vibration remains at the same level as previous models.
With adoption of a newly developed
rotary hook, sewing a low thread tension has become possible
which improves sewing performance.Note: Regarding the motor
pulley relative to the sewing speed, each model is set for
2,800 s.p.m. at the time of shipment from the factory. Motor
pulley for maximum speed to be used with 371U2A/3A/4A is
supplied as option.
