Please Read Before Sewing
Straight Stitching
*Turn the stitch width dial to adjust the needle
position. Setting the dial to “5” selects the left needle
position; setting the dial to “0” selects the right
needle position.
Starting Sewing
1
Turn the pattern selection dial to choose the
Straight Stitch or Triple Stretch Stitch.
2
Raise the needle to its highest position and lift
the presser foot lever.
3
Pull up the lower thread by turning the
balance wheel toward you
(counterclockwise), and place both the upper
and lower threads behind the presser foot.
4
Put the fabric under the presser foot and
position the needle 1 cm (3/8") from the edge
of the fabric.
5
Lower the presser foot.
Backtacking
6
Press the reverse sewing lever down as far as
possible, and then lightly step on the foot
controller. Sew 5 to 10 stitches in the reverse
direction.
7
Release the reverse sewing lever and start
sewing in the forward direction by pressing
the foot controller.
You can use reverse sewing for locking the
end of seams and where you need to
strengthen a stitch.
Changing Sewing Direction
1
With the needle still in the fabric, stop the
machine at the point where you want to
change the sewing direction.
To avoid being injured, watch the needle carefully while you are using the machine. Keep your
hands away from moving parts.
Do not stretch or pull the fabric during sewing, otherwise the needle may be damaged and
you may be injured.
Do not use bent or broken needles, otherwise you may be injured.
Take care that the needle does not hit basting pins or other objects during sewing, otherwise
the needle may break and you may be injured.
Always use the correct presser foot. If you use the wrong presser, the needle may hit the
presser foot and bend or break and you may also be injured.
When you turn the balance wheel by hand, always turn it toward the front of the machine
(counterclockwise). Turning it the other way may cause the thread to tangle and damage the
needle or fabric. You may also be injured.
