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

TENSION
Generally,
zig-zag
stitching
at
open
stitch
lengths
requires
the
same
needle

ten-
sion
as
straight
stitching.
Flexi-Stitch
patterns,
however,
may
require more
needle

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
caus-
ing
the
fabric
to

If
the

are

LENGTH
For

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
instruc-
tions).
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.
