Sewing
on
zippers There are various
methods
of
sewing on zippers. For skirts we
recommend the
fully
concealed zipper,
for
men's and ladies' trousers
the
semi-concealed
zipper. Various zippers are
ava
ilable.
We
recommend using a metal zipper
for
strong
fabrics such
as
denim. For all other materials
we recommend a plastic zipper.
It is important
for
all types
of
zippers
to
sew
very close to
the
edge
of
the teeth
of
the zip-
per. This
is
why
it is possible
to
insert the zip-
per
foot
either on
the
right or the left
of
the
presser foot holder.
Addit
ionally, you can set
the
needle so
that
it
enters close
to
the
edge
of
the
zipper teeth by
using one of
the
15
available needle positions.
If
the
foot
is
engaged right,
the
needle must
only be moved
to
the
right.
If
the
foot
is
enga-
ged
left, the needle must only
be
moved
to
the
left.

in
zipper
- Insert
the
zipper
foot
on
the
right-hand
side.
- Baste in
the
zipper and lay it underneath
the
presser
foot
so
that
the
teeth
of
the
zip-
per run alongside
the
foot.
-
Stitch in half
of
the
zipper, leave
the
needle
in
the
fabric,
ra
i

Now
you can continue sewing
the
seam up
to
the
end
of
the
zipper and sew
the
cross
seam.
