SEWING A SEAM
You can sew seams easily and accurately when you follow the suggestions below.
BASTING
Pin basting and hand basting are easy
ways to make temporary seams before
machine sewing.
• To pin baste, insert pins at stitching line.
NEVER place pins on the underside of
fabric in contact with the feed. Do not
sew over pins; pull them out as you
stitch.
• To hand baste, make long, loose stitches
that can be easily removed.

PLACING FABRIC UNDER
PRESSER FOOT
• To place fabric under presser foot, raise
presser foot lifter (1) to its "up" position
(2), where it locks in place.
• The lifter can be raised and held in the
"extra high" position (3) for placing bulky
fabrics under the presser foot.
• The presser foot lifter must always be
down for the machine to sew properly.
STITCHING IN REVERSE
To reinforce beginnings or ends of
seams, push in reverse lever (1). Machine
will straight stitch in reverse for as long
as you hold the lever in.
For continuous reverse stitching, push
lever in and slide it to the left to lock.
Unlock reverse lever by sliding it back to
the right and letting it return to its normal
position.
