The width of the zigzag stitch is regulated by the zigzag
width dial (Fig. 24). By turning the zigzag width dial,
the zig-zag width indicator appearing in the zigzag
width window, will move from 0~4 and the width of
the zigzag stitch will increase accordingly. In order to
revert to the previously used zigzag wddth, for ex­
ample, for sewing on buttons, making buttonholes,
tacking, etc., use the twa> stoppers hw'ated above the
zigzag width wdndow. Untighten the stoppers by turn­
ing the lock screw to the left. I'he stoppers can be
moved freely and set at the desired stitch width number.
Fighten the stoppers and fix them at the desired stitch
width number by turning the lock screw to the right. Fig. 24
The stitch length dial regulaters the length of the zigzag stitch tor zigzag sewing in the same
manner as for straight sewing (See page 13). To produce the "Satin Stitch” which is the closest
zigzag stitch, set the stitch length dial close to 0 and adjust the pushbutton drop feed (feed dog
position regulator) according to the material you are sewing. (See page 9)
