Feed-dog and fabric feed

Feed-dog and stitch length

With each stitch the feed-dog moves forward by one step.

The length of this step is determined by the stitch length selected. With an extremely short stitch length, the steps are also short. The fabric moves under the foot quite slowly, even at full sewing speed. Buttonholes, satin stitch and decorative stitches are all sewn with a very short stitch length.

Important

Let the fabric feed evenly!

Pulling or pushing will result in

Holding back will result in
