A flat knitting machine with a take-down system comprising a rotatable take-down roller and a counter-pressure member, between which the knitted fabric produced is clamped to draw it down during the production of the fabric, is improved in such a way that the take-down system functions faultlessly with fabrics which gradually increase in width as well as with fabrics which involve a rapid and considerable increase in the number of needles. This is achieved in that underneath and between the needle beds is arranged a longitudinally extending plate which is pivotable to and fro, has a length corresponding to that of the needle beds, and is provided with a blunt upper edge, over which is laid at least one endless take-down belt, which is tensioned between the upper edge of the plate and a drive roller located further beneath the needle beds, wherein the plate is urged in such a way that the blunt upper edge, over which the endless belt is laid, acts as a gripping clamp, which presses the knitted fabric against the needle bed, and thus prevents the fabric running back.
