Tips and Tricks

Using pins

Always insert pins to the left of the sewing foot a (Fig. 103).
The pins are thus not in the cutting area of the blade i s and they can
be easily removed afterwards.
Attention! Appliance Damage!
NEVER sew over pins or other hard materials. The blade i s could be
irreparably damaged!

Secure empty threads

To prevent the loosening of an empty thread chain, you should thread the
empty thread chain into a hand-sewing needle. For security, insert the
needle into the end of the seam.

Seam reinforcement

The seam can be strengthened if it is sewn with a reinforcing strip.
To do this, guide the strip through the slot in the front area of the sewing
foot a (Fig. 104).
Place the strip under the foot and to the rear and then sew the seam.
Thus the strip is sewn into the seam (Fig. 105).

Edging

1. Adjust the upper blade i into the rest position.
2. Remove the right needle and its thread.
3. Pull the cord inlay (yarn or reinforcing strip) through the slot in the front
of the sewing foot a (Fig. 106).
4. Lay the cord inlay under the sewing foot a and chainstitch the desired
length (Fig. 107).
You can use the chainstitched edgings individually or weave several together.
