1. Raise the presser foot and position the fabric
next to a stitching guide line on the needle plate.
Lower the needle into the fabric. Lower the presser foot
and move the threads toward the back of the machine.
Press the foot control.
2. Gently guide the fabric along the guide line letting the
fabric feed by itself.
• For fastening the ends of seams, press the reverse
stitch button and sew several reverse stitches.
3. Raise the presser foot and remove the fabric, moving the
threads to the back. Cut the threads in the thread cutter on the
face cover. The threads are cut the proper length for
starting the next seam.
4.
To change the sewing direction, stop the machine and turn the
handwheel toward you to bring the needle down into the fabric.
Raise the presser foot. Pivot the fabric around the needle to
change sewing direction as desired. Lower the presser foot
and continue sewing.
