MENDING A BROKEN SEAM
1. Set stitch control knob to desired stitch
length. For most mending, the "long stitch"
setting is acceptable.
Turn hand wheel toward you to raise nee-
dle to highest position.
2. Lift presser foot using presser bar lifter.
Make sure that both needle (top) thread
and bobbin (lower) thread are pulled
straight back behind needle about 4".
3. Position area to be mended under presser
foot. Turn handwheel toward you to lower
needle into existing stitches in fabric.
Lower presser foot.
4. Step on foot switch and machine will start
to mend the broken seam. Continue until
new stitches overlap existing stitches by
about an inch and then step off foot switch.
5. Raise presser foot using presser bar lifter
and pull fabric straight back. Cut both
threads about 4" from edge of fabric.
NOTE: If it is difficult to pull thread toward
back without noticeably bending the
needle, a slight backward and forward
movement of the handwheel will
make it easier to remove the fabric.
