- Pull out about 15 cm (6 inches) of thread towards the back of the plate and attach the bobbin cover plate. (C)
Attention:
Turn the power switch to off (“O”) before inserting or removing the bobbin.
Threading the Upper Thread
This is a simple operation but it is important to carry out correctly as by
not doing so.
-
Start by raising the needle to its highest point (1), and continue turning the handwheel* counterclockwise until the needle just slightly begins to descend. You must raise the presser foot to release the tension discs.
Note:
For safety, it is strongly suggested you turn off the power before
threading. -
Lift up the spool pin. Place the spool of thread on the holder with the thread coming off the spool from the back as shown and place appropriate spool holder next to the spool. For small thread spools, place small side of spool holder next to spool. (2)
-
Draw thread from spool through the upper thread guide (3) and pulling thread through the pre-tension spring as illustrated. (4)
-
Thread tension module by leading thread down right channel. (5) During this process it is helpful to hold the thread between the spool and thread guide, as this will help to seat the thread between the tension discs.
-
At the top of this movement pass thread from right to left through the slotted eye of the take-up lever and then downwards again. (6)
-
ow pass the thread behind the horizontal thread guide, and then behind the thin wire needle clamp guide (7) and then down to the needle which should be threaded from front to back.
-
Pull about 6 – 8 inches of thread under the presser foot to the rear beyond the needle eye. Trim thread to length with built-in thread cutter. (8)
-
Never turn the handwheel away from you as this may cause the timing to be disrupted. Always turn the handwheel counterclockwise (towards you).
Automatic Needle Threader
- Thread upper tension of machine up to the thin wire in front of the needle clamp.
- Raise the needle to its highest position.
- Set the Pattern Selector Dial (see item # 13 on page 2 of the manual) to Straight Stitch.
- Set Stitch Width Dial (see item # 11 on page 2 of the manual) to “0”.
- Set Three Needle Position Dial (see item # 9 on page 2 of the manual) to center position.
- Lower the needle threader (A) as far down as it will go, then push it back gently so that the hook inside the threader will slip into the eye of the needle.
- The threader automatically swings to the threading position (B).
- Pass the thread under thread guide (C), from left to right.
- Pass the thread in front of the needle around the hook (D) from bottom to top.
- Release lever (A), by swinging it away from you & then pushing it back up to the resting position.
- Pull the thread through the needle eye.
Attention:
Turn the power switch to off (“O”)!
The needle threader is designed to work best with a size 14 needle. Your
machine is equipped with a standard size 14 needle at the factory.
Raising the Bobbin Thread
Hold the upper thread with the left hand. Turn the handwheel (1) towards you
(counterclockwise) lowering, then raising the needle.
Note:
- If it is difficult to raise the bobbin thread, check to make sure the thread is not trapped by the hinged cover or the Removable Extension Table.
- Gently pull on the upper thread to bring the bobbin thread up through the needle plate hole. (2)
- Lay both threads to the back under the presser foot. (3)
Thread Toncinn
Upper thread tension
Basic thread tension setting: “4”. (1)
To increase the tension, turn the dial to the next number up.
To reduce the tension, turn the dial to the next number down.
- A. Normal thread tension for straight stitch sewing.
- B. Thread tension too loose for straight stitch sewing. Turn dial to higher number.
- C. Thread tension too tight for straight stitch sewing. Turn dial to lower number.
- D. Normal thread tension for zig zag and decorative sewing.
- Correct thread tension is when a small amount of the upper thread appears on the bottom side of fabric. If the thread is looping or birdnesting on the underside of the fabric, this is an indication that the upper machine tension is not threaded correctly.
Lower thread tension
The bobbin tension has been set correctly at the factory, so you do not need
to adjust it.
Please note:
- Proper tension setting is important for strong seams.
- There is no single tension setting appropriate for all stitch functions, thread or fabric.
- A balanced tension (identical stitches both top and bottom) is usually only desirable for straight stitch construction sewing.
- 90% of all sewing will be between “3” and “5”.
- For zig zag and decorative sewing stitch functions, thread tension should generally be less than for straight stitch sewing.
- For all decorative sewing you will always obtain a nicer stitch and less fabric puckering when the upper thread appears on the bottom side of your fabric.
- If the thread is looping or birdnesting on the top of the fabric, this is an indication that the bobbin thread has not been threaded correctly.
How to Choose Your Pattern
The diagram on this page displays the stitch patterns available on the
machine.
Stitches in the top of the diagram are indicated on the pattern selector dial
in gray. To select the patterns indicated with the gray color, turn the
pattern selector dial. (e)
For top row stitches B, C, D, E, I, J, and K follow these steps:
-
Set the Three Needle Position Dial (b) to the Center.
-
Set the Stitch Width Dial (c) to 6. This will give you the widest stitch. If you would like a narrower stitch, set the Stitch Width Dial to between 1 and 5.
-
Set the Stitch Length Dial (d) to 2. You can adjust the density by moving the Stitch Length Dial to 1 to make the stitching closer, or towards 4 to make it longer.
For top row stitches F, G, and H follow these steps: -
Set the Three Needle Position Dial (b) to the Center.
-
Set the Stitch Width Dial (c) to 6. This will give you the widest stitch. If you would like a narrower stitch, set the Stitch Width Dial to between 1 and 5.
-
Set the Stitch Length Dial (d) to 1. You can adjust the density by moving the Stitch Length Dial to 0.5 to make the stitching closer.
Further instructions for setting the stitch width & the stitch length dials
can be found on page 28.
To obtain the other patterns, turn the stitch length dial to “S1” or “S2”,
select the pattern desired with pattern selector dial, and adjust the stitch
width with the stitch width dial.
The pattern selector dial may be turned in either direction.
- a. Reverse sewing lever
- b. Three needle position dial
- c. Stitch width dial
- d. Stitch length dial
- e. Pattern selector dial
Three Needle Position Dial
The needle position can be altered with the “Three needle position dial”. For
normal work, the needle position in the middle. For edge stitching or sewing
parallel lines of topstitching, select needle position left or right. For twin
needle stitching, needle position is middle.
In order to set the Three Needle Position Dial (See item # 9 on page 2 of the
manual) to the left, in the center or to the right, the Stitch Width Dial must
be set to “0” position.
- a. Straight
- b. Zig-zag
- L. Left Needle Position
- M. Middle Needle Position
- R. Right Needle Position
Stitch Width Dial & Stitch Length Dial
The function of stitch width dial
When doing a zig zag or a decorative pattern you can alter the width from 1mm
to 6mm. To obtain a very narrow stitch, set the dial to 1, to obtain the
maxinum 6mm width, set the dial to 6. When the dial is set to 0, you will
obtain a straight stitch. (1)
The stitch width dial (see item # 11 on page 2 of your manual) is also the
control for the straight stitch infinite needle position. To use this function
your Pattern Selector Dial (see item # 13 on page 2 in the manual) must be set
at Straight Stitch. For an infinite needle position, first set the Three
Needle Position Dial so that the needle is positioned to the right and then by
moving the stitch width dial between “0” and “6”, you can position the needle
where you require it.
Function of stitch length dial while zig-zag stitching
Set the pattern selector dial to zig zag or any other decorative pattern.
The density of zig zag or decorative stitches increases as the setting of the
stitch length dial approaches “0”. The smaller the number the closer, or
denser the stitches will be.
Standard zigzag stitches are usually achieved at “3” or below. (2) Dense zig-
zag stitches are called satin stitches. (2)
Function of stitch length dial for when straight stitching
For straight stitch sewing, turn the Pattern Selector Dial to the straight
stitch setting. Turn the Stitch Length Dial, and the length of the individual
stitches will decrease as the dial approached “0”. The length of the
individual stitches will increase as the dial approaches “4”. Generally
speaking, use a longer stitch length when sewing heavier weight fabrics or
when using a thicker needle or thread. Use a shorter stitch length when sewing
lighter weight fabrics or when using a finer needle or thread.
- The standard setting for sewing a seam is between 2 and 3.
- For basting purposes, set the stitch length all the way to 4 (longest).
Sewing Straight Stitch
To begin sewing, set the machine for a straight stitch. (1)
Set the stitch length to between 2 and 3.
Place the fabric under the presser foot with the fabric edge lined up with the
desired seam guide line on the needle plate. (2)
Lower the presser foot lifter, and then step on the foot controller to start
sewing. (3)
-
Reverse Sewing
To secure the beginning and the end of a seam, press down the reverse sewing
lever (A). Sew a few reverse stitches.
Release the lever and the machine will sew forward again. (1) -
Removing the Work
Turn the handwheel toward you (counterclockwise) to bring the thread take up
lever to its highest position, raise the presser foot and remove work behind
the needle and presser foot. (2) -
Cutting the Thread
Pull the threads under and behind the presser foot. Guide the threads to
the side of the face plate and into thread cutter (B). Pull threads down to
cut. (3)
Choosing Stretch Stitch Patterns
The stretch stitch patterns are indicated with blue and red colors on the
pattern selector dial. To select these stitches, turn the pattern selector
dial to the desired pattern. Then, turn the stitch length dial to the
indicator marked “S1” or “S2”.
Though there are severall stretch patterns, here are two examples:
Straight Stretch Stitch (1)
Set the pattern selector dial to .
Set the stitch width dial to “1”.
Used to add triple reinforcement to stretch and hardwearing seams.
The machine sews two stitches forward and one stitch backwards.
Ric Rac (2)
Set the pattern selector dial to ” ”
Set the stitch length dial to “S1” or “S2”.
Adjust the stitch width dial to between “3” and “6”.
Ric rac stitch is suitable for firm fabrics like denim, corduroy, poplin,
duck, etc.
Blind Hem
For hems on curtains, trousers, skirts, etc.
Blind hem for stretch fabrics.
Blind hem for firm fabrics. Set the stitch length dial with the range shown on
