- Understanding the Walking Foot Mechanism:
- The Consew 206RB-5 utilizes a compound feed, meaning the feed dog, needle, and walking foot work together to move the material.
- Assembly typically involves correctly positioning the inner and outer walking foot components and ensuring they synchronize with the machine’s feed mechanism.
- Key Assembly Considerations:
- Synchronization: Proper timing is crucial. The walking foot must move in sync with the needle and feed dog to prevent skipped stitches and material damage.
- Clearance: Ensure adequate clearance between the walking foot and other machine components to prevent binding.
- Fasteners: Use the correct screws and fasteners, and tighten them securely to prevent the walking foot from loosening during operation.
- Safety First:
- Always disconnect the machine from the power source before performing any assembly or maintenance.
- Exercise caution when handling small parts and tools.
