Adjusting Points

The adjusting lever sets the ruffler for gathers or

pleats. The number 1 space setting is for gathers

and places fullness at every stitch. Numbers 6 and

12 are space settings for pleats, spacing them 6 or

12 stitches apart. The star is for straight stitching
and is used when grouping gathers or pleats.

The adjusting finger is used only for pleating

and affects the width of the pleat. It is thrown out

of action by bringing it out of contact with the
adjusting screw.

The adjusting screw regulates the fullness of

gathers or pleats. When turned inward to its limit
with the adjusting finger in place, the attachment
is set for its deepest pleat. When turned outward

to its limit, with the adjusting finger out of action,
the ruffler gives only a hint of fullness.
