HELPFUL TECHNIQUES
Sewing corners
Stop the sewing machine when you reach
a corner. Lower the needle into the fabric
by turning the handwheel or pressing the
Needle Stop Up/Down button once. Raise
the presser foot. Use the needle as a pivot and
turn the fabric. Lower the presser foot and
resume sewing.
Reverse button
It is a good idea to begin and end seams (only
available on stitch 01, 02 and 08) with reverse
stitches to reinforce the seams in order to
prevent unraveling.
Press Reverse button. The machine will sew in
reverse until you release the button and then
stop. Press the foot control or START/STOP
button to sew forward.
FIX button
Use the FIX button in the same way as
Reverse button, when sewing with stitch
03-05 and stitch 09-20.
Free arm
Slide the accessory tray to the left when you
wish to use the free arm (A). Use the free arm
A
for sewing tubular areas such as pants, hems
and cuffs (B).
