I have a nice Elna sewing machine, and it always seems like it wants to pull off to the left by the end of the seam. I primarily have issues at the end of my seam, I have to really guide that fabric or it will decrease my 1/4 inch seam in half. Is this an adjustment that needs to be done?

For those who might be interested, here is a good Youtube tutorial on how to adjust feed dogs:

That is a great tutorial on adjusting feed dogs on what looks to be a Singer (definitely a mechanical machine). I'm wondering if it is that simple on a computerized machine?

Actually it would appear that it might be that simple. I found this tutorial for Janome https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDEBxOVD8lE. The video is silent, which they would have added verbal instructions as well, though they do show pretty clearly the various screws involved.

The featherweight does have an adjustment for the presser foot pressure. There is a finger screw on the top of the machine head (just above the faceplate). Try adjusting that to see if it corrects the veering.

I didn't notice before, but the tension knob is missing the black ring with numbers on it. Can I adjust without the ring (without too much frustration), or do I need to get that piece? |
