Specifications
5. Carefully and slowly rotate the v-rail adjustment fixture (either clockwise or
counter-clockwise) until you feel a slight resistance. The left and right retainer
plate bearings should now be snug against the bottom of the embroidery head
v-rail.
6. Tighten the socket head cap screws securely and remove the fixture.
7. Push the retainer plate assembly left and right as far as possible without the
bearings coming off the end of the embroidery head v-rail. While moving the
retainer plate assembly try to hold the bearings from rotating (one at a time)
with your fingers. With a medium amount of pressure, you should be able to
stop the bearing rotation.
Both bearings should require the same amount of pressure to prevent rotation or
the cross roller bearing will migrate out of position.
8. If required, loosen the socket head cap screws and repeat this process until the
bearings are adjusted as described in step 7.
Alternate Method
A1.After steps 1 and 2, set the retainer plate in its approximate location and snug
the two socket head cap screws as described in step 4.
A2.Attach the needle case as described in Section 3 of this manual.
A3.Check the bearing pressure as described in step 7.
A4.If adjustment is needed, place a flat blade screw driver or similar instrument to
wedge between the needle case side plate and the needle case V-rail.
