9.16 Sewing on buttons

With the Button sew-on Program buttons with 2 or 4 holes can be sewn on. To reinforce the stability the
Button sew-on Program can be sewn twice. When sewing on a button with 4 holes, the front holes should
be sewn first.
Buttons sewn on for decorative purposes only are stitched without a thread shank. The shank height is the
distance between the button and the fabric. When using the Button sew-on foot No. 18 (optional accessory),
the shank height can be adjusted with the screw.
With the Button sew-on Program the first securing stitch is always stitched into the left hole of the button.
