Kenmore 1020 - Special Stitch Dial; The Red Dot Setting

SPECIAL STITCH DIAL
There are certain types of utility stitches you will use often in your home
sewing. This control enables you to just dial the stitch you need for the
task at hand.
THE RED DOT SETTING
The Red Dot setting illustrated is the one used for most of your stitching-
either straight or simple zigzag. When the stitch width is set on the Red
Dot and the Special Stitch Dial on the Red Dot setting, you may straight
stitch.
For a simple zigzag stitch, adjust the stitch width control to the desired
setting, with the dial remaining on the Red Dot setting.
