foot. Remove the thread chain carefully from
the swiveling stitch width latch 22. Pull the
thread chain forwards and clamp it under
the spring.
Butt the fabric up against the front of the
needle(s). If necessary, make an approx. 1.5”

using a pair of scissors. Lower the presser
foot and start sewing. The thread chain pulls
automatically into the inside of the seam.

This feature cannot be used for either the
2-thread safety-stitch seam, the 4-thread
safety-stitch seam, the 2-thread chainstitch
or for the rolled hem.
