19 Setting the seam width Set the seam width as follows: 1. Switch the main switch to OFF and pull out the lead cord/plug. 2. Open the looper cover and the swivel plate. 3. Move the upper blade to its lower position (see Page 24). 4. Adjust the setting knob until the lower blade is in the desired position.
20 Setting the stitch length T urn the stitch length setting knob in such a way that the desired stitch length is indica- ted at the setting mark. The higher the num- ber , the longer the stitch. The stitch length can be adjusted between 1 and 5 mm. The setting R is used for sewing rolled hems.
21 Presser foot pressure The presser foot pressure does not need to be adjusted for most fabrics. If you are working with light or heavy fabrics then you may need to adjust the pressure.
22 Changing the needle Switch the main switch to OFF . Move the needle(s) to the highest position. Loosen the fastening screw of the needle that is to be changed. Needle system HA X 1SP (130/705 H-PS) is required for this machine. Inserting the right needle Insert the new needle in such a way that the flat side points towards the rear .
23 Use of the right needle only (for 3-thread seams with a narrow seam width) T urn the machine off. Remove the left needle and the left needle thread. T ighten the left needle fastening screw again slightly so it does not fall out. Use of the left needle only (for 3-thread seams with a wide seam width) T urn the machine off.
24 Disengaging the upper blade T urn the machine off. – Open the looper cover and the swivel plate. – Push the ridged knob for lowering the upper blade to the right and turn it towards you. Guide the upper blade over the blocking pin so that the upper blade engages in its lower position.

26 Using the seam guidelines On the top side of the looper cover , you will find seam guidelines which indicate the distance from the needles. These guidelines should help you to properly position your fabric when sewing. Starting sewing Lay the sewing material under the front of the presser foot (it is not necessary to raise the presser foot).
27 Securing the seam ends Leave a thread chain of approx. 5 cm (2”) in length extending at the beginning and the end of the seam to prevent the seam from coming undone. Secure the thread chain at the beginning and end of the seam using one of the following methods.
28 3. Flip the fabric over so the bottom side is now on the top. Pull the fabric around so it is positioned under the presser foot and in front of the needles. Make sure the fabric is not positioned in the path of the upper blade. 5. Lower the presser foot, sew approx.
