In spite of this, a piece of paper should be placed underneath during sewing. First draw the spacings and the distance from the edge. This point always marks the beginning of sewing. Ten buttonhole lengths are stored in the compu ter, from 7,0 to 16 mm. On program selection a programmed buttonhole length of 14 mm and a buttonhole width of 4 mm appear in the display. Select the length of the but tonhole using stitch-length keys 7 (Fig. 1). The machine will automatically sew the selected but tonhole. Before beginning the buttonhole pull the runner of the buttonhole foot fully to the front. For the following buttonholes it is best to lift the fabric a little in order not to affect feeding. The sewing speed should always be the same. Correcting a buttonhole If a buttonhole does not turn out well, cancel it by pressing "pattern start" key 26 and sew it again. Changing the buttonhole width For every type of fabric, the corresponding but tonhole width can be determined up to 5,5 mm. For heavy materials select a wide buttonhole and for light materials a narrow one. With stitch width keys 8, you determine the required buttonhole width. The length of the cut changes automati cally (Fig. 5).A buttonhole width of 4 mm is stored. 78 Adapting the buttonhole seam lengths with the balance keys With "balance" keys 5 the left buttonhole sean length can be adapted to the right one. Sew a sample buttonhole first. Example: If the left seam is too short (Fig. 4a) Select balance +1 to +3 with key, or more i required. If the left seam is too long (Fig. 4b) Select balance -1 to -2 with key, or more i required. • Sew the first buttonhole seam at the require length and • the first bartack. • Press balance keys 5, "+" or"-", and adjust thi second buttonhole seam length to the first oni (Figs. 4a, 4b). • Sew last bartack. The change made in this way will be main tamed for the following buttonholes.

A
Sewing
thread:
Embroidery
and
darning
thread
Generally
buttonholes
are
sewn
onto
double
material.
In
spite
of
this,
a
piece
of
paper
should
be
placed
underneath
during
sewing.
First
draw
the
spacings
and
the
distance
from
the
edge.
This
point
always
marks
the
beginning
of
sewing.
Ten
buttonhole
lengths
are
stored
in
the
compu
ter,
from
7,0
to
16
mm.
On
program
selection
a
programmed
buttonhole
length
of
14
mm
and
a
buttonhole
width
of
4
mm
appear
in
the
display.
Select
the
length
of
the
but
tonhole
using
stitch-length
keys
7
(Fig.
1).
The
machine
will
automatically
sew
the
selected
but
tonhole.
Before
beginning
the
buttonhole
pull
the
runner
of
the
buttonhole
foot
fully
to
the
front.
For
the
following
buttonholes
it
is
best
to
lift
the
fabric
a
little
in
order
not
to
affect
feeding.
The
sewing
speed
should
always
be
the
same.
Correcting
a
buttonhole
If
a
buttonhole
does
not
turn
out
well,
cancel
it
by
pressing
“pattern
start”
key
26
and
sew
it
again.

Adapting
the
buttonhole
seam
lengths
with
the
balance
keys
With
“balance”
keys
5
the
left
buttonhole
sean
length
can
be
adapted
to
the
right
one.
Sew
a
sample
buttonhole
first.
Example:
If
the
left
seam
is
too
short
(Fig.
4a)
Select
balance
+1
to
+3
with
required.
If
the
left
seam
is
too
long
(Fig.
4b)
Select
balance
—1
to
—2
with
key,
or
more
i

Sew
the
first
buttonhole
seam
at
the
require
length
and
the
first
bartack.
Press
balance
keys
5,
“+“
or”—”,
and
adjust
thi
second
buttonhole
seam
length
to
the
first
oni
(Figs.
4a,
4b).
Sew
last
bartack.
The
change
made
in
this
way
will
be
main
tamed
for
the
following
buttonholes.
Changing
the
buttonhole
width
For
every
type
of
fabric,
the
corresponding
but
tonhole
width
can
be
determined
up
to
5,5
mm.
For
heavy
materials
select
a
wide
buttonhole
and
for
light
materials
a
narrow
one.
With
stitch
width
keys
8,
you
determine
the
required
buttonhole
width.
The
length
of
the
cut
changes
automati
cally
(Fig.
