Tajima help
« on: July 22, 2012, 12:07:23 PM »
Just purchased a used TEHX C1501 for sampling, as I was tuning and timing it up I noticed the needle touches the fabric before the presser foot does. I can't get any more downward adjustment on the foot, its off a good 1/8" or more. Any thoughts.
Thanks

Thanks, I have been down that road with little helpful information. I am experienced with setting the timing and the needle bar ht stops, but have never come across this problem before. I am starting to think its an adustment in the lower recipricator, but I don't think that is possible.

Thanks all, I figured it out, there is a window on the left side where the motors are located. adjusted cam on PF arm. Didn't have to take anything apart except a cover.
