighten moving knife tightening screw
!1
(tightening torque : 3 to 4 N·m) so that convex
F
of moving knife

aligns with end
G
of the thread
pulling plate to adjust the moving knife to the correct
receding position.
*
Checking the fully receded position of the moving
knife and the correcting operation have been
completed in steps 1) through 10). Be sure to return
the connectors replaced in step 3) and return the
components removed in steps 1) and 2) as well. Then
securely tighten the setscrews.
