Regulating
the
Length
of
Stitch
the
PFAFF
28
has
its
stitch
regulator
conveniently
arranged
under
the
arm.
This device
allows
to
regulate
the
length
of stitch
and
to
reverse
the
direction
of feeding
for
tying
off
seams.
The
stitch
regulator
lever
is
provided
with
a
large
thumb
screw
A
(see
photo
13)
which
serves
to
set
and
limit the
length
of
stitch
as
desired.
A scale
conspicuously
arranged
under
the
arm
indicates
the
stith
length
in
millimeters.
If the
pointer
of
the
stitch
regulator
points
at zero,
the
machine
does
not
feed
at
all.
When
the
lever
is
pulled
toward
the operator,
the machine
will feed
forward,
the
length
of
stitch
being
indicated
by
the
pointer
on
the
scale.
If, after
setting
the stitch
regulator
lever
at
the
length
of
stitch
desired,
the
screw
A
is turned
inwardly
as
far
as it
will
go
and
the lever
is
then
pushed
over from
the
operator,
the
machine
will feed
reverse
making
stitches
of about
the
same
length
as
for
forward
sewing.
Note:
Use
reverse
feeding
only
for
tying
off
the
ends
of
seams.
