HOW SEW A ROLLED HEM
* Rolled hemming is done by rolling and overedging
the fabric edge.
* Light weight fabrics such as lawn, voil, organdy,
crepe, etc. perform the best.
* Rolled hemming is not suited for heavy or stiff
fabrics.

* MACHINE SET UP

* Be sure the machine is disconnected from the
power source.
* Remove the left needle.
* Insert a #2054 size #10 or #14 needle in the right
needle position.
* Turn the hand wheel toward you until the needle
is at its highest position.
* Unscrew the throat plate screw.
* Install the rolled hemming throat plate being
careful not to catch the threads between the plate
and the machine.
* Replace throat plate screw.
* Open looper cover (page 6).
* Disengage upper knife (page 23).
* Remove the cylinder cover (page 9).
* Align the left edge of the stationary knife with the
"M" mark on the rolled hemming throat plate.

Note: Be sure the stationary knife is not in contact
with the edge of the rolled hemming throat
plate.
