You will need to adjust the stitch width to
match the distance between the holes in
the button. Turning the pattern selection
dial will narrow or widen the "swing" of
the stitch to accommodate most buttons.
Turn the handwheel toward you
(counterclockwise) to check that the
needle correctly goes into the two holes
of the button.
CAUTION
When sewing, be sure that the needle does
not touch the button, otherwise the needle
may bend or break.
Turn on the machine.
CAUTION
Do not turn on the machine while pressing
down the foot controller. The machine
may start unexpectedly and cause
personal injury or damage to the machine.
Start sewing.
• After sewing for about 10 seconds at a low
speed, press and hold down the reverse
sewing lever to sew a few reinforcement
stitches.
Pull the fabric to the left side of the
machine, and then cut the upper and
lower threads, leaving a length of 15 cm
(6 inches).
CAUTION
Make sure the needle does not hit the
button during sewing. The needle may
break and you may be injured.
