Stitch length
Increase or decrease the stitch length using + and -.
The number above the control shows stitch length
in mm. If lengthening a zigzag stitch or a decorative
stitch, the entire stitch will be longer. If lengthening
a satin stitch where the density can be adjusted,
the entire stitch will be longer but the density will
remain the same.

The stitch density control adjusts the density (the
closeness of the satin stitches that make up the
entire stitch). The density does not affect the actual
length of the entire stitch.
Touch + to decrease the density. Touch - to increase
the density. The number above the control shows
the distance between satin stitches in mm.
Note: This is often used with specialty threads and when
a less dense satin stitch is desired.
Balance
When sewing on special fabrics or doing a special
technique, the balance may need to be adjusted. If
a stitch can be balanced, a long touch symbol will
appear in the stitch length/density control.
To ensure a good result, start with sewing a test
sample on the fabric you will use. Long touch the
stitch length/density control to activate balance.
Use the + and - icons to adjust the forward/
backward balance of the stitch.
Note: Buttonholes can also be balanced.
