As two different widths of bindh-g of contrast­
ing color can be fed through the binder at
the same time, attractive binding and piping
effects can be produced in one operation.
T O A T T A C H T H E B I N D E R
Raise needle to its highest position, then attach
binder to presser bar in place of presser foot.
See that needle enters center of needle hole.
CAUTION: When this binder is used, do not
raise hinged extension of cloth plate high
enough to strike binder, as this would tend
to distort and damage binder. Before storing
machine, binder must be removed to avoid
damage.
T O I N S E R T B I N D I N G I N B I N D E R
Cut all binding to a long point to the left, as
shown in Fig. 46.
Folded Bias Binding must be inserted in
slot or slots of corresponding sizes. See Fig.
49.
Unfolded or Raw Edge Bias Binding
must be inserted in open end of scroll. See
Fig. 47.
After inserting pointed end of binding in
binder, push it through until full width of
binding is under needle.
Guide binding by means of two upright pins,
as shown in Figs. 47 and 49.

Place edge to be bound as far to the right as
it will go in center slot of scroll, as shown in
Fig. 47, and draw it back under binder foot.
Lower binder by means of presser foot lifter
and commence to sew. Keep material well
within center slot of scroll so that edge will .
be caught in binding.
T O A D J U S T B I N D E R
To bring the inner edge of the binding closer
to stitching, move scroll C2, Fig. 47 to right
by means of lug B2, Fig. 47. This is the usual
adjustment when binding straight edges.
When binding curves, move scroll to left to
bring inner edge of binding farther from
stitching and allow for sweep of curve.
