Sewing

Reinforced Straight Stitch

Turn the stitch length dial to the area
to sew reinforced straight stitch . This
stitch is stronger than ordinary straight stitch, due
to the fact that it is a triple and elastic stitch.
The reinforced straight stitch can be used for
heavy stretch fabrics, for crotch seams which are
subject to considerable strain and for topstitching
in heavy fabrics.

Needle Positions

You can select straight stitch and reinforced
straight stitch, with the needle in left position.
The needle position can be adjusted in steps. Use
the stitch width dial, turn to the right to reach the
right position.
To edge stitch, you should take advantage of the
possibility to set the needle to the left or the right
position.
Fit presser foot A when sewing light fabrics and
presser foot D for other fabrics.
Place the fabric and sew so that the edge follows
the inside right edge of the presser foot D or the
fi rst mark of the left edge of the presser foot A.
If you wish to sew about 5 mm from the edge or
sew a narrow hem, use presser foot A and set the
needle to the right position.
Place the edge of the fabric so that it follows the
outside right edge of the presser foot and sew the
hem.
