The length of the stitch is regulated by the dial 14, shown in Fig. 1. Near O is shortest
stitch and 4 is longest, but the dial may be set at any spot between markings for a variety of
lengths. Turn the dial to the left to lengthen and to the right to shorten the stitch. The
number of the stitch length you choose should appear under the dot.

SEWING IN REVERSE

When you wish to sew backward to tie the threads at the beginning or the end of a seam,
press the R button (15, Fig. 1) in as far as it will go. The machine will sew backward as
long as the button is held down.

ADJUSTING THE TENSIONS

Always adjust the upper tension with the presser foot down, as the
tension is released when it is raised. To increase tension on the
upper thread, turn dial (Fig. 14) to the right, or clockwise. To de­

crease, turn to the left. The higher the number on the dial, the
tighter

the

tension.
