Loosen the needle thread tension by moving the dial to a lower number.

NOTE: In order to obtain better zigzag stitches, the top thread tension should be slightly looser than the bobbin thread tension. That means the top thread should appear slightly on the reverse side of the fabric, but the bobbin thread should not appear on the top side of the fabric.

Needle, thread and fabric chart

Your fabric will determine the choice of a needle and thread. The following table is a practical guide to needle and thread selection.

Always refer to it before a new sewing project. And be sure to use the same size and type of thread in the bobbin as in the top thread supply.

CAUTION

Always disconnect the machine from power supply by removing the plug from the wall-outlet.

Changing the needle

  1. Raise the needle by turning hand wheel toward you and lower the presser foot.
  2. Rotate the needle clamp screw toward you (counterclockwise) to loosen the needle.
  3. Remove the needle from the clamp.
  4. Insert the new needle into the needle clamp with the flat side away from you.
  5. When inserting the needle into the clamp, push it up as far as it will go.
  6. Tighten the clamp screw clockwise firmly with the screwdriver.

NOTE: Tighten snugly, but do not over tighten.

Helpful Hint: Placing a scrap of fabric under the presser foot and lowering the presser foot makes it easier to change the needle and will preclude dropping the needle into the needle plate slot.

SINGER SM024 - Changing the needle - 1

Change the needle often. As a general rule, needles, should be changed every 6-8 hours of actual stitching time.

SINGER SM024 - Changing the needle - 2

text_image Technical diagram showing sewing machine tool and mechanical assembly with directional arrows indicating movement or positioning

* Check your needles frequently for barbed or blunted points.

Snags and runs in knits, fine silks and silk-like fabrics are permanent and are almost always caused by damaged needle.

Selecting stretch stitch patterns

When sewing stretch stitches, set the stitch length dial at "SS".

When forward and reverse feeds become unbalanced depending upon the type of fabric, correct as follows. When patterns are compressed, correct it by turning the dial toward “+”. When patterns are drawn out, correct it by turning the dial toward “-”.

Stitch length dial

The higher the number, the longer the stitch length. Note: when set to "0", the machine will not feed the fabric.

Useful sewing tips

Various ways to achieve better sewing results are described below. Refer to these tips when sewing.

1. Trial sewing

Use different stitch width and length for trial sewing. When you have finished, select the best looking stitch length for correct sewing.

For the trial sewing, use a piece of fabric and thread that are the same as those used for your project, and check the thread tension and stitch length. Since the results differ depending on the type of stitching and the number of fabric layers sewn, perform the trial sewing under the same conditions that will be used with your project.

2. Changing the sewing direction

Stop the machine and turn the hand wheel toward you to bring the needle down into the fabric. Raise the presser foot.

Pivot the fabric around the needle to change sewing direction as desired. Lower the presser foot and continue sewing.

SINGER SM024 - Changing the sewing direction - 1

natural_image Diagram showing a sewing machine with a close-up view of the mechanism (no text or symbols present)

3. Sewing curves

1). Stop sewing, and then slightly change the sewing direction to sew around the curve.
2). When sewing along a curve while using a zigzag stitch, select a shorter length in order to obtain a finer stitch.

4. Sewing thick fabrics

If the fabric does not fit under the presser foot

Raise the presser foot even higher to bring the presser foot to its highest position. Then place the fabric under the presser foot. (See page 4 to raise the presser foot.)

5. Sewing elastic fabric or the fabric that is easy to cause skipping stitches

Use ball point needle and longer stitch length. If necessary, add a layer of stabilizer under the fabric for better sewing.

6. Sewing thin fabric or silk

Some fine fabrics, such as silk, can be slippery and more difficult to handle. It can be helpful to place a lightweight stabilizer underneath the fabric for easier sewing.

7. Sewing stretch fabrics

First, baste the fabrics together, and then sew without stretching the fabric.

8. Free arm sewing

When sewing trousers, sleeve cuffs or other hard-to-reach areas, use the free-arm sewing function (for details about setting the machine for free-arm sewing, refer to page 4).

G. Cut open the buttonhole with seam ripper.

Buttonhole stitch

Tips:

Slightly reduce the upper tension for best results.

Use stabilizer for fine or stretchy materials.

We recommend placing a pin across the end of the buttonhole as a precaution against cutting the stitches with the seam ripper.

It is advisable to use gimp cord for stretch or knit fabrics. The zigzag should sew over the gimp.

The lines on the buttonhole foot can be used guides when sewing multiple buttonholes.

  1. Lift the presser foot, pull the gimp cord and come round the protruding point on back of the buttonhole foot.
  2. Pull the gimp cord under the foot to the front.
  3. Fix the gimp cord to the protruding point on front of foot.
  4. Turn the needle down to the starting position on fabric, put down the presser foot.
  5. Sew the buttonhole according to page 17.
  6. Pull the gimp cord straightly.
  7. Cut the gimp cord.
