stitching problem with my Juki 441 clone

[esantoro]

I've been trying to troubleshoot a stitching problem with my Juki 441 clone. I came upon the spacing ring or inner race ring and realized there are rings of differing thickness made. I took out this ring to measure it's thickness (3.51mm).

In reassembling the whole race/shuttle assembly I couldn't remember how that inner race ring is to be inserted. Should the side with the beveled edge face outward or inward toward the machine? I think I had been using the machine with that bevel facing outward.

Thanks for the help.

Hi Ed,

On the shuttle race back, any bevel should go outward.

Thanks, Art. I need to change the positioning.

HI Ed,

Honestly, I don't know if it makes much difference, I just know that is the way one of mine is (I took it apart to check).
