ADJUSTING STITCH DENSITY
BALANCE
Differences in stitch density between the right
and left sides of the buttonhole (forward and
reverse stitching) are equalized by adjusting
the reverse stitch push button. A very slight
rotation of the button will produce a noticeable
change.
• Make a test buttonhole with the push button
in neutral position (indicator dot directly be
low T symbol).
1. If stitches on right side of the buttonhole
are too open, rotate the push button toward
right from its neutral position to increase
density of stitching.
2. If stitches on left side of the buttonhole are
too open, rotate the push button toward left
from its neutrai position to increase density
of stitching.
After buttonhoie stitching is completed, return
push button to its neutral position (indicator
dot directly below T symbol).
