Kenmore 1940 Sewing Machine User Manual


 
SPECIAL STITCH DIAL
There are certain types of utility stitches you will use often in your home
sewing. This control enables you to just dial the stitch you need for the
task at hand.
All stitches printed in red on the dial must be sewn with the Special Stitch
Modifier set at the Red Dot.
To make the stitches printed in white on this dial, the Special Stitch Modifier
must be set at the White Dot.
THE RED DOT SETTING
The setting illustrated above is the one used for most of your stitching.
At this setting you may straight stitch, stretch stitch and make a simple
zig zag stitch. As each stitch is dependent upon the settings of your other
controls, carefully read the directions in the next section of the book for the
various stitches.
