Viking Sewing Machine Manuals
Anyone know how to adjust dog feet on a Viking 6430 sewing machine?
A Viking 6430 sewing machine we recently bought over the internet will not feed material to be sewn. The dog feet rotate properly but continue to fall down and will not grip the material. I partially dismantled the unit and all seems to be in place, including the spring forcing the feet up. Any ideas? Anyone have a maintenance manual with info?
Take off the Needle Plate first and check to see if there is a build up of lint stopping the Feed Dog getting above the Plate. Also check that the Plate is flat, if not you may need to replace.
If there is no lint try this, set the Stitch length to zero. Turn the handwheel and you should see the Feed Dog rising above the Plate just as the Needle starts to go above the Plate. If it doesn’t you will need to adjust it higher. The Feed dog should be just below the plate as the Needle enters the Needle Plate on the way down.
Some machines have a Darning function to stop the Feed Dog rising and some also have an adjustment switch to set the height for thicker fabrics. I’m not really familiar with this model as I used to work on Industrials but you can buy an operators book from the link below, Maintenance Manuals are usually only available to Dealers and Sewing Machine Mechanics.
Another thing to check is when you turn the Handwheel if you feel a tighness for a few degrees (with the Presser Foot up) you may have a broken Gear. Also check that the Presser Foot is coming all the way down with no space between it and the Plate when the Needle is down.
Sewing Machines are precision machines and adjustments are made in thousands of an inch, a full service usually only costs about 50 to 75 without parts and you would need to find a Husqvarna Sewing Machine Dealer to get the proper service.
Best of luck, let me know if it works, Cheers, Joe
