book

for

the

PFAFF

Sewing

Machine

(Model

130)

For

best

results,

study

these

instructions

carefully—par

licularly

those

ports

on

the

core

of

the

machine.

Before

leoving

the

factory

your

PFAFF

was

adjusted,

carefully

tested,

and

found

to

be

perfect

in

every

respect.

If

you

follow

the

simple

suggestions

outlined

here,

you

will

enjoy

your

PFAFF...

find

it

endlessly

useful

...

and,

through-out

the

years

be

glad

that

your

choice

is

the

finest

sewing

machine

in

the

world.

I.

Useful

hinis

to

help

you

get

the

best

results

with

your

PFAFF

Use

fine

thread

and

a

fine

needle

adjusted

for

loose

tension

when

sewing

thin,

light

fabrics.

For

ordinary

lock

stitch

or

zigzag

seams,

regulate

the

tension

so

that

the

interlacing

of

upper

and

under

threads

takes

place

in

the

center

of

the

stitching.

For

making

buttonholes,

stitching

on

buttons,

eyeletting,

rolling

seams,

and

hemstitching,

the

tension

of

the

under

thread

should

be

somewhat

tight,

since

it

is

desirable

to

hove

the

threads

interlock

more

toward

the

underside

of

the

fabric.

Use

unglazed

thread

for

ordinary

sewing,

and

soft

yarn

for

embroidering,

darning,

etc.

Since

these

yarns

are

smoother

and

more

flexible

than

the

hard

and

brittle

glazed

cotton,

they

assure

well-drawn-in

stitches,

thus

protecting

the

seams

when

the

fabric

is

washed.

Skipping

of

stitches

may

be

caused

by:

1.

Needle

not

having

been

inserted

properly.

2.

Using

other

than

the

recommended

PFAFF

Needles.

3.

Needle

being

bent

by

wrong

handling,

or

too

fine

for

the

thread

used.
