SETTINGSTITCHLENGTH
The stitch length lever controls the stitch length. Set lever to any desired
stitch length position between 0 and 4 by turning knob until the indicator
is aligned with the stitch length number desired.
The red mark indicates the setting for a satin stitch. This will vary
slightly depending upon the type of material to be sewn. At No. 4 the
longest stitch is obtained. The size of stitch you select will depend on
fabric you are sewing. Straight stitching is done with stitch width control
on 0 setting and by removal of pattern disc.
REVERSESTITCHING
Raise lever for reverse stitching. Lower lever for forward stitching. It
is best to begin and end most seams with reverse stitching often called
back tacking.
BASTING
For accomplishing quicker, more even and firmer basting, we suggest you
regulate the maciline in the following manner; Set stitch length at No. 4
for the longest possible stitch. Machine should be threaded in normal
manner except bypassing the check spring as illustrated. Basting is
easily removed by pulling bottom thread. When basting very sheer fabrics,
use a paper backing.
If you prefer to use pins for basting, your KENMORE will sew over the
pins. Be sure to keep the pins at right angles to the seam and the head
of the pin away from the presser foot. Also reduce pressure on presser
foot.
