Adjusting Width Tension Dial 234:~i61 Too Tight Correct Needle-thread Tension F NE Stitch-Length Dial ADJUSTING STITCH WIDTH To produce a zig-zag stitch, turn the stitchwidth dial to any setting between 1 and 5. The higher the number, the wider the stitch. ADJUSTING NEEDLE-THREAD TENSION Generally, zig-zag stitching at open stitch lengths requires the same needle-thread tension as straight stitching. Flexi-Stitch patterns, however, may require more needle-thread tension than Fashion Stitch patterns. Make a test sample with the fabric and thread you plan to use so that you can adjust the tension to suit the stitch you have chosen. The stitches should lie flat against the fabric without causing the fabric to pucker. If the stitches are not flat and the fabric is puckered, lower the needle-thread tension by turning the tension dial to a lower number. For tension adjustment of Fashion Stitch patterns at satin-stitch length, turn to page 54. ADJUSTING STITCH LENGTH For Fashion Stitch Patterns Any stitch length setting from 6 to 20 will give you an open zig-zag stitch of the pattern you select. The lower the number, the more open, or farther apart, your stitches will be. The symbol on the dial above 20 designates the FINE stitch area and is used for adjusting satin stitching (see page 54 for specific instructions). For Flexi-Stitch Patterns When you use a Flexi-Stitch pattern, set the stitch length dial in the 6 to 8 area indicated by the yellow band. The higher the number, the shorter your stitches will be. Dial numbers in this case do not represent length of stitches per inch. Stitching cannot be reversed when using a Flexi-Stitch pattern. 22
