Note: Test sew the cover stitch first, without adding the deco cover thread. When the stitch is tested, continue sewing also with the deco cover thread. Starting to sew Lift up the presser foot and position the fabric under the presser foot so that the needles pierce the fabric on the first stitch. The deco cover threads must be behind the needles in order to be picked up on the very first stitch. The raw edge must be along the two of the sewing table. Keep the threads moderately taut and start sewing slowly. As soon as the first few stitches have been formed, the deco cover threads can be cut short at the start of the seam and you can increase the sewing speed. Stopping sewing 1. If you are sewing to the edge of the project: Grasp the threads at the end of the seam and sew slowly off the project. As you do so, pull the threads gently backwards. 2. If you are sewing a continuous hem (around a project): Sew 4-5 stitches over the previous stitches. On the last stitch, turn the hand wheel towards you slowly until the needles reach their lowest position. Now turn the hand wheel back until the needles are in their highest position. At the same time, loosen the needle threads slightly with one finger. 6-14
