4-6. Adjusting the stitch length
1. Push the dial lock lever (1) up until it clicks to release the
lock.
2. Turn the stitch length dial (2) clockwise or counter-
clockwise so that the desired stitch length is at the upper-
most position on the dial.
The larger the number, the longer the stitch length will
be.
(The numbers on the dial are for use as a guide. The
length of the finished stitches may vary depending on
the type and thickness of material being sewn. Adjust
while looking at the finished stitches.)
When turning the stitch length dial (2) from a larger
setting to a smaller setting, it will be easier to turn the
dial if the reverse lever (3) is pushed to the halfway-
down position.
3. Push the dial lock lever (1) down firmly to lock it.
* Check that the stitch length dial (2) does not rotate.
4-7. Using the thread wiper (-4[][] specifications)
Press the thread wiper key (1) on the operation panel so that
the indicator illuminates. If this is done, the thread wiper (2)
will operate after the thread is trimmed.
4-8. Using the knee lifter
The presser foot (2) can be raised by pressing the knee lifter
plate (1).
