Reverse sewing
Reverse stitching is used to secure the end of seams and to reinforce the parts that need it. When you reach the end of the
seam, press down the reverse stitch lever in the opposite direction and press the foot control lightly. Sew a few reverse
stitches. When you release the lever, the machine will resume forward sewing (A).
Undo stitch
Turn the handwheel towards you until the thread take-up lever is in the highest position. Lift the presser foot and pull the
fabric away from you.
Cutting the thread
Hold the threads behind the presser foot. Guide them with both hands into the slot (B) at the back of the presser foot bar
and press down to cut the thread. You can also use the thread cutter on the side of the machine.
Selecting the right needle, fabric, and thread
The fabric to be sewn determines the choice of needle and thread. The following tables are a practical guide to needle and thread selection.
Always refer to them before starting a new sewing project. Make sure to use the same size and type of thread in the bobbin and the top thread.

fabric to be used.

4. STARTING TO SEW
STRAIGHT STITCHING AND NEEDLE POSITION
- Turn the pattern selection knob (4) until the stitch display (3) shows the straight
stitch position (A).
- In general, the thicker the fabric, thread, and needle, the longer the stitch should
be.
- Choose the needle position (from the middle to the right) by changing the
position of the stitch width adjustment knob (1). The positions of this knob
range from 0 to 5.
ZIGZAG STITCHING
Set the pattern selection knob to position B.
1. Function of the stitch width adjustment knob
The maximum width of the zigzag stitch is 5. However, it can be reduced in any pattern. The stitch
width increases as you move the knob from 0 to 5. If you are sewing with a twin needle, do not select
a width greater than 2.5 (1).
2. Stitch length adjustment knob function while performing zigzag stitches
The zigzag stitch density increases as the stitch length adjustment knob setting approaches 0. To
achieve clean zigzag stitches, we recommend that you do not choose a length longer than 2.5 (2).
SATIN STITCHING
When the stitch length is set between 0 and 1, the stitches will be close together, which will produce the satin stitch, used to make buttonholes
and decorative stitches.
SEWING THIN FABRICS
If you are sewing very thin fabrics, it is recommended that you use an interlining on the reverse side of the fabric.
BLIND HEM/LINGERIE STITCHING
This stitch is suitable for hems, curtains, trousers, skirts, etc.
The most suitable settings for this stitch are as follows:
a. Stitch width 3 to 5.
