STITCH BITE WIDTH ADJUSTMENT
The stitch bite is the width of the stitch. The width will vary with different types of materials. An example
of the stitch bite is shown below.
To adjust, loosen nut A, and move drag link B up or down (up decreases stitch bite; down increases stitch
bite) as necessary. Once the adjustment has been made, re-tighten nut A.
NOTE: When setting this adjustment, check the
position of the needle to the gimp hole on the throat
plate. The point of the needle should be just to the right
of the gimp hole. This is to ensure that the needle does not
pass through the gimp during sewing. Also when the
stitch bite is change, the looper timing will need to be
re-checked.
