STITCH SELECTION

STITCH WIDTH SELECTOR DIAL [Fig. 1]
The stitch width selector dial is numbered 0 - 5, repre-
senting the various stitch widths in millimeters. The
higher the number, the wider the stitch.
To select a stitch width turn the dial until the desired
width setting is aligned with the indicator dot.
STITCH LENGTH DIAL [Fig. 2]
The stitch length dial is numbered 0 - 4 representing the
various stitch lengths in millimeters. The higher the
number, the longer the stitch.
To select a stitch length turn the dial until the desired
length setting is aligned with the indicator dot.
When set at 0 the fabric will not feed under the foot.
NEEDLE PLATE SEAM GUIDES [Fig. 3]
The five seam guide markings on the right side of the
needle plate are set at 1/8" intervals. The first mark is
1/2" from the needle; the second, 5/8" and so on. Align
the fabric edge at a seam guide marking for a consistent
seam width. The standard seam allowance width is 5/8".
REVERSE SEWING LEVER [Fig. 4]
Use the reverse sewing lever to secure the beginning
and ends of seams.
With the foot control depressed, push and hold the
reverse lever down to sew in reverse. Release the lever
to return to forward sewing.
