Basic Sewing Procedures
Position the fabric so that the needle is 2mm
(1/16 inch) in front of the area to be darned,
and then lower the presser foot lever.
Please Note:
When lowering the presser foot, do not push in
the front of the presser foot, otherwise the
darning will not be sewn with the correct size.
Pass the upper thread down through the
hole in the presser foot. Pull down the
buttonhole lever .
The buttonhole lever is positioned behind
the bracket on the buttonhole foot. Gently
hold the end of the upper thread in your left
hand, and then start sewing.
Please Note:
When you select any buttonhole pattern or
darning pattern, LCD screen will show the
figure " ", it is to remind you to lower the
buttonhole lever.
Darning stitches are sewn from the front of
the presser foot to the back, as shown.
If the sewing range is too big to sew, then we
suggest you can sew several times (or cross
sew) to get better sewing result.
