Bernina ACTIVA 135 S - Manual (Page 41)

Selected practical stitches: Buttonholes 40
Test sewing
• always test sew on the fabric and stabilizer you intend to use
• select the buttonhole type you intend to use
• sew the buttonhole in the same direction on the fabric (with or
against the grain)
•
cut the buttonhole open
•
push the button through and adjust the buttonhole length if
necessary
Corrections
To adjust the bead width:
• alter the stitch width
• altered stitch widths can be deleted by pressing the «clr/del»-
button
Altering the stitch length:
•
any alterations to the stitch length affect both beads (denser or
less dense)
• altered stitch length can be deleted by pressing the «clr/del»-
button
Balance for automatic/manual buttonholes
•
any balance alterations to the 6-step manual and auto length
buttonholes affects both beads identically because they are sewn
in the same direction
If a buttonhole is to be sewn at
right angles to a seam, we
recommend the use of the but-
tonhole leveler. Insert the plate
from behind between the
fabric and the foot up to and
over the thicker area.
TIP
Note:
When all buttonholes have
been sewn, return balance to
the normal setting!
