DARNING OR EMBROIDERING

While darning and embroidery can be done on the machine when threaded for regular sewing, the use of feed cover plate Y, No. 32622, is recommended, as movable contact with the feed in some cases might interfere with the handling of the work.

Don not change the adjustment of the feed dog in any way, as it is essential that its position should remain as originally fixed.

When the feed cover plate Y is used, it is necessary to lead the needle thread through the eye in the thread regulator X at the left of the tension discs and not under the thread regulator. With this exception, the threading is the same as for regular sewing (see Fig. 14, page 13).

Remove the presser foot and let down the presser bar lifter to restore the tension on the needle thread, which is released and inoperative when the lifter is raised.
