In this position,it does not interfere with the running of the machine in any way, butshould a lump gather on the needles, or some other imperfectioncause a needle to rise slightly above its normal position, the fingeris caught, swung around and away (carrying the latch) from theplunger resting on it, and the spring causes it to descend, striking thetrip and stopping the machine. 122
