Correcting Deformed Stitch Patterns

The sewing results of stretch stitch patterns may vary 

depending on sewing conditions, such as sewing speed, 

fabric type, number of layers etc.

If stretch stitch patterns are deformed, correct them by 

turning the feed balancing dial with the screwdriver.

If the pattern is compressed, turn the dial in the direction 

of “+”.

If the pattern is drawn out, turn the dial in the direction of 

“–”.
