5. Lower the buttonhole lever so that it is positioned be-
hind the metal bracket on the buttonhole foot.

6. Gently hold the end of the upper thread, and then start
sewing. Feed the fabric carefully by hand while the
buttonhole is sewn. Once sewing is completed, the
machine automatically sews reinforcement stitches, and
then stops.
Note
If automatic thread cutting is turned on before you start
sewing, both threads are automatically cut after the rein-
forcement stitches are sewn. If the fabric does not feed
(for example, because it is too thick), increase the stitch
length setting.
7. Insert a pin along the inside of one of the bar tacks,
and then insert the seam ripper into the center of the
buttonhole and cut towards the pin.
1 Basting pin
CAUTION
When using the seam ripper to open the button-
hole, do not put your hand or finger in the path of
the ripper. The ripper may slip and cause injury.
For Keyhole Buttonholes:
Use the eyelet punch to make a hole in the rounded end
of the buttonhole. Then insert a pin along the inside of
one of the bar tacks, insert a seam ripper into the hole
made with the eyelet punch, and cut towards the pin.
