STITCH SETTINGS
When you select a stitch, your machine automatically selects the appropriate stitch width, stitch length,
and upper thread tension. However, if needed, you can change any of the individual settings.
Setting the Stitch Width
Follow the steps below when you want to change
the zigzag stitch pattern width.
Example:
Press to narrow the zigzag stitch pattern
width.
→ The value in the display gets smaller.
Press to widen the zigzag stitch pattern width.
→ The value in the display gets bigger.
Note
• Settings for some stitches cannot be changed (refer to the “STITCH SETTING CHART” at the end of
this manual).
• If you turn off the machine or select another stitch without saving stitch setting changes (“Saving Your
Stitch Settings” on page 92), the stitch settings will return to their default settings.
Memo
• For an alternate method of changing the
stitch width using the speed controller, see
page 115.
Memo
• Press to return the stitch width to the
original setting.
Note
• After adjusting the stitch width, slowly rotate
the handwheel toward you (counterclock-
wise) and check that the needle does not
touch the presser foot. If the needle hits the
presser foot, the needle may bend or break.
