6.7 Manual darning
Used for darning holes or worn areas in all fabric types.
If the thread is lying on top and a poor stitch formation results, slow down the movement of the sewing
project. If there are knots on the wrong side of the fabric, move the sewing project faster. When the thread
breaks, guide the sewing project more consistently.

– The pin (1) of the Darning-/Embroidery foot should lay on the top of the needle clamp screw (2).
> Press the free motion foot (RX) on firmly from behind with your index finger and tighten the screw (3).

the darning area becomes distorted, correct with the balance.
