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.
