Please observe all notes from Chapter 1 Safety of the instruction manual! In
particular care must be taken to see that all protective devices are refitted
properly after adjustment, see Chapter 1.06 Danger warnings of the instruction
manual!
Unless stated otherwise, during all adjustment work the machine must be
disconnected from the electric and pneumatic power supply!
Danger of injury if the machine is started accidentally!
For the adjustments in this chapter the PFAFF 1296 two-needle machine is
illustrated. On the PFAFF 1295 single-needle machines various adjustments only
have to be carried out on one side, i.e. in the right-hand hook area. This is
referred to in the different chapters.
