Adjusting the Balance

Different fabrics, threads and linings can affect stretch stitch patterns or buttonholes, causing them to be sewn incorrectly. Mechanical balance adjustment enables these deviations to be corrected and the stitch pattern to be optimally adjusted for the fabric to be worked with.

  1. Select a stretch stitch pattern or buttonhole.
  2. Adjust the stitch length.
  3. Adjust the stitch width.
  4. Correct the balance by using a coin to turn it.
  1. To increase the stitch density of the left satin stitch for the buttonhole, turn the balance adjustment knob clockwise.
  3. To decrease the stitch density of the left satin stitch for the buttonhole, turn the balance adjustment knob anti-clockwise.
  5. To increase the stitch density of the stretch stitches, turn the balance adjustment knob clockwise.
  7. To decrease the stitch density of the stretch stitches, turn the balance adjustment knob anti-clockwise.
