Sewing Heavyweight Fabrics
The machine can sew fabrics up to 6 mm (approx.
1/4 inch) thick. If the thickness of a seam causes
sewing to occur at an angle, help guide the fabric
by hand and sew on the downward slope.
• Do not forcefully push fabrics more than 6 mm
(approx. 1/4 inch) thick through the machine.
This may cause the needle to break and cause
injury.
• Thicker fabrics require a larger needle.
