Members Constabulary Posted January 20, 2016 Members Report Posted January 20, 2016 When it works w/o needle plate I would guess the feed dog is hitting or rubbing on the needle plate so you have to lower it a little bit. Right feed dog hight is when the feed dog sticks out of the needle plate approx. a tooth hight or approx 0.8 - 1mm Also make sure the little tongue of the bobbin case is inside the notch of the needle plate This just a suggestion since I don´t the machine in front of me. I also have attached a 563 manual that came form Keystone Sewing Machine Co. It maybe helpful for the future.
