operation—
• Place ruffle strip between the two blue
blades and through the first separator
guide.
• Place fabric to which ruffle is to be
attached between the separator blade
and the feed of the machine.
Right sides of the fabric are placed
together when the seam is to fall to the
inside.
• Proceed as for plain gathering.
Pleating
• Move adjusting lever to space setting
desired for pleats of either 6 or 12
stitches apart.
• Activate adjusting finger.
• For deepest pleat, turn adjusting screw
in (clockwise) to its maximum. For
shallower pleats, turn adjusting
screw out (anti-clockwise).
• Set stitch length. A short stitch places
pleats close together, A longer stitch
separates the pleats for a greater
distance.

Group Pleating
By using the star setting (plain stitch­

pleats are formed in groups. Even spacing
between groups is easily accomplished by
counting the number of stitches^
