Zigzag stitch
Choose the zigzag stitch by turning stitch selector dial to either D, E, F or
K. You can adjust the stitch length by choosing the slots in between D, E, F
and K. The thread tension should be from 1-5. Make sure the presser foot is
properly attached (page 21).
1. Move the needle upwards by turning the hand wheel towards you. Lift
up the presser foot and feed the fabric underneath. Turn the hand wheel
towards you to move the needle down to the place on the fabric where
you want to start sewing. Lower the presser foot. Make sure that the top
thread and bobbin thread are pulled towards the back of the machine
under the presser foot.
2. Press the foot control carefully and start sewing.
3. If you want to change direction, at a corner for example, leave the
needle in the fabric. Then lift the presser foot and turn the fabric round
the needle. Lower the presser foot and continue sewing.
4. When you have nished, lift the fabric and pull it about 15 cm
backwards. Cut the threads with the thread cutter, leaving them the right
length for when you start sewing the next seam.
TIP! Try sewing on a scrap of fabric rst to adjust any settings if necessary
before using the “proper” fabric.
