32 – SEWING
Using Guide Lines
The guide lines on the top of the front cover help you to po-
sition the fabric while sewing. The numbers/lines indicate the
distance from the right needle position in inches.
The cutting width between the right needle position and the
upper cutter when in the standard position is 3.5 mm.
Start Sewing
When the machine is completely threaded, close the front cov-
er and bring all of the threads over the stitch plate and slightly
to the left under the presser foot.
Ensure that the upper cutter moves against the stationary cut-
ter correctly by turning the hand wheel slowly toward you. If
the upper cutter blade does not move correctly, check if there
are any fabric or waste thread stuck between the blades.
Hold the threads and apply a slight tension.
Turn the hand wheel toward you 2 or 3 complete turns to start
making a thread chain. Check if all threads wind around the
stitch finger of the stitch plate. If the threads do not wind
around the finger, make sure each thread is threaded correctly.
A. Continue holding the thread chain while pressing the foot
control. Sew until the chain is 2″-3″ (5-8cm) long.
Place fabric under the front of the presser foot and sew a
test sample. Guide the fabric slightly with your left hand
while sewing. Do not pull on the fabric as this may deflect
the needle, causing it to break.
B. When you reach the end of the fabric, continue sewing
while drawing the finished fabric gently backwards and to
the left. This is called chaining off. It prevents the threads
from coming undone and prepares for next sewing.
C. Cut the threads with the thread cutter as illustrated, leaving
a thread chain approximately 2″-3″ (5-8cm) long at the end
of the fabric.
Pin Placement (D)
Insert straight pins to the left of the presser foot. The pins will
be easy to remove and are away from the cutters.
Sewing over pins will damage and might destroy the edge of the cut-
ters.
