• Lungimea cusăturii: Adjust the stitch length dial (range 1.0 to 4.0 mm) to suit your fabric and project needs.
• Presiunea piciorului presor: Adjust the presser foot pressure to ensure even feeding of various fabric types, from delicate sheers to heavy denim.

The differential feed system prevents fabric stretching or puckering on knits and sheers, and can also be used to create decorative ruffles.

• Turn the differential feed dial to adjust the ratio between the front and rear feed dogs.
• For normal sewing, set the dial to 'N' (normal).
• For stretching fabric, increase the ratio. For gathering or ruffling, decrease the ratio.
