^ Drawing Up Lower Thread
Hold the end of upper thread with
left hand.
Turn handwheel slowly towards you
until needle moves down and up
again.
Pull upper thread slowly and lower
thread will be brought up in a loop.
Pull out both threads about 15cm
(6") and place them together under
presser foot to left.
NOTE: Always place thread to the
back or left when starting to sew
a seam.
Failure to do this may cause
thread jamming.
Foot Pressure
Push down the outer ring of the
pressure regulator. This will re
lease the pressure on the presser
foot. To increase the pressure,
push down inner pin until suitable
pressure is obtained.
Insufficient pressure may cause
poor feeding of the fabric, skipped
stitches, or difficulty in guiding
the fabric. If feed dogs or presser
foot marks appear on the fabric,
reduce the pressure.
When sewing multiple thickness
or
heavy
fabric,
reduce
the
pressure. Increase pressure when
sewing lighter weight fabrics.
