Machine makes abnormally loud sound when stopping. 19. Button clamp does not rise. Cause Motor is not turning fast enough for the needle bar to advance to the stop position (standard motor speed is 1500 rpm). Brake is too tight. Motor is turning too fast and does not decelerate properly. (This occurs when the N75 pulley is used with a 60 Hz power supply.) Brake is weak.

Driving lever pawl does not mesh at top dead center of the button clamp driving fork stroke. Solution Use a standard pulley. 50Hz-----N75 pulley 60Hz-----N65 pulley Brake is too loose.
