140TH ANNIVERSARY LIMITED EDITION SEWING MACHINE
Magical Innovation
140 year of
Once upon a time, in 1689, a royal arms
factory was founded by the waterfalls in the
small town of Huskvarna, Sweden. The best
muskets and riÁ es were produced and used
by the King’s army while trying to conquer
Europe. Over the years, wars became less
frequent and the company sought new items to
manufacture.
In 1872, the company board of Husqvarna decided to start
manufacturing sewing machines and the NORDSTJERNAN
(NORTHERN STAR
) sewing machine saw the light of day!
Ten years later, the FREJA
sewing machine was an immediate
success. It was capable of sewing stitches in a neat, straight line –
something earlier models could not do.
As the years passed, HUSQVARNA VIKING
®
sewing machines
developed a reputation for being the most innovative and offering
sewers time-saving features so they can focus on the joy of sewing.
This still holds true today and the brand holds many technological
patents that represent innovative breakthroughs in the sewing
industry.
Three hundred years ago Sweden tried to conquer Europe, but
instead HUSQVARNA VIKING
®
sewing and embroidery machines
conquered the world!
Congratulations on the purchase of your HUSQVARNA
VIKING
®
TRIBUTE™ Limited Edition sewing machine designed
to celebrate our 140th year anniversary!
ank you...
...for spreading the
joy of sewing!

Some fabrics have a lot of excess dye which can cause discoloration on other fabric but also on
your sewing machine. This discoloring may be very difÀ cult or impossible to remove.
Fleece and denim fabric in especially red and blue often contain a lot of excess dye.
If you suspect that your fabric/ready-to-wear garment contains a lot of excess dye, always pre-
wash it before sewing to avoid the discoloring.

ADJUSTING THE SEWING SPEED
You can control the sewing speed in two
ways; with the speed control slide or
with the foot control.
Speed Control Slide
With the speed control slide, you can
change the sewing speed to suit your
needs. The slide limits how fast you can
sew.
To increase the sewing speed, slide the
bar to the right.
To reduce the sewing speed, slide the bar
to the left.
Foot Control
You can control the sewing speed by
using the foot control. The harder you
press the foot control, the faster the
machine sews.
If you press the foot control all the way,
the machine runs at the maximum speed
set by the speed control slide.
NEEDLE UP/DOWN
Touch this button to move the needle
down or up. The setting of the needle
stop position is changed at the same
time.

Needle up/down
40 – Utility Sewing
Gathering Foot
Gather fabric or gather and attach a
rufÁ e in one step. Suitable for light to
medium weight fabrics. Straight stitch,
(left needle position), length 4. The
longer the length, the more fabric will
gather. Snap on Gathering Foot.
For gathered fabric:
Place fabric under Gathering Foot and
sew. Increase upper tension for tighter
gathers.
To gather and attach gathered fabric in one step:
Place fabric to be gathered under the
presser foot right side up. Place fabric to
have rufÁ e attached to it in the groove
of the foot right side down. Sew, guiding
the under fabric but do not hold it
back. Keep the top fabric in the groove
moving steadily as needed. Increase the
stitch length and the upper tension for
more gathers.
Quilter’s 1/4” Piecing Foot
Sew a scant 1/4” seam allowance. Red
lines mark 1/4” and 1/8” pivot points in
front of and behind the needle. Straight
stitch, length 2.0-2.5.
Place to pieces of fabric right sides
together. Sew with edge of fabric at
edge of foot. To pivot 1/4” from end
of fabric, stop sewing with needle stop
down, when fabric edge reaches À rst red
mark on foot.
