Thank you, and thank’s for all help!

I dont know why the 1st tension assembly is located differently, but it doesn´t seem to have been moved. Thank´s for all your efforts! I know got the machine to work properly. I got the stuck part moving with some heat and oil, and have now adjusted the hook to time with the needle a couple of millimeters earlier. It solved the problem with skipped stitches.

It´s a new machine to me. Looks very similar to yours! I´ll try with a thicker thread. Do you think it needs a thicker needle to? When I got it, it was fitted with a 300.

The first tension assembly is there, but you cant see it from this angle. Its a 25 thread., 160 needle.

Thank´s for your reply! I have been fiddeling with the needle bar all day long. When it is low enough to make the hook time properly, it gets to far down, and the needle and thread starts to interact with other parts of the shuttle, which results in a thread loop forming in front of the needle. So I think I somehow will need to adjust the hook timing.

Help me, please! I´ve been spending my day on trying getting my Adler 5-27 to work properly. It missed a stitch here and there, and I thought the hook-needle-timing might be off. Searching this fantastic forum, I (thought I) found the way to adjust it. Seems that the drive shaft was stuck and not able to adjust. have a look at the attatched picture! The red arrow points at the screw I loosened. Is the shaft supposed to rotate freely? It doesn´t. The blue arrows points at the screws I suppose are ment to adjust feed dog timing. Loosing them dont make any difference either. Am I wrong in my assumptions that the shafts are stuck? And, if so, how to get them loose? Sorry about my english. It is not my first language.
