Straight stitch

Straight stitch B/C is the basic straight
stitch. The stitch length can be increased
up to 4 mm.
It is easier to do some sewing jobs by
changing the needle position, e.g. top-
stitching a collar or sewing in a zipper.
The needle position is determined by the
stitch width dial. (5 is center, 0 is left).
If you wish to make a topstitch farther
from the fabric edge, simply guide the
fabric along the guide marks on the
needle plate or use the edge guide. The
edge guide is inserted into hole (A) and is
secured with xing screw (B).
Note: Ensure that the needle is at its highest
position when adjusting the needle position.

Note: To ensure a consistent feed when
beginning sewing at a thick seam, we
recommend supporting the presser foot on
a piece of fabric of the same thickness as the
workpiece.
