SEWING THIN OR LIGHT WEIGHT FABRICS
When lighter pressure is required to sew satisfactorily on thin silk
or filmy material, the pressure cap should be about halfway down.
Release all the way by pressing the snap lock, A (Fig. 21), and then
press cap B down again to halfway spot. Lower the feed slightly
by pushing the “Down” button halfway down.
DARNING AND MONOGRAMMING
In order to move the fabric freely in any direction for darning,
mending
and
certain
kinds
of
free-hand
embroidery,
release
the
pressure cap, B, completely by pressing down on the snap lock, A
(Fig. 21). Push the “Down” button completely down, which drops
the feed well below the needle plate. To return feed to normal, push the
Fig.

‘UP” button down.
PREPARING TO
Have take-up lever at highest point before starting to sew. Do not try to help the feeding
by pulling the material as this may deflect the needle and cause it to break.
NEVER run machine without material under presser foot.
Place material and threads in position under the presser foot and lower the presser foot.
Turn the hand wheel toward you until the needle is at its highest point. You are now ready
to begin sewing. By having the needle at Its highest point, it is not necessary to touch the
hand wheel to start the machine. You merely press the control. The speed of the machine
is regulated by increasing or decreasing the amount of pressure exerted on the control.
