professional appearance. Use pearl cotton or a
regular gimp thread.

Place the center of a length of gimp thread over
the metal bar extending from the center back
of the sensormatic buttonhole foot 5A. Pass the

Sew on a button
To sew on a button, remove the presser foot and
select the sew on button program. The feed dogs
will automatically be lowered.
Place the button under the presser foot holder. Use
the mirroring icon to make sure the holes in the
button are aligned with the swing of the needle
and the width is appropriate for the actual button.
If needed change the width between holes with the
width icons.
If needed, increase or decrease the number of
stitches that will fasten the button on the fabric,
using the button stitch repetition icons (24). Start to
sew. The machine will sew the program for you.
Note: Use the
multi-purpose tool to create a thread
shank for your button. You can also use a sew on button
foot, available as an optional accessory at your local
authorized PFAFF® dealer.
