Cut an opening in the middle of the
buttonhole with the seam ripper tool. Be
careful not to cut through any stitches.
Adjusting Buttonholes
If the stitching on the two sides of the buttonhole is
not the same, you can make the following
adjustments.
1
Set the stitch length dial between "F" and 1.5
and sew the buttonhole on a scrap piece of
fabric to observe how the material is fed.
2
If the right side of the buttonhole is too coarse
or fine, adjust the feeding of the material with
the stitch length dial.
1 Right side
2 Shorter
3 Longer
3
After obtaining a satisfactory feed on the right
side, stitch the buttonhole and observe the
feeding.
4
If the left side is too coarse or fine compared
with the right side, adjust the buttonhole fine-
adjustment screw as described below.
If the left side is too coarse, turn the buttonhole
fine-adjustment screw with a large screwdriver
in the
– direction.
If the left side is too fine, turn the buttonhole
fine-adjustment screw with a large screwdriver
in the + direction.
• This adjustment ensures both sides of the
buttonhole are the same.
