Starting to Sew
Always test sew on scraps of the same fabric
that you will be using. Place the fabric scrap
under the presser foot and needles.
If the fabric is extra bulky, pull forward on the
presser foot lever to have more clearance
under the foot.
Swing up the presser foot lever to lower the
presser foot.
Hand turn the flywheel to form the first few
stitches. Begin using the foot control at a
slower speed, gradually building up the
speed.
Hand guide the fabric gently while sewing.
Check the stitch formation. If the stitch has
irregularities, check the threading.
When you reach the end of the fabric,
continue sewing to form stitches off the fabric
(overlock chain-off threads). Keep pressing
the foot control until you are able to cut the
overlock chain-off threads with the thread
cutter.
Continue sewing by simply placing the next
fabric piece in front of the feed dogs. Tip up
the front end of the foot and insert the fabric
under the foot.
NOTE: It is not necessary to lift up the
presser foot when placing the next fabric
piece.
