TOWARD

YOU

from

top

down,

by

hand.

Regulate

stitch

to

desired size (see page 21 ) and start

sewing.

Do not try to help the feeding of

the

work

by

pulling

the

material,

as this may bend the needle and

cause it to blunt or break. As the

machine

feeds

without

any

assist­

ance, it is sufficient merely to guide

the

fabric

gently,

by

hand

in

the

direction you want it be sewn.

Stop

the

machine

by

releasing

the

pressure

on

the

control

and

stopping

the

wheel

with

the

the

needle

to

its

highest

point

and

raise

the

presser

foot

by

lifting

the

foot

lever

with

either

hand.

Now

draw

the

sewn

fabric

back

and

about

eight inches and break or cut the
