Controlling the amount of oil distributed to
the entire machine:
Controlling the amount of oil distributed to
the rotary hook:
The oil pump setting when you receive the
machine is typically correct. If the machine is
not getting enough oil, tilt the machine back and
locate the pump (A). To increase oil flow, close
the clearance of the adjusting plate (B) over the
opening (C) to increase vacuum pressure.
The amount of oil getting to the hook can be
adjusted by turning screw (E). Turn it clockwise
to increase oiling or counterclockwise to
decrease oiling. The range of adjustment is
about five turns (4).
NOTE: There is an oil window (D) on the top of
the machine (5). It will not show oil splashing
unless sewing at top speed with the adjusting
plate (B) fully covering the opening (C).
NOTE: If oil is splashing up through the needle
plate when sewing, decrease the oil flow to the
hook by turning the screw (E) counterclockwise.
