NARROW
HEMMER
With
the
needle
at its
highest
position,
replace
regular
presser
foot
with
narrow
hemmer
foot.
Set
the
blind
stitch
lever
to “M”
position.
Set
the
Z-B
dial
at
“0” position
for
straight
stitched
hem
or
at
number
“3”
for
zigzag
stitched
hem.
Set
stitch
length
to
suit.
For
general
hemming,
cut
the
right
corner
of
the
material
to
be
sewn
diagonally,
and
prepare
the
material
so
that
it
can
be
rolled
easily.
Then
insert
it
into
the
scroll
of
hemmer.
Pull
Out
the
material
to
the
point
just
beneath
the
needle,
so
that
it
can
continue
being
rolled
in
the
scroll.
Then
lower
the
presser
bar
and
sew
2 or
3 stitches
slowly
and
carefully,
holding
the
beginning
of
the
hem
between
your
right
thumb
and
forefinger
and
sew
in
order
that
the
edge
of
material
can
be
scrolled
nicely
by
adjusting,
and
the
sewing
result
will
be
as
given
in
the
illustra
tion.
Be
careful
not
to
feed
too
much
or
too
little
material
into
the
hemmer.
(Fig.

When
hemming
and
sewing
on
lace
are
required
in
one
operation,
proceed
to
make
a hem
in the
same
manner
as
explained
above.
Insert
edge
of
lace
or
trimming
(be
sure
the
right
side
is
down)
into
the
slot
on
the right
side
of
the
hemmer.
