Folded binding should be inserted in the outside slot of the Binder, as

shown in Fig. 72. The Binder is adjusted and operated in the same manner
as when using unfolded binding. One-half inch braid or ribbon, having a

finished edge, may also be used in the same manner, because binding passing

through the outer slot is turned only once by the attachment.

The Adjustment and Operation of the Binder.

The edge of the material to be bound should be held well within the

centre slot of the scroll. If the material is allowed to slip away from the
scroll when near the needle, the edge will not be caught in the binding. With

a little practice it is quite easy to hold the edge in the scroll.

Various

materials

and

conditions

require

different

adjustments

of

the

Binder to bring the stitching close to the edge. A whder adjustment of the
Binder is required when binding curves than is necessary when binding a

straight edge.

To adjust the Binder, for the stitching to be at the desired distance from

the edge of the binding, loosen screw, as shown in Fig. 73, and move the scroll
to the right for a narrower adjustment and to the left for a wider adjustment.
Care should be taken to see that the screw is well tightened after making an

adju.stment. To become perfectly familiar with the adjustment of the Binder,

practice is necessary.
