Timing
S2 drop-in bobbin
Insert a new needle into the machine. Turn the hand wheel towards you
until the needle is at the lowest position. Gently push the needle bar
to the left (not all the way but almost). Some models you set the
machine to the left position.
Slowly bring the needle up until the hook tip and needle meet. They
should meet as shown below. The reason for this point is the thread is
picked up by the hook from the scarf of the needle. If it picks up too
high on the needle it will skip stitches on the right and if too low you
will skip stitches on the left or center.
If
timing adjustment is required, locate the timing adjustment bushing.
Loosen the three screws on the bushing. The silver screw is a locking
screw and has to be tightened last after the timing is done.
After the screws are loosened, carefully move the hook to match the
picture below. Do not move the hook more than ½ turn as you may affect
the feed timing. Tighten the screws starting with the two black screws.
Recheck the timing.
