REVERSE STITCHING

Reverse stitching is used for reinforcing the ends
of the seams.
1.Place the fabric in position where back stitching
is to be made and lower the presser foot.
2.Press reverse stitch button and sew 4-5 stitches.
(If using the foot control, press pedal while
pressing reverse stitch button.)
3.Press start button and resume sewing.
(If using the foot control, release reverse stitch
button and press foot control to sew forward.)
4.When you reach the end of seam, press reverse
stitch button and sew 4-5 reverse stitches.

TURNING CORNERS

1.Stop the machine when you reach a corner.
2.Lower needle into the fabric.
To lower the needle, you can either use the
needle up/down button or turn the handwheel
toward you.
3.Raise the presser foot.
4.Use the needle as a pivot and turn fabric.
5.Lower the presser foot and resume sewing.

SEWING HEAVY FABRIC

When sewing heavy fabrics, the toe end of presser
foot tends to lift up and sewing will hesitate at the
point that the fabric is thicker. In this case, place
a piece of cardboard or fabric of same thickness
under the heel end of the presser foot.
The presser foot lever can be raised 1 step
higher for placing heavy materials under
the presser foot easily.
Carefully guide the fabric with your hand when
sewing over thick fabric areas.

SEAMING GUIDE ON THE STITCH PLATE

The figure on each guide line on the stitch
plate indicates the distance between this guide
line and the center needle position. Guide the
fabric along the specific guide line in order to
get the desired seam allowance between the
stitching and the edge of the fabric.
