DR 008 Stitch Length Regulation The stitch length control serves to regulate the stitch length and to limit it in sewing backwards. The numbers on the control indicate the stitch length (the higher the num ber, the longer the stitch). When the control is set on "0" the machine ceases feeding. The maximum stitch length is six stitches to the inch. To regulate the stitch length, turn the control until the number indicating the desired stitch length is opposite the mark on the left edge of the slot. (The position of the mark is indicated by an arrow in the illustration). I Reverse Sewing To sew in reverse, simply press the finger-tip control down. When the control is released, the machine resumes forward sewing. This feature is ideal for backtacking the beginning or end of a seam and for darning rips. 18 DR 009
