Correcting Distorted Stretch Patterns

The sewing results of the stretch stitch patterns may vary depending upon the sewing conditions, such as sewing speed, type of the fabric, number of layers etc. Always make a test sewing on a scrap piece of the fabric that you wish to use. If decorative stretch stitch patterns, letters, numbers or the Auto Buttonhole stitch are distorted, correct it with the Feed Balancing Dial.

NOTES:

In normal sewing, set the Feed Balancing Dial to the neutral position, i.e. the Groove on the Dial is centered with the Standard setting Mark.

Turn the Feed Balancing Dial with a coin.

If the pattern is compressed, turn the dial toward “+”. If the pattern is drawn out, turn the dial toward “–”.

Letters and numbers

If the pattern is compressed, turn the dial toward “+”. If the pattern is drawn out, turn the dial toward “–”.

Correcting stitch balance of the Auto Buttonhole

The stitch balance of the right and left rows on the Auto Buttonhole may vary depending on conditions of sewing. If the stitches are not balanced, correct the unevenness with the Feed Balancing Dial.

If the right row is denser, turn the dial toward “–”. If the left row is denser, turn the dial toward “+”.

NOTE:

Return the Feed Balancing Dial to its neutral position when sewing is finished.
