Members DFH Posted January 4, 2019 Members Report Posted January 4, 2019 I have been reluctant to post this because I thought the solution would come to me . After last weeks tune up it sews good . The only thing that i am not happy with is it has to much presser on the feet . My machine has the adjusting screw coming down through the back foot bar . I have had it apart there is a flat coil spring on the outside and a spring on the inside with a rod that the adjustment screw engages compressing the inter spring . The outside spring is dominant and the thumb screw seems to have no effect on reducing presser . Should I be able to bring the presser to almost nothing or is what ever the outside coil spring produces the minimum ? Thanks for any incite on the issue Donny Quote
Members shoepatcher Posted January 4, 2019 Members Report Posted January 4, 2019 I have seen coiled springs cut down because they initially had to much pressure for the application. I would start by taking a link out a time and see if that changes the pressure on the foot. glenn Quote
