I just put my new slimline clamps on and got a bit befuddled while reading
their instructions. They had me loosen the 4 mounting bracket screws so the
clamp base will move freely in the mounting bracket. They never said to tighten
them back down when everything was installed. Won't this cause some
misallignment of the design. ALSO, they said install the peel and stick UHMW
(never said what that stands for) wear strip tape (not provided as told), on
the top of the sewing arm. The tape will run from the rear edge of the throat
plate back. No tape; no diagram showing WHAT throat plate and WHAT sewing arm.
Instructions say the clamp will be sitting on the sewing arm. Won't that cause
a problem if metal touches metal as the clamp moves? And, the clamp window has
3 parts to each size selected; 1 bright yellow is the lower window that is
secured to the base with a black knob, then there are one yellow in addition to
one stainless steel upper windows, which attaches to the clam
ping arm. They never tell you which one you use. I am totally confused. The
directions leave a LOT to be desired if you ask me. They tell you to do
several things that are not possible (like push the black knob that holds the
lower window stright down to locate the clamp base on top of the UHMW wear
strip and set the proper height for support by the sewing arm. Well, it
actually screws on and I don't get the rest of the babble about a wear strip
and proper height...) I know this is kind of long, but so is my
confusion...I'm afraid to turn the machine on and try this out for fear it may
catch on something and break it. THANKS FOR ANY AND ALL HELP!! Debbie
