Stitch Width Dial & Stitch Length Dial
Function of stitch width dial
When doing a zig zag or a decorative pattern you can alter
the width from 1mm to 6mm. To obtain a very narrow stitch,
set the dial to 1, to obtain the maxinum 6mm width, set the
dial to 6. When the dial is set to 0, you will obtain a straight
stitch. (1)
Function of stitch length dial while zig-zag stitching
Set the pattern selector dial to zig zag or any other
decorative pattern.
The density of zig zag or decorative stitches increases as the
setting of the stitch length dial approaches "0". The smaller
the number the closer, or denser the stitches will be.
Standard zigzag stitches are usually achieved at "3" or below. (2)
Dense zig-zag stitches are called satin stitches. (2)
Function of stitch length dial for when straight stitching
For straight stitch sewing, turn the pattern selector dial to the
straight stitch setting. Turn the stitch length dial, and the
length of the individual stitches will decrease as the dial
approached "0". The length of the individual stitches will
increase as the dial approaches "4". Generally speaking, use
a longer stitch length when sewing heavier weight fabrics or
when using a thicker needle or thread. Use a shorter stitch
length when sewing lighter weight fabrics or when using a
finer needle or thread.
- The standard setting for sewing a seam is between 2 and 3.
- For basting purposes, set the stitch length all the way to 4
(longest).
