Selecting Stretch Stitch Patterns
When sewing stretch stitches, set the stitch length dial at “S.S.”
Stitch Length Dial
Place the desired number at the setting mark by turning the stitch length dial.
• The higher the number, the longer the stitch length.
• “ ” is the correct setting for buttonhole stitching.
• Adjust the stitch length dial in the 0.3 to 4 range when you sew the zigzag stitch.
• Place S.S. at the setting mark to sew the stretch stitch pattern correctly.
• If forward and reverse feeding becomes unbalanced due to the type of fabric, adjust the
balance as follows:
• If patterns are compressed, turn the dial toward “+”.
• If patterns are drawn out, turn the dial toward “–”.
