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)
The stitch width dial (see item # 11 on page 2 of your manual) is also
the control for the straight stitch infinite needle position. To use this
function your Pattern Selector Dial (see item # 13 on page 2 in the
manual) must be set at Straight Stitch. For an infinite needle position,
first set the Three Needle Position Dial so that the needle is
positioned to the right and then by moving the stitch width dial
between "0" and "6", you can position the needle where you require it.
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
(longest).
