Retainer Plate Bearing Adjustment
Note: This procedure requires the use of a special service tool: the V-Rail Adjustment
fixture (p/n 995675-01).
1. Loosen the two socket head cap screws holding the needle case v-rail to the
retainer plate assembly as indicated in Figure 3-27.
2. Install the retainer plate assembly with the cross roller bearing centered between
the 2 v-rails.
3. Install the v-rail adjustment fixture (p/n 995675-01) into the middle front hole of
the retainer plate assembly as shown in Figure 3-27.
4. Snug the needle case v-rail to the retainer plate assembly very lightly with the
socket head cap screws. Do not overtighten the screws or the fixture will be
unable to perform its adjustment properly.
5. Carefully
and slowly rotate the v-rail adjustment fixture 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.
