- Simple trick to get more room under the presser foot. Edit: I'm not sure I stressed this enough in the video, but the magnets MUST be rare earth magnets. Regular magnets will not work. You can get them here:

Very Helpful. I ended up drilling out the Heavy Piece and inserting an adjustable bolt. It got messy before it got better (clearances and tolerances). But the concept was huge and it will make my life a wonderful thing. Thank you so very much.
Omg you’re a life saver! Thank you thank you!
I haven't tried this yet, but will after I get off the computer. I stumbled on this video, and been dealing with this issue, but never found a solution. Thanks for posting. BTW, I don't know if they are the right size, but Phillips Sonicare electric toothbrushes have great rare earth magnets in them, so don't discard them when they get old without removing those magnets first. UPATE: I tried the magnet trick, using a rare earth magnet, but after examining it I thought of a better way, by just bending the arm. To remove the arm I removed the one screw that holds it on. I then used a vise to hold it and slightly bent the arm. I did that a few times until I got the height I was looking for (about 1/2"). So far works great.
The walking foot and presser foot bar heights are both easily adjustable on these machines with no spacers or anything like that.
If you have a link that would be great. I've watched every Sailrite video and could not find anything that addresses this problem.
@Stitch Biatch I've tried to add a link here but it keeps disappearing for some reason. The video is called "Complete Guide to Setting the Feet Height & Range." It is not listed/searchable on TH-cam but you can find it through a Google search. The adjustment only takes a few minutes and it made a huge difference on my Consew version of this machine.

@@pyrosketcher1490I can’t find this video anywhere. :( I did a google search and it’s not there
Had this machine for years and struggled with that horrible lift. Anxious to try this tomorrow. Thanks for this!
I just tried this on my Reliable Barracuda 200zw and it worked, I now have over 1/2 inch of lift! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the video. Do you know if there is any hack to increase the size of the stitches?
Looking to get this machine to learn/ practice automotive upholstery. Are all the saltire presser foots compatible with it.
Very useful tip. Thank you very much for sharing.
Thanks a lot. I changed that on my machine. Use a screw though and made it adjustable. Happy that I found your video :-)
I'd rather use a screw but am having trouble getting one in. Tight spot.
Damn good video, thank you. I have the same problem with my Barracuda 200zw
I have the same unit and like to know more. Videos. Thank you.
I will post more videos about this machine as soon as my busy season at work is over.
Hi again. I tried this and can't seem to get it to work on my machine (which is exactly the same as yours).
What happens is that the pressure foot is hesitant to go down. I have to make a stitch b4 it releases and goes down. Then, when stitching, the lift lever is jumping up and down and the stitch length varies and soon pinches down to extremely short. It seems the foot goes backwards b4 going forward.
I remove the magnets and it works OK again. I tried it with just one magnet as well and same thing happens, just not as bad.
Could I be doing something wrong?

This didn’t work for me. The Rex settings are nothing like the Sailrite and now it’s gonna take forever to get it back the way it was. If I get the lift where I want it nothing else is right. If you have tried this on an actual Rex 607z please let me know
Update. I found the problem I had was that the magnet would stick to the part above that shelf and stay there for a second, then turn sideways, creating way too much of a space. That is what caused the foot lift lever to be popping up and down as well as the erratic stitch lengths. I cut a slice of 5/8" threaded rod to create the same thickness as the magnet, and crazy glued it onto that shelf instead of using the magnet. So far so good. I'll report again after I've tried a real project with the machine.
Are you sure you're using rare earth magnets? I didn't have this problem at all; I have tried super glue and metal but it came undone after about the third usage of the machine.
@@stitchbiatch3715 my magnets aren't rar earth...just refrigerator magnets but good ones that are hard to move.
The crazy glue worked ok for 5 minutes then let go. Trying magnets again but the upper plate they push against is also metal and the magnets stick to it just as much as they do to the one they are on.
Can't see how rare earth can adhere to one and not the other. I wonder if the square edge on yours is giving it purchase on the vertical part of that ledge too. Coud that give it more attraction to the lower ledge than the upper?
@@jjaylad it will never work. Just get rare earth magnets. They will not move.

Just use proper setup and adjust walking foot and Presser foot, Don't risk damaging your machine by bending lift mechanism! Sailrite has great video on setting up machine correctly. Foot height, thread and bobbin tension, proper oiling and maintenance. proper needle tread combinations. Machines are the same, Good luck
