Selection between ordinary stitching and triple auto
matic back-and-forth stitching called stretch stitch is
made by the stretch stitch control ring. With the
control ring to the left at mark "M", ordinary sewing
is performed. With the control ring to the left at the
mark "SS", your machine automatically performs the
stretch stitch with the repetition of two forward and
one backward stitch combination.
A reinforced seam of stretch stitch that will stretch
considerably more than the fabric used is the most
wanted feature in a sewing machine today.
Its uses are almost unlimited and the more you use
your machine the more it will become apparent to you.
When stretch stitching, the stitch length control should
be always set at
5
.

All regular stitches and blind stretch stitch are made by forward sewing at an op
tional forward stitch length selected by
stitch length control. All stretch stitches
are made at the fixed stretch stitch length
with the stitch length control at

stretch control ring at "SS". To balance
forward and reverse stitch length in stretch
stitching and buttonholding, adjust the
Automatic Reverse Stitch Tuner. With the
selector at buttonhole step (

machine does not feed fabric for barrack
ing the buttonhole ends and, with it at
buttonhole step (3), it feeds fabric in
reverse to sew the right buttonhole edge

automatically, regardless the setting of
stitch length control.
