Balance
•
any changes to the balance affect both beads of auto length
buttonholes, because both beads are sewn in the same direction
Exact duplicates
the auto function ensures that
each buttonhole will be exactly
the same length as the pre-
vious one
Marking
mark only the beginning of the
buttonholes – a real time
saver!
Sewing speed
•
sew at moderate speed for
best results
•
sew all buttonholes at the
same speed for a consistent
bead density
TIP
Note:
When all buttonholes have
been sewn, return balance to
the normal setting!
Compensating plates for
buttonholes (special accessory)
If a buttonhole is to be sewn
horizontally to the edge of the
garment, it is worth using the
compensating plates.
This accessory provides an even
surface for the buttonhole foot
with slide which results in a per-
fect buttonhole (see tips p. 40).
