Consew 206rb-3 Feed Dog Adjustment Question

Recommended Posts

I bought a Consew 206rb-3 several months ago and am finally trying to get it up and running.  I purchased a Servo Motor from Toledo Industrial Sewing Machines and swapped the old motor and that went great.  I am now attempting to adjust everything as I am getting skipped stitches, no stitches and uneven stitches.  I do not and cannot find a manual for it but do have the Seiko STH-8BLD-3 manual.  Step 8-3 Adjusting feed dog position shows two distances 32.1 and 31.5, which is correct?  I have attached the page.

Thanks,

Heidi

I do see two different numbers, either one is going to work fine.  The issue is likely elsewhere.  If the needle is not centered, that's a different problem.

Gregg,  Thanks for your reply!!!  I had gone through the whole adjustment process when I first acquired this machine going through the 206rb-5 manual.  I was getting some major thread issues and ready to pull my hair out.  So, I did the entire process again using the Seiko manual and completed it today.  There were a few other differences from manual to manual so I went strictly by the Seiko manual.  I tested both fabric and soft leather; so far so good.  I am hoping for a great day tomorrow with no further "Help" posts to leatherworker.net, at least for now.

Thanks again,

Heidi
