GETTING READYCONTENTS SEWING BASICS UTILITY STITCHES APPENDIX INDEX
Adjusting the Stitch Width and Length
The zigzag width (pattern width) and stitch length of utility stitches can be adjusted. Normally, when a stitch is
selected, the appropriate width and length are automatically selected. For details on the range of values within
which the width and length can be set, refer to “Stitch Settings” (page 128).
Adjusting the stitch width
The stitch width can be adjusted with the arrow keys.
1
Turn on the sewing machine.
X The LCD comes on.
2
Select a stitch.
X A screen containing settings for the selected
stitch appears.
For details on selecting a stitch, refer to
“Selecting stitching” (page 68).
Immediately after the stitch is selected, the
standard settings (highlighted) appear.
3
To make the stitch width narrower, press
(–). To make the stitch width wider, press
(+).
X The stitch width is changed.
If the setting is changed, the highlighted
value is erased.
Memo
To reset the stitch width to its standard
setting, select the same stitch again or
change the setting to the highlighted value.
If the straight stitch (left needle position or
triple stretch stitch) was selected, changing
the stitch width changes the needle
position. Increasing the width moves the
needle to the right; reducing the width
moves the needle to the left.
The settings can be saved so that they will
always be specified each time the utility
stitch is selected. For details, refer to
“Saving stitch settings” (page 60).
The sewing machine can be set so that the
stitch width can easily be changed with the
sewing speed controller. For details, refer to
“Satin stitching” (page 99).
+
After adjusting the stitch width, slowly
turn the balance wheel toward you and
check that the needle does not touch the
presser foot. If the needle hits the presser
foot, the needle may bend or break.
