Help installing a synchronizer

Recommended Posts

Finally bit the bullet and bought a servo with synchronizer for my Consew 226. The motor installed fine and is running good (except it tends to roll backwards at the end of a stitch, but I increased the brake all the way and that seemed to help a bit) the problems started when I went to install the synchronizer. The instructions are horrible but I have a good basic idea of what (I think) it's supposed to go on like. The biggest problem is that the was no bolt on the end of my machine's handwheel. There was, however, a tapped hole. Except none of the bolts that came with the synchronizer work. They are all too big. I'm about to go to the store to see if I can get another bolt that might fit the threads that ARE in my machine, but I'm worried about the bolt being too small then for the connector that I'm trying to bolt on. I'm worried it might slip. Any advice? 

To give more info, I have a used Consew 226 that came out of a Lazy Boy furniture factory, and a Mophorn servo with synchronizer (looks like all the other China made servos out there)

I'm attaching photos of the handwheel of my machine, and the contents of the synchronizer package. There are also a few things that came with the synchronizer that I'm not sure what they would be for. Maybe they can help with my machine, I'm not sure. 

Thanks for any advice you can give. I guess if all else fails I can just run it without the synchronizer.
