fabrics.

stretch
–
To stretch, set the differential feed between 0.6
and 1.
–
To sew a seam, apply gentle tension to the
fabric by holding the seam lightly in front and
back of the presser foot.
PLEASE NOTE:
If amount of “stretch” is not correctly set in rela-
tion to the fabric being sewn, the fabric is apt to
shift away from the needle resulting in improp-
erly sewn overlock seam.
In such case, reset differential feed dial closer to
the center mark.
Be sure to reset the differential feed dial to
graduation “1” for normal overlock stitching.
