Satin stitch control
Most ornamoiitst stitches are
sewn with a stitch lenfrlh of
"almost zero", i.e. with a
very small materia] feed. If,
between the making- of such
stitches, the machine is used
with a larger material feed,
e. g. for normal sewing Jobs,
the resetting of the stitch
length to “ almost zero ”
causes a little trouble and
some waste of time. This de­
fect is remedied by the built-
in patented straight-sided
satin stitch stop 68 51) (Fig.
2 ) . If, for instance, you are
doing normal sewing work
with the stitch length 2 and
want to change hack to the
straight-sided satin stitch.

then swivei the stop to the left by lifting handle 69, which projects from the vertical
part of the frame, upwards until it meets with resistance, and move the stitch regulator
knob 14 (Fig. 2) upwards as far as it will go. The straight-sided satin stitch can now
be sewn without your needing to apply any hit-or-miss method. By pressing the handle
bO down, the normal position for the selection of the stitch length, forwards and back­
wards, is restored.
With a particular stitch length seams of varying thickness result according to the
thickness of the yam. The stop is thus set at the desired yarn thickness as follows:
By turning knob 68 a very little to the right, the stitch length is shortened, which
results in the seam being thicker; this is necessary when thin yarn is used. A very little
turn to the left results in a slight increase in the little length so that a seam of uniform
thickness can he achieved with thick yarn as well.
