#102582
1.
Attach the binder to the sewing machine
by inserting the two screws with
the washer
D
through the binder slot
C
(not the 3 holes above the slot) into
the two holes in the bed of the machine. Screw placement in the binder slot
will vary from machine to machine.
2.
Adjust the feeder mouth
A
from front to back using the two screws next to
the feeder mouth. Position the binder as close as possible to the front of
the presser foot without touching the foot or feed dog
F
. The binder should
not come into contact with the foot or the feed dog when sewing. Adjust the
stitch position close to the inside edge of the binding by moving the feeder
mouth from left to right using the large thumb screw
E
.
3.
G
Feed proper-sized binding
into the wide end of the feeder mouth and use
a screwdriver blade to pull the binding completely through the slot. Sew off
a small portion of binding to test stitch position.
4.
Insert the raw fabric edge
that needs binding into the crease of the binding
as it exits the feeder mouth. Feed the material tightly into the crease of the
binding and sew for a perfectly finished edge.
TIP:
For lighter fabrics like Dacron tape, hold your finger in front of the binder to
help keep the fabric from creeping
