Stitch Length Regulation Turn dial until the number indicating the desired stitch length is opposite the mork on the dial housing (see straight arrow). Or sew a few stitches and regulate stitch length as required. To facilitate satin stitching, the 0-I range on the scale is just as large as the 1-4 section. The setting depends on the type of fabric ond thread size used. Far normal satin stitching, set dial on 0.2. Reverse Sewing To backtack the beginning or end of a seam, simply press the finger-tip control down. When the control is released, the machine resumes forward sewing automatically. This feature is ideal for darning rips with the ordinary sewing foot. To do this, operate the control in rhythm and move the fabric slightly sideways. In this way, one seam is placed neatly beside the other. Thereverse stitches will be about the same length as forward stitches. 22
