Members dreamsicle23 Posted September 25, 2019 Members Report Posted September 25, 2019 Hi all. I tried Google for an answer but I think I'm not searching the right terms. This is the only place I know of where there's a group who regularly use industrial walking foot machines. I'm wondering if it's possible, and if so - how, to make the outer foot lift higher when it takes it's "step". I don't necessarily want to reduce the pressure, and I don't want it to be higher when it's in the down position, but right now it gets hung up if I go over a thick seam and I get a wonky couple stitches. My machine is a 111 clone, if that matters. Thanks in advance! Quote
Members Constabulary Posted September 25, 2019 Members Report Posted September 25, 2019 and what clone is it? Please post some pictures. Hung on the raised material I guess , right? Usually there is a cam on the backside where you can adjust the foot height. Quote

Members Constabulary Posted September 26, 2019 Members Report Posted September 26, 2019 (edited) I´m not 100% sure but do the 111 clones have the singer type "Foot Lift Eccentric" on the top shaft as well? AFAIK the clones have the slide cam (right word?) just as the Pfaff 145 / Adler 67. Or am I on the wrong track? Like this? EDIT: The manual came from Keystone Sewing: Juki_LU-563_Instruction_Keyfooter.pdf Edited September 26, 2019 by Constabulary Quote
Members shoepatcher Posted September 26, 2019 Members Report Posted September 26, 2019 C you are right. Should have the slide cam to make walking foot height easier. glenn Quote
