- Whenever preparing the machine for sewing
- Whenever servicing
- Whenever replacing mechanical or electrical parts or accessories
Needles
Usually needles of the system 130/705 H may be used. However, in certain
cases stitch quality may be improved by using type ELX 705 needles.
Choose needle size No.80 for sheer materials and No.90 for normal or thick materials.

- Needle not set correctly - refer to "changing the needle" in the instruction manual
- Burrs on upper or lower looper - polish
- Burrs on chaining finger - polish
- Excessive tension on the needle thread
- Height and orientation of needle bar
- Clearance between point of lower loopers and needle
- Clearance between upper and lower loopers
- Timing of upper and lower loopers against needle
- Feed timing
2. Skipped chainstitches - Cover hems
Check and adjust if necessary:
- Needle and chain looper thread tensions not balanced
- Needle bent or with a dull point - replace needle
- Needle not set correctly - refer to "changing the needle" in the instruction manual
- Burr on chain looper - replace or polish
- Upper knife is dull - replace
- Chain looper needle clearance
- Chain needle guard clearance
- Angular position of chain looper
- Orbital timing of chain looper
- Chain thread take up lever timing
- Height and orientation of needle bar
- Needle plate spring plate bent
-
