1 ! The Zigzag dial (23) controls the width of the stitch. By moving the
dial from right to left you can widen the stitch from STRAIGHT to
MAXIMUM ZIGZAG WIDTH.
2) When the dial is set at the extreme right position, the machine will make
straight stitch, {See Fig. 19)
3! The further you move the dial to left, the wider zigzag stitch will be.
The widest zigzag stitch is obtained when the lever is set to the extreme
left. (See Fig. 20)

the various zigzag stitches.
