Needle thread tension
To get perfect sewing results, the needle
and bobbin thread tensions must be
perfectly tuned to each other. The normal
setting for utility stitches is in the range
of 4-5.
Check the tension with a wide zigzag
stitch. The threads must be interlaced
between the two fabric pieces.
If the needle thread tension is too high the
threadsareinterlacedabovethetopfabric.
If the needle thread tension is too low, the
threads are interlaced below the lower
fabric.
The adjustment of the needle thread
tension is described on page 22.

Straight stitch
StitchGisthebasicstraightstitch.The
stitch length can be increased up to 6 mm.
It is easier to do some sewing jobs by
changing the needle position, e.g. top-
stitching a collar or sewing in a zipper.
You can select up to 15 different needle
positions.
Please ensure that the needle is at its
highest position when adjusting the
needle position.
Zigzag stitch

Overlock stitch
What is an overlock stitch?
Forstretchfabrics,theselect™ models
offeroverlockstitcheswhichsewtwo
fabriclayerstogetherandovercast
simultaneously. They are more elastic
thannormalseams,verydurableand
quicklysewn.
Tip: We recommend using blindhem stitch foot
No. 3 when sewing overlock seams. It guides
particularly well and prevents the seam from
puckering even on wide seams. Also remember
to set the red marker on the foot to the right
position. This to guide the fabric edge.
Open overlock stitch (K)
With this stitch, thicker fabrics and fabrics
which do not fray too much can be sewn
together perfectly.
Tip: Make sure that the needle sews to the
right of the fabric just over the edge and not
in it.
Closed overlock stitch (I)
Theclosedoverlockstitchisperfectfor
sewing jersey knits. You can also sew
sleevecuffsandknitcollarswhichare
well-sewn and long-lasting.
Tip: Ensure that the sleeve cuff is stretched
while it is being sewn.
Remember!
Whenoverlocking,ifyouselectstitch
width other than 5
, make sure the
needle does not strike the bar of sewing
foot 3.

for some fabrics, e.g. silk, organza and
viscose,itisnecessarytousestabilizerto
preventthefabricfromcontractingwhile
sewing.
To produce beautiful seams, embroidering
or darning threads are ideal.
Mark the starting point of the buttonhole
either with a magic pen or dress pin, and
alwayssewasamplebuttonholerst.
Note: Before starting any buttonhole, always
push the guide of the buttonhole foot fully to
the front, i.e. so that the red arrow is at the
rst red mark. The red marks are arranged at
an interval of 0.5 cm. They are a guide when
determining the length of the buttonhole.

To sew especially durable buttonholes,
