☐ Threading the Upper Thread

This is a simple operation but it is important to carry out correctly as by not doing so several sewing problems could result

• Start by raising the needle to its highest point (1), and continue turning the handwheel counterclockwise until the needle just slightly begins to descend. Raise the presser foot to release the tension discs.
  Note: For safety, it is strongly suggested you turn off the power before threading.
• Lift up the spool pin. Place the spool of thread on the holder with the thread coming off the spool as shown. For small thread spools, place small side of spool holder next to spool. (2)
• Draw thread from spool through the upper thread guide (3) and pulling thread through pre-tension spring as illustrated. (4)
• Thread tension module by leading thread down right channel and up left channel. (5) During this process it is helpful to hold the thread between the spool and thread guide.
• At the top of this movement pass thread from right to left through the slotted eye of the take-up lever and then downwards again. (6)
• Now pass the thread behind the horizontal thread guide, and then behind the thin wire needle clamp guide (7) and then down to the needle which should be threaded from front to back.
• Pull about 6-8 inches of thread to the rear beyond the needle eye. Trim thread to length with built in thread cutter. (8)

□ Thread Tension

Upper thread tension

Basic thread tension setting: "4". (1)

To increase the tension, turn the dial to the next number up.

To reduce the tension, turn the dial to the next number down.

A. Normal thread tension for straight stitch sewing.
B. Thread tension too loose for straight stitch sewing. Turn dial to higher number.
C. Thread tension too tight for straight stitch sewing. Turn dial to lower number.
D. Normal thread tension for zig zag and decorative sewing. Correct thread tension is when a small amount of the upper thread appears on the bottom side of fabric.

Lower thread tension

The bobbin tension has been set correctly at the factory, so you do not need to adjust it.

Please note:

• Proper tension setting is important for strong seams.
• There is no single tension setting appropriate for all stitch functions, thread or fabric.
• A balanced tension (identical stitches both top and bottom) is usually only desirable for straight stitch construction sewing.
• 90% of all sewing will be between "3" and "5".
• For zig zag and decorative sewing stitch functions, thread tension should generally be less than for straight stitch sewing.
• For all decorative sewing you will always obtain a nicer stitch and less fabric puckering when the upper thread appears on the bottom side of your fabric.

□ Stitch Width Dial & Stitch Length Dial

Function of stitch width dial

The maximum zigzag stitch width for zigzag stitching is 6mm; however, the width can be reduced on any patterns. The width increases as you move zigzag dial from "0" - "6". (1)

Function of stitch length dial while zig-zag stitching

Set the Pattern Selector Dial to zig-zag.

The density of zig-zag stitches increase as the setting of stitch length dial approaches "0".

Standard zigzag stitches are usually achieved at "3" or below. (2)

Dense zig-zag stitches are called satin stitches. (2)

Function of stitch length dial for when straight stitching

For straight stitch sewing, turn the Pattern Selector Dial to the straight stitch setting. Turn the Stitch Length Dial, and the length of the individual stitches will decrease as the dial approached "0". The length of the individual stitches will increase as the dial approaches "4". Generally speaking, use a longer stitch length when sewing heavier weight fabrics or when using a thicker needle or thread. Use a shorter stitch length when sewing lighter weight fabrics or when using a finer needle or thread.

□ Blind Hem

For hems on curtains, trousers, skirts, etc.

Blind hem for stretch fabrics.

Blind hem for firm fabrics.

Set the Stitch Length Dial with the range shown on the diagram at the right. Blind hems, however, are normally sewn with a longer stitch length setting. Set the Stitch Width Dial at a setting appropriate for the weight/type of fabric being sewn, within the range shown in the diagram on the right of the page. Generally, a narrower stitch is used for lighter weight fabrics, and a wider stitch is used for heavier weight fabrics. Sew a test first to make sure the machine settings are appropriate for the fabric.

Blind Hem:

Turn up the hem to the desired width and press. Fold back (as shown in Fig. 1) against the right side of the fabric with the top edge of the hem extending about 7 mm (1/4") to the right side of the folded fabric.

Start to sew slowly on the fold, making sure the needle touches slightly the folded top to catch one or two fabric threads. (2)

Unfold the fabric when hemming is completed and press.

Note:

To make blind hem sewing even easier, use a blind hem foot, available from your re#NGE(See page 6 for part number)

□ Buttonholes

Prepare

1. Take off the all purpose foot and attach the buttonhole foot.
2. Measure diameter and thickness of button and add 0.3 cm (1/8") for bar tacks to obtain correct buttonhole length; mark buttonhole length on fabric (a).
3. Place fabric under the foot, so that marking on the buttonhole foot aligns with starting marking on fabric. Lower the foot, so that the buttonhole center line marked on the fabric aligns with the center of the buttonhole foot (b).

Adjust the Stitch Length Dial in the "☐" to set stitch density. Set the stitch width at "6". The width however may need to be adjusted according to the project, sew a test first to determine this.

Note:

Density varies according to the fabric. Always test sew a buttonhole on the fabric you are using to sew the buttonhole.

Follow the 4-step sequence changing from one step to another with the Pattern Selector Dial. When moving from step to step through the buttonhole process, be sure that the needle is raised before turning the Pattern Selector Dial to the next step. Take care not to sew too many stitches in steps 1 and 3. Use seam ripper and cut buttonhole open from both ends towards the middle.

Tips:

• Slightly reducing upper thread tension will produce better results.
• Use a stabilizer for fine or stretchy fabrics.
• It is advisable to use heavy thread or cord for stretch or knit fabrics. The zig-zag should sew over the heavy thread or cord. (A)

☐ Left and Right Side Balance for Buttonhole

Stitch density on right and left sides of buttonhole can be adjusted by buttonhole balance control dial.

This dial should usually be in a neutral position (between "+" and "-")

If the stitches on the left side of buttonhole are too close together, turn the dial to the left (+).

* Turning dial to the left opens left side.

If the stitches on the left side of the buttonhole are too open, turn the dial to the right (−).

* Turning dial to right closes left side.

□ Sewing on Buttons

Move the drop feed control to right side to lower the feed dogs. (1)

Change the all purpose foot to the button sewing foot. (2) Set the stitch length to "0".

Place the button and fabric under the Button Sewing foot, as illustrated in (3).

Set the machine for zig-zag stitch, then set the width to number "3" - "6". Turn the handwheel to check that the needle goes cleanly into the left and right holes of the button. Adjust the stitch width, as needed, according to the distance between the holes of the button. Slowly sew on the button with about 10 stitches.

Raise the needle out of the fabric. Set the machine for straight stitch again, then sew a few securing stitches to finish.

If a shank is required, place a darning needle on top of the button and sew. For buttons with 4 holes, sew through the front two holes first, push the work forward and then sew through the back two holes.
