SEWING BASICS
d
Release the presser foot locking pin (black button).
The presser foot remains level, allowing the
fabric to be fed.
After the seam is sewn, the presser foot will
return to its original angle.
Note
Before start sewing, baste together the fabric and the
hook-and-loop fastener.
Make sure that the needle passes through the hook-and-loop
fastener by turning the handwheel and lower the needle into
the hook-and-loop fastener before sewing. And then, sew the
edge of the hook-and-loop fastener at a slow speed.
If the needle does not pass through the hook-and-loop
fastener, replace the needle with the needle for thick
fabrics (
page 19
).
a Edge of the hook-and-loop fastener
When sewing thin fabrics, the stitching may become
misaligned or the fabric may not feed correctly. If this
occurs, place thin paper or stabilizer material under
the fabric and sew it together with the fabric. When
you have finished sewing, tear off any excess paper.
a Stabilizer material or paper
First, baste the pieces of fabric together, and then sew
without stretching the fabric.
a Basting
Removing the flat bed attachment makes it easier to sew cylindrical
pieces such as cuffs and pant legs, or hard-to-reach areas.
a
Slide the flat bed attachment to the left to release it.
a Flat bed attachment
With the flat bed attachment removed, free-
arm sewing is possible.
When sewing cylindrical pieces, follow the next step.
Note
When you are finished with free-arm sewing, install
the flat bed attachment back in its original position.
b
Slide the part that you wish to sew onto the arm,
and then sew from the top.
CAUTION
If fabric more than 6 mm (15/64 inch) thick is
sewn or if the fabric is pushed with too much
force, the needle may bend or break.
Sewing hook-and-loop fastener
CAUTION
Use only the ungummed hook-and-loop fastener
which is for sewing. If the glue is attached to the
needle or the bobbin hook race, it may cause
malfunction.
If the hook-and-loop fastener is sewn with the thin
needle (65/9-75/11), the needle may bend or break.
