The stitch length / rolled hem adjusting dial is conveniently locat-
ed just to the left of the front cover, near the base plate (fig. A). The
dial shows two stitch-length ranges, each numbered from 1, for
the shortest stitch, to 4 for the longest. As the dial indicates, one
range is for standard sewing and one is for rolled edging or narrow
seaming.
Simply turn the dial aligning the desired setting with the indicator
on the machine. A stitch length of 3mm, or about 10 stitches per
inch is ideal for seaming and overedging most fabrics. For
overedging or seaming very lightweight fabrics, you may prefer a
shorter stitch length. When sewing heavier fabrics, you may
choose to lengthen the stitch (fig. B).
The stitch width adjusting dial is located above the stitch length dial
(fig. A). The stitch width dial displays two sets of numbers, indicat-
ing two width ranges. The larger numbers at each end of the dial,
5.5 and 7.5mm, denote the stitch width dial when the left needle is
in use. The smaller numbers, 3.0 and 5.0mm, apply when the right
needle is in use.
Adjusting the stitch width moves the upper cutting blade. It also
moves the stitch fingers further apart or closer together for com-
plete fabric support with any stitch width.
The stitch width is variable by the placement of Right and Left
needles and the stitch width dial positions. (Fig.B)
