UNDER NO circumstances do you move or allow the needlecase to move with either
the right or left side black covers off!!! If you do the needlebar studs wil
not have any thing to hold them up and they will drop. The tracking groove in
the covers are storage grooves for the needle bar studs on the needles not
being used.
When re-installing the covers, thyey MUST be put back on so that the storage
grooves are in a parallel plane, otherwise as the needlecase moves left or
right the studs can get hung up in the center and not slide into the opposing
tracking groove.
This is done by what Sharon was saying.....put the cover on, leaving the screw
slighly loose so that the cover can wiggle. Then move the needlecase over just
so the outer most screws are still exposed, tighten them, then move the
needlecase to either the # 1 or # 16 needle, depending on which cover you have
off and tighten the rest of the screws.
But, if you have moved the needle case with one of the covers off, you now have
a far bigger problem if one or more of the needlebars have dropped.
