depending on the sewing condition, such as type of fabrics,
number of layers, etc. You can correct the unevenness with
the stitch length adjusting button.

show 7.0 d5. If the left corner is lower than the right side,
press on “–” to correct it.
If the right corner is lower than the left side, press on “+” to
correct it.
The evenness can be adjusted by selecting a setting
between d1 and d9.
