SECTION 3 TEST STITCHING

Starting Sewing

1 Insert the fabric under the toe of the presser
foot.
(It is not necessary to raise the presser foot
except when performing cover stitch or
overlock 5.)
2 Turn the handwheel gently toward you a
couple of turns and check the thread
chain. Then start sewing slowly.The fabric
will be automatically fed.
Guide the fabric in the desired direction.

Finishing Sewing

3 When stitching is completed, continue to run
the machine slowly to produce a thread
chain for about 12 cm ( 5") while pulling the
thread chain slightly to the back.
4 Cut the threads with the thread cutter as
illustrated, leaving about a 5 cm (2") thread
chain hanging from the end of the fabric.

Sewing Continuously

Insert the next fabric under the toe of the
presser foot, then start sewing.
(It is not necessary to raise the presser foot
for ordinary fabric.)
* For heavy weight fabric, raise the presser
foot and insert the fabric in front of the knife.
Then lower the foot and sew.
