Stitch Width Dial & Stitch Length Dial; Reverse Sewing - Husqvarna VIKING Onyx 15 User Manual

STITCH WIDTH DIAL & STITCH LENGTH DIAL
Function of stitch width dial (model Onyx 25)
The maximum zigzag stitch width for zigzag stitching is 6mm;
however, the width can be reduced on any pattern. The width
increases as you move zigzag dial from "0" - "6". (1)
Function of stitch length dial while zigzag stitching
Set the Stitch Selector Dial to zigzag. The density of zigzag
stitches increase as the setting of stitch length dial approaches
"0". Standard zigzag stitches are usually achieved at "3" or
below. Dense zigzag stitches are called satin stitches.
Function of stitch length dial for straight stitching
For straight stitch sewing, turn the Stitch Selector Dial to the
straight stitch setting. Turn the Stitch Length Dial, and the
length of the individual stitches will decrease as the dial appro-
ached "0". The length of the individual stitches will increase as
the dial approaches "4". Generally speaking, use a longer stitch
length when sewing heavier weight fabrics or when using a
thicker needle or thread. Use a shorter stitch length when
sewing lighter weight fabrics or when using a finer needle or
thread.
