THE RUFFLER

Occasionally apply a drop of oil to parts in movable contact.

This attachment offers a simple and effective way to make gathered and pleated ruffles.

Ruffles may be made separately or make and applied at the same time.

The ruffler is attached to the machine in place of the presser foot.

Adjusting Points

1.The adjusting lever sets the ruffler for gathers or pleats. The number 1 space setting is for gathers, and places fullness at every stitch. Numbers 6 and

12are space settings for pleats, spacing them either 6 or 12 inches apart. The star is for plain stitching, and is used when grouping gathers or pleats.

2.The adjusting finger is used only for pleating and affects the width of the pleat. It is thrown out of action by bringing it out of contact with the adjusting screw located at the right of the ruffler.
