Adjustments and settings
Settings and practical sewing
Presser foot pressure
The presser foot pressure is factory adjusted to a medium setting.
Should you wish to adjust it, simply turn the knob in the direction de-
sired:
Position of knob for normal pressure (A)
More pressure: for thick or stiff fabrics such as denim, tweed, firm linen
(B)
Less pressure: for lightweight or sheer fabrics and knits (C).
Thread breakage during sewing
Sew off immediately at an angle and remove the work. Re-thread. If the
lower looper thread has broken, cut off both needle threads at the nee-
dles and remove the thread. First thread the looper then the needles.
Start sewing again about 2-3 cm in front of where the thread broke.
Unpicking seams
Using sharp scissors, cut the loops (C). Pull the needle thread (D) and
the stitches will come undone.
