lift the ribber, out with the needles in the ribber dial and lay aside until you set work up on the Machine. Now set the work up on the Machine in the ordinary way, knit about ten rounds and stop with the cam on back of the Machine. Then put the ribber in the Machine again just as it was before you lifted it out.
fig_6.gif (160622 bytes)Be sure in replacing the ribber
to have the pin on the under side
of the dial, against the lug on the
inside of the cylinder just so the
red mark on dial and cylinder
come together.  This will bring the needles in the dial in the vacant
space in the cylinder. Fasten the
ribber post securely to the cam-
ring with the screw. Before knitting
see that the latches of the ribber
needles are all laid back, now press
down on the weight, turn slowly,
and with the second round the ribber needles should take the stitches. The work will then appear as in Figure 6.
If you should fail in the first operation, repeat until you succeed. The ribber post is made of soft iron and should it be necessary, it can be bent.
    We send out each ribber adjusted so the needles take the thread at the right time, but should the dial move or be displaced on the cam, it can be turned to its place and fastened again by the screw having a washer under it.
