Using the Straight Stitch Needle
Plate and the Straight Stitch Foot
The straight stitch needle plate and the straight stitch
foot can only be used for straight stitches (middle
needle position stitches). Use the straight stitch
needle plate and the straight stitch foot when sewing
thin fabrics or when sewing small pieces which tend
to sink into the hole of the regular needle plate
during sewing. The straight stitch foot is perfect to
reduce puckering on lightweight fabrics. The small
opening on the foot provides support for the fabric
as the needle travels through the fabric.

Memo
When using the straight stitch needle plate, all
straight stitches become middle needle posi-
tion stitches. You cannot change the needle
position using the width display.
CAUTION
Selecting other stitches will cause an error
message to be displayed.
Be sure to turn the handwheel slowly in your
direction before sewing and make sure that
the needle is not contacting the straight stitch
foot and straight stitch needle plate.
Memo
To prevent puckering on fine fabrics, use a
fine needle, size 75/11, and a short stitch
length. For heavier fabrics, use a heavier nee-
dle, size 90/14, and longer stitches.
