1. Attach the Darning Plate to the needle plate directly below the presser
foot. To do this line up the prongs on the underside of the Darning Plate
with the holes in the needle plate. Push down to snap it in place.
2. Remove the All Purpose Foot and attach the Button Sewing Foot. (see
page 26).
3. Set the Stitch Length Dial control so that 0 is directly below the dot.
4. Set the Stitch Selector Dial so that the Straight Stitch setting is directly
below the dot.
5. Place the button on the fabric, then line up the button directly under
the front of the Button Sewing Foot so the 2 holes of the button appear
in front of the foot. Turn the hand wheel towards you to make sure the
needle clears the hole on the left. Step on the foot control and sew 3 to
4 securing stitches. Raise the needle out of the fabric and the button.
6. Set the Stitch Selector Dial so that the Zig Zag setting is directly below
the dot. Adjust the dial until the needle moves from the left hole into the
right hole of the button without interference. To test the movement of the
needle turn the handwheel manually towards you several times to make
sure the needle does not hit the button. Sew 10 to 12 stitches.
7. Set the Stitch Selector Dial so that the Straight Stitch setting is directly
