How do I start and finish locking a stitch?
• You will want to make sure that your sewing machine is on a
sturdy work surface before starting any set up or maintenance
of ........................... your machine.
• Start on your material about ¼” from where you would normally
start.
• Sew to where you would normally start, then turn your material
around and sew back through the previous holes and continue on.
• When you are to the end of your stichline, lift your presser foot
and move your material back, to line up your needle with the
previous hole and then repeat.

• Use a piece of the material to be sewn.
• Insert the sample material under the
Presser Foot and sew a couple stitches.
• Observe the test material during stitching.
- If the material is not advanced by the
Presser Foot, the pressure needs to be
increased.
- If the presser foot leaves a deep
impression on the material, the pressure
needs to be decreased.
To determine the proper pressure for
the material to be sewn, perform the
following test.
To increase the Pressure.
• Turn the Presser Foot Adjustor clockwise
. Re-test as before and
adjust until the material is advanced by the Presser Foot without slipping.
To decrease the Pressure.
• Turn the Presser Foot Adjustor counterclockwise
. Re-test and
adjust until the material is advanced by the Presser Foot without
leaving a deep impression.
