Welting & Cording Application
The standard presser foot on Ultrafeed
®
sewing machines includes a 1/4"
welting tunnel that makes installing 5/32" foam piping quick, easy, and more
accurate.
If looking from the back at the upper presser foot, there is a groove (tunnel) under the foot just to
the right of the needle (
23
&
24
).
If using the LSZ-1, first put the machine in
straight stitch and center the needle bar.
Put the welting assembly under the groove
so the cord is accommodated by the groove
(
25
). The groove under the foot works to keep
the bulk of the material outside the arm of the
machine.
When sewing welting on an assembly, work
clockwise to ensure the bulk of the assembly
stays clear of the machine, i.e. out from under
the sewing machine arm (
26
).
