Presser foot:
Automatic buttonhole foot R

NOTES:
Buttonholes 11 and 13 to 17 are sensor buttonholes.
The size of a buttonhole is automatically set by placing a
button in the rear of automatic buttonhole foot R.
The button holder of the foot takes a button size of 0.5 cm
(3/16 ”) to 2.5 cm (1”) in diameter.
It is sometimes necessary to change buttonhole size to
match certain heavy or specific fabrics and threads.
Make a test buttonhole on an extra piece of the fabric to
check your settings.
The preset width of the buttonhole is suited for ordinary
buttons.
Apply an interfacing to stretch or fine fabrics.
To sew
1 Press the up/down needle button to raise the
needle.
Attach the automatic buttonhole foot R snapping the
pin into the groove of the foot holder.
1 Groove
2 Pin
2 Pull the button holder to the back, and place the
button in it. Push it together tightly on the button.
NOTE:
If the button is extremely thick, make a test buttonhole on
an extra piece of the fabric.
If it is difficult to fit the button through the test buttonhole,
you can lengthen the buttonhole by pulling the button
holder back a little. The length of the buttonhole will be
increased.
