dial
The Bernina 2500DCET is equipped with a one dial stitch
selection function. The basic tension settings for sixteen
different stitches are distributed over eight positions. The
position desired can be selected by simply turning the stitch
selection dial. An LED display indicates the selected position.
The positions A, C, D and E are adjusted for overlock stitches
using standard overlock thread.
The stitches on Position B are the same as position A but with
pre-set tensions for woolly nylon or a similar decorative
thread in the loopers.
Position F is pre-set for cover stitch, G for chain stitch using
all-purpose overlock thread and H for top & bottom cover
stitch.
