Cover Stitch
The 5 mm wide cover stitch is formed with two or three
needle threads and one looper thread. The needle threads
appear as two or three parallel lines on the right side of the
fabric. The 2.5 mm cover stitch is sewn with two needle
threads and one looper thread. The looper thread covers and
neatens the seam on the wrong side. The elasticity of cover
stitch makes it ideal for all stretch fabrics. The cover stitch is
sewn in the fabric and not on the fabric edge, i.e. the fabric
is not cut. The upper knife and upper knife arm are raised.
The cover stitch gives a truly professional finish to all your
home sewing. It is perfect for hems, top stitching, flat joining
seams and edging with elastic and bindings.
Stitch selection dial/ position F
To select cover stitch turn the stitch selection dial to
position F.
The sewing speed on position F is automatically reduced from
1500 s.p.m. to max. 800 s.p.m.
The needle stop is automatically set to down. The cover stitch
formation ends with the needle inserted in the fabric.
Note:
When sewing is completed or interrupted, the needles
stay in the fabric. This is ideal for positioning your work
while sewing. To remove your work, raise the needles
by turning the handwheel backwards, i.e. away from
you in a clockwise direction.
