Narrow Hemming - VERITAS 9000A5 Operating Instructions Manual

Sewing

Narrow hemming

Note:
When sewing with the hemming foot, only the straight stitch 01 with needle
position «3.5» in the centre may be used! It is possible that the needle could
hit the presser foot and break when other patterns are used
1. Bend over the edge of the fabric about 3 mm; then bend over a further
3 mm along around 5 cm of the edge of the fabric.
2. Turn the handwheel until the needle enters the hem. Lower the presser
foot. Sew several stitches and then lift the presser foot again. Insert the
hem into the spiral-shaped opening of the hemming foot. Move the fabric
backwards and forwards until the hem rolls up.
3. Lower the presser foot and start sewing slowly whilst carefully feeding
the rough edge of the fabric into the spiral of the hemmer from the front.
