Proper setting
The two toothed belt wheels must be positioned above each other so that

upper toothed belt wheel and determines its alignment.
Important
The position of the upper toothed belt wheel is defined by the distance to
the winder wheel.
Therefore, you must first align the upper toothed belt wheel on the winder
wheel and then align the lower toothed belt wheel so that the toothed belt
runs correctly over both wheels.
WARNING

Crushing possible.
Switch off the machine before positioning the
toothed belt wheels.
The 2 threaded pins (2) for the upper toothed belt wheel (1) are seated
flush on the arm shaft (5).

If not all of the stitch lengths are available during sewing operation, a limit
can be placed on the maximum stitch length that can be set.
12, 9, or 6 mm can be selected as the maximum stitch length. The appropriate throat plate must be selected for the selected maximum stitch
length. The throat plate cutout must be large enough to prevent the feed
dog from hitting the edges of the throat plate at the front and rear dead
center.

15.1 Adjusting the synchronization of feed dog and puller
Proper setting
Feed dog and puller operate in sync.
The movements of carrier roller and feed dog end simultaneously.
The synchronization of feed dog and puller ensures that the sewing
material remains under tension between sewing foot and carrier roller.
This prevents ruffing on the seam during stitch formation.

must still be deflecting by approx. 1 mm in the lower end position before
the stop of the lever reaches its end position.
Important
If using a steel carrier roller, you need to ensure that there is a still a light
gap in the lower end position. The steel carrier roller must NOT rest on
the throat plate.
