STITCH OVERVIEW
The settings shown in the table below are our recommendations based on normal conditions. The correct tension is set
type of fabric and thread you are using. For best results make tension adjustments in small steps of no greater than half a
number at a time. Always test sew on a sample of your fabric before sewing on your garment.
Different stitches are obtained by combining the stitch selection dial with different needle positions, threading methods, and
the use of the 2-thread converter.
