The hook is snicking the needle
I am working on a Singer 5808C. I realize this is not exactly a "vintage" machine. It's a plastic fantastic. I picked it up this weekend at a yard sale hoping to clean it up and find it a good home but I am having a problem adjusting the needle.
I can't find where to adjust it. It needs to come forward just a hair to keep the hook from touching as it goes by. I've done this adjustment on a Pfaff where it was a tiny screw towards the front of the insides that you turned one way or the other to adjust. I've done this adjustment on the Singer 400 and 500 series where it involves loosening some things and turning a eccentric behind the face plate. I cannot figure out anything with this machine.
Perhaps someone has ideas of another place to look? Is this ever an adjustment that is made to the hook instead of the needle? *I don't want to go messing with the hook if I don't have to!
Would pictures help?
