Darning with the straight stitch Insert the darning foot: Set the needle at its highest point and push the pin of the darning foot fully into the hole C of the sewing foot holder. When doing this. the guide fork G should position itself around the presser bar. The wire E must be behind the fixing screw F. Now tighten screw D. Darning position: Lower the presser-foot lifter while pushing it I lightly to the rear. This snaps the presser-foot lifter into notch B (darning position). - Place the darning work in the darning hoop. - Drop the feed dog. - Pull up the bobbin thread and hold the I threads when you start sewing. - Darn the damaged area by guiding the fabric back and forth evenly in the prescri bed direction while ensuring that each line ends with a small curve. This helps to avoid the fabric ripping again. - When you have finished sewing the dama ged area, rotate the fabric a half turn and darn the area once again. You determine the stitch length yourself by moving the fabric back and forth. Tip: If you move the fabric too slowly, small knots will appear on the reverse side of the fabric. 51
