Adjusting Stitch Placement

Before moving needle position and stitch

width selectors make sure needle is above

fabric.

ADJUSTING WIDTH OF DESIGN

To produce a Flexi-Stitch pattern, the
stitch width selector must be moved
from the straight-stitch setting 0, to a
setting from 2 to 5. The higher the

number, the wider the stitch will be.

ADJUSTING STITCH PLACEMENT

Flexi-Stitch patterns can be sewn in

either L (left), C (center) or R (right)
needle positions. Center needle position

C is recommended.

Adjusting Needle-Thread Tension

ADJUSTING NEEDLE-THREAD
TENSION

Make a test sample with the fabric,

thread, and presser foot you plan to use
so that you can adjust tension to suit the
stitch pattern you have chosen.

For your test sample, set the tension dial

on 3 or 4. Notice the stitching; if the

fabric puckers, decrease tension by turning
the dial to a lower number. Sew at

moderate speed.
