Sewing
General information
• Switch the main switch
22
on.
• When changing the stitch type, always move the needle to its
highest position. Push the fabric suffi ciently far under the presser
foot
26
. Make sure there is a length of around 10 cm of the upper
and lower thread behind the needle.
• Lower the presser foot lever
19
. While holding the thread with
your left hand, turn the hand wheel
26
towards you and lower
the needle to the point on the fabric where you want to start
sewing.
• Press the foot pedal – the more pressure you apply to the foot
pedal, the faster the machine runs. While sewing, guide the
fabric gently by hand. Sew a few reverse stitches by actuating the
reverse lever
8
, to fi x the fi rst stitches in place.
TIP
If you are not sure whether the thread tension or stitch type, for
example, is correct, test the settings on a swatch.
The material runs automatically under the presser foot
26
: it should
not be held fast or pulled by hand, but only be gently guided so that the
stitches go in the desired direction.
Selecting the right needle
NOTICE!
Risk of damage!
Using a defective needle can cause damage to the material.
− Replace defective needles immediately.
The number indicating the needle thickness is written on the shaft.
The higher the number, the thicker the needle.
Raising and lowering the presser foot
You raise and lower the presser foot
26
by raising and lowering the
presser foot lever
19
accordingly.
The presser foot
26
can be raised slightly to provide extra room when
sewing thick fabrics.
