1. Measure the distance between the holes and set the appropriate
stitch width with the stitch width dial. For example, if the distance
between the holes is 1.5 mm (1/16"), set the stitch width to “1.5”.
2. Attach the button sewing foot.
3. Place the darning plate on the needle plate.
(When the machine is equipped with a drop feed lever, lower the
feed dogs by setting the drop feed lever to the up position.)
4. Place a button between the foot and the fabric and make sure that
the needle enters the holes without hitting the button. If it hits, see
step 1.
5. At a slow speed, sew approximately 10 stitches.
6. Remove the material from the machine. Cut the upper and lower
threads and tie the two threads at the back of the fabric.
