SATIN

STITCH

CONTROL

favorit

50

The

adjustment

of

the

right

stitch

length

for

decorative

stitches

and

buttonholes

is

very

easy

on

the

Bernina

se-

wing

machines,

thanks

to

the

patented

satin

stitch

control.

Suppose

the

stitch

length

regulation

lever

is

on

no.

2

and

the

stitch

length

must

be

adjusted

for

sewing

a

button-

hole.

First,

of

all

the

satin

Mitch

control

lever

20

is

swivelled

as

far

as

possible

upwards,

and

afterwards

the

stitch

length

regulation

lever

24

is

equally

pushed

upwards

until

it

stri-

ke

,

the

stop.

The

satin

stitch

control

must

be

brought

into

the

disen-

gaged

position

only

if

the

machine

serves

sbo

for

back-

ward

sewing.

This

disengagement

of

the

satin

stitch

con-

trol

takes

place

by

pressing

the

lever

20

down,

whereby

the

normal

state

for

the

choice

of

the

stitch

length,

for

-

want

and

backward,

is

again

restored.

As

following

the

thirknmoi

of

the

yarn

which

has

to

be

imployed

for

the

different

works

this

stitch

length

ought

to

be

smaller

or

larger,

the

stitch

control

for

satin

stitch

is

laid

on

an

cceentric

axis.

By

turning

knob

23

to

the

left,

said

stitch

length

will

be

increased

following

the

numbers

indicated

on

said

knob,

on

which

you

will

find

the

num•

hers

from

d

to

5.

The

thicker

the

yarn

to

be

teed

and

the

stronger

the

cloth

to

be

worked,

the

more

the

knob

must

be

turned

towards

the

left,

in

the

direction

of

the

next

higher

number

on

knob

23.

The

number

is

exactly

opposed

to

the

fixed

mark

on

the

machine

stand.

The

knob

must

be

adjusted

in

a

way

that

seams

of

uniform

thickness

can

he

achieved.
