Removing the bobbin case
Lift or remove the extension plate, open the shuttle
door. There is a small recess on the free arm to
@ o
facilitate the opening of the shuttle door.
Grasp the bobbin case with the thumb and index C
finger so that the latch is depressed and draw out
the bobbin case. The bobbin will remain in the
case as long as the latch is depressed. When you
release the catch, the bobbin will be released.

Boboin winding
T"ke an empty bobbin from the accessory box.
On c,ne side of the bobbin there is a hole. Turn
th: bobbin with the hole outwards and slide the
ot-,bbin onto the bobbin spindle which is located on
the right side of the machine. place the thread over
the bobbin. Start from al.ove and wind the thread
a feu'times around the bobbin. Hold the end of the
thread rvhile you press down the foot control.
Release the thread end as soon as winding starts.
Stop u'inding before the bobbin is completely filled

- about 1132" (l mm) from the rim (outer edge).

winding becomes even.

If the winding looks like fig. 3, check to see if the


bobbin is properly pressed in on the spindle. If this
is correct, turn the thread tension device counter-
clockwise until the winding becomes even.

10
Threading the lower thread
When the bobbin is wound, place it beside its case
with the hole upwards. The thread is then running
as shown in the fig. Place the bobbin in its case
without turning it around.

Slide the thread into the slot on the edge of the


bobbin case.
Pu1l the thread in under the tension spring. Check
that the bobbin rotates in the direction of the arrow
rihen the thread is pulled.

Insertion of the bobbin case


Set the bobbin case onto the center post of the
shuttle (hook) so that the projection of the bobbin
case fits in the notch at the top of the shuttle cover.

Thread the needle from the front. Thanks to the
white field on the presser foot clamp the needle-e1'e
appears very clearly and in this way the threading
of needle 6 is easier.

Bringing up the lower thread
Hold the threaded upper thread and turn the
handwheel toward you until the needle goes down
and then up again. When the needle is in its highest
)
position, pull the upper thread and you will get a 6 Htgvarna 2oOO

loop of the lower thread which is easy to catch.


You shouldn't pull the upper thread too hard as this
may bend the needle.

Puil the threads about 6" (15 cm) towards the rear.
ii rhe thread ends are too short, the thread may
gl:de out of the eye of the needle when you begin
:C,S3\\'.

Thread cutter
On the back of the presser bar you will find a
.+
notch, the thread cutter, which makes it easy for
1'ou to cut off the threads.

)
Tension of upper thread
The dial which regulates the tension of the u::=-
thread is graduated from 0 to 10. Normal :i:.=:
tension is obtained by setting the red spot at th: -.-.-
dicator point. Your machine has been testec ,',-.:
the thread which accompanies it and with the ih:;.-
6- tension dial set at the red spot. It may be nece)!:.-
- o- to adjust the thread tension somewhat if vo; :..
thread of another thickness.

A For example, a heavier-than-ordinary sewing tl-.r:.:


usually requires a heavier upper thread tension.

There is also a special mark on the thread tensir':r


dial for the tension that can be used for makln_g
buttonholes. This setting is also usable for close
pattern stitching, monogramming, embroidering. erc.

E

Tension of lower thread


In most special sewing cases it is sufficient to change
only the upper thread tension. Rarely do you need
to adjust the lower thread tension. If it is necessary
to adjust the tension of the lower thread, take out the
small screwdriver from the accessory box. Fit it in
the larger screw on the thread tension spring and
turn it not more than l/10th of a turn to the left
ifthe thread tension is too hard, to the right if it
is too loose.

t4

I
Correct and wrong thread tension
In order to easily understand the importance of I
correct thread tension, you can try different thread Wrong
o
tensions by sewing two thicknesses of a scrap of
cloth. Begin by using an excessively loose tension,
i.e, 1'ou turn the upper thread tension dial upwards
as far as it rvill go. Look at the cloth and you will
find the lower thread lies straight and the upper
Wrong
thread is drawn down into the lower side of the I E
cloth. If vou turn the dial downward, the opposite
8
cccurs. The upper thread lies straight and the lower
thread comes up in loops on the top of the cloth.
The thread tension is correct when the threads inter-
iock in the middle of the layers of cloth. Before 6
starting to sew, check the tension by sewing on a Correct o
piece of the same fabric you intend to work with.

Ber'ore r ou begin to use the zig-zag stitch, check


i::t the thread tension is the same as when you did z
1
.tra:ght stitching. Use a scrap of material to see Wrong
r".ir the zig-zag stitches look if you set them first on o EI

tne loosest (upper picture), then on the heaviest \/\/\/\/\/\


:hread tension (middle picture). Then finally the
.orrect thread tension will look about like that in
:he 1ou'er picture.

Regular Bresser foot
Upper side Under side The piesser foot (383) which is fitted on the machine
at delivery is used for normal straight stitching, zig-
zag stitching and other utility stitches. As you can
see, it has different notches which can be used as
guides when sewing. If you wish to have a seam
allowance about Il4" (7 mm), let the material run
even with the outer edge of the presser foot' (Ap-
plies to straight stitching wiith the needle in the
middle position). By moving one step inwards, you
will have a seam allowance of about 5132" (4mm)'
The innermost notch gives a seam allowance of
aboat5f 64" (2 mm).
2

Edge guide
You can easily sew with wider seam allowances with
the aid of the edge guide (4015 420) vf,,hich you will
find in the accessory box. The edge guide is inserted
through the hole in the presser bar and is secured
to the bar by means of an attachment screw (41 11
399) which is found in the accessory box.

t6
Changing the snap-on presser foot
The presser feet which accompany the machine
have the form of loose soles which are held in place
on the presser foot "ankle" by a spring. If you wish
to change the presser foot, turn the hand wheel to-
*ard r-ou until the needle is in the highest position.
Remove the presser foot by drawing it toward you
nhile pressing slightly downward. tt
O
@
O

Slide the new presser foot over the front edge of


the ankle bracket as shown in the illustration. There
is a spring on the lower end of the ankle bracket.
Slide on the presser foot so that the round trans-
,, erse pin on the presser foot fits into the
space be-
rileen the bracket and the spring. Then press lightly
rackriard and downward and the presser foot will
srap inro the correct position.

Changing the presser foot o'ankle"


Certain presser feet cannot be constructed as loose
soles and then the ankle bracket must also be
changed. Make sure that the needle is in its highest
position. Then loosen the retaining screw with your
left hand (use the screwdriver if it is too tight) and
remove the presser foot with your right hand.

Presser foot pressure


Presser foot pressure can be adjusted with the aid
of a dial located on the face plate on the left-hand
g side of the machine. Set the red dot opposite the
indicator red dot (as shown at left), but for some
fabrics it may be better to reduce or increase the
pressure somewhat, i.e. turn the dial to smaller or
larger lines. When set at the "crosshatch" symbol
( # ) the presser foot pressure is completely disen-
gaged. This setting is used when darning with
the darning foot.

If you turn the dial for adjustment of the presser


foot pressure to the smallest line and lower the feed
dog, it is possible to do mending work with the
regular utility stitch presser foot (383). Move the
fabric forwards, backwards and sideways by hand.
This works best with stitch length dial set at zero.

18
Selecting the stitch
On the right side of the machine are the three
clials for selecting and adjusting the different types
of stitching.
I
l. Pattern scale
-{bove the three dials is a pattern scale which
helps 1'ou to choose the stitch you desire. The stitch r
s1'mbols correspond to the stitches on the various ffirEqEBB HmrE
seam formers. The colors show you how to set the
three dials. A, B and C produce utility stitches,
D. E and F decorative stitches.

2. Srirch selector
The upper left dial is the stitch selector by means
oi uhich -vou choose the stitch you desire in ac-
cordance u'ith the symbols marked on it.

3. Srirclt length dial


The upper right dial adjusts the stitch length and it
.s graduated from 0 to 4. The micro-graduation be-
2
:i,. len 0 and 0,5 permits precision adjustment of the
.nal1er stitch lengths.

4. Stitch tvidth dial


\\ ith the lower dial you adjust the zig-zag stitch
riidth from 0 to 4 (in pulled-out position the stitch
sidth dial works as buttonhole dial as explained
on page 30).

5, Reverse sewing
In the center of the stitch length dial is a button
lor reverse sewing. By pressing this button in, the
machine will sew in reverse, and will resume normal
foru'ard sewing as soon as it is released. This is very
useful when, for example, backtacking at the end of
a seam.
19
Straight stitching

I
I o a
the needle is in its highest position.
T Set the left-hand dial (the stitch se-
T

o
lector) to the straight stitching symbol
I C - - - - - -). The upper right dial (the
I stitch length dial) is graduated from
T
I 0 to 4 and is set to the desired len-eth
T of stitch, normally 2. The lower dial.

E Zig-zag stitching
Turn the handwheel towards you un-

Set the left-hand dial (the stitch
selector) to the zig-zag symbol. The
upper right dial, the stitch length
dial, is set to the desired length of
stitch. The lower dial, the stitch
width dial, should be set to the
desired width of stitch. Choose a suit-
able combination of stitch length and
stitch width. The stitch width and
length can be adjusted while the ma-
chine is running. You can set the
zig-zag regardless of which seam form-
er is in the machine.

casting in elastic, thin or easily frayed
fabrics and for darning and mending.

-
Selecting the stitch
Stitches of all seam formers are shown on the next
page. The stitches of seam formers A, B and C are
utility stitches, i.e. they are designed to facilitate a
special type of sewing or for sewing in a special
kind of fabric. Stitches of seam formers D, E and
F are decorative stitches.

In certain cases a utility stitch may also provide a

decorative effect.

The purpose for which the stitch is to be used will


of course determine the stitch you select. Some
stitches are nevertheless used for the samo or similar
purposes and your choice will then be determined
by the nature of the fabric. Applications for the
various stitches are described in the following pages
but in each case you should try a few stitches in the
material you intend to use and compare the results
to judge which is best.

n
-ll
-
Changing the seam former
Set the dot on the stitch selector opposite the indi-
cator red dot, as shown al left, and take out the
seam former at the back of the machine and re-
place it with the seam former you wish to use.

After having placed the seam former in position,


press in and at the same time turn it until you can
feel that it is engaged.

The overlock stitch sews a stretch-
able seam and finishes the seam allow-

ance in one operation. It can be
used for all fabrics but is particularly
suitable where narrow, supple seams

o are required in garments of double-


knit (jersey), sweater fabric, swim-
suit fabric and similar fabrics. When
used for sewing the various parts of
a garment together, the overlock
stitch replaces both elastic straight
stitching and zig-zag overcasting. It
may also be used for attaching col-
lars, cuffs, etc.

The elastic straight stitch is a triple-
lock straight stitch combining stretch-
ability and strength. The stretchability
makes it useful for sewing in jersey
and other stretch fabrics. It is also
used for crotch sewing and sewing on
the bias for sleeve insertion.
The elastic straight stitch can also be
used for decorative purposes.

Blindstitching is used for hemming
skirts, for example, without the stitch-
o o es showing on the right side. As 1'ou
will see from the sketch, it consists of
four straight stitches and one zig-zag

o stitch.

26
You will find the blindstitching presser foot 4I 14
228in the accessory box. Attach it in the same way
as the regular presser foot.

Fold the fabric as shown in the sketch and then set


all the dials to the purple symbols. This is an average
setting, which means that you can either increase
or decrease the stitch length to vary the distance
bet-*'een the catches. Before beginning to sew, you
mi-eht rvish to engage the power gear. Make sure
that the fold line of the fabric follows the guide line
of the presser foot.

The stitch width may also be varied. In the far left


illustration can be seen how the stitches fail to reach
the fold line of the fabric, indicating you should in-
crease the stitch width or make sure that the fold
line of the fabric exactly follows the guide line.
In the middle illustration the stitch width has been
increased too much, leading to excessive "bite", in-
dicating you should decrease the stitch width.
In the right illustration is shown how a correctly
sewn blindstitched hem should look. The seam
catches only one or two threads of the fold line.

Carry out fine adjustment of the yellow and blue
patterns by means of the stitch length knob until
o
the pattern is neat and even. Remember to start a

33
Buttonholes
In order to sew buttonholes, .rzou should chan-se
( over to the buttonhole foot (4i 11650). You will
r, find it in the accessory box and it is attached in the
=
Upper Under * same way as the ordinary snap-on presser foot. The
side side buttonhole foot has graduated markings to help 1'ou
make the buttonholes the same length.
Loosen the upper thread tension by turning the
o a thread tension dial to the buttonhole symbol, if 1'ou
wish.
The buttonhole will look better, if you use a fine
thread.
@
Mark on the fabric where you want to place the
buttonhole.
Always first test sew a buttonhole and adjust the
o
stitch setting.
Begin as usual by making sure that the needle is
in the highest position. Set the stitch selector and
the stitch length dial to the buttonhole symbol.

I Set the stitch rvidth dial to 0, pull it out towards


you. Then turn it to the right to 1. Put-the fabric
under the presser foot, remembering that the ma-
chine begins to sew in reverse. The buttonhole-sew-
ing is shown step by step on the next page.

34
Start sewing with the pulled-out stitch width dial
at 1. Note that the machine sews the first column
of zig-zag stitching in reverse, If the stitches are not
sufficiently close, reduce the stitch length slightly.
\\-hen you have sewn this column to the right length,
stop the machine with the needle raised out of the
cloth and turn the dialto2.

The next step is to form the first closing bar. Serv


-l ,1 stitches while holding back the fabric or lower-
ing the feed dog. Then stop the machine with the
needle raised out of the cloth and turn the dial to 3.

\orr seq, the other column of zig-zag stitching the


same distance as the first one. Stop the machine
q ith the needle raised out of the cloth and turn the
Cial to 4.

In position 4 the machine makes the final closing


har. lv{ake 3-4 stitches while holding back the
labric or lowering the feed dog, stopping the ma-
chine ri'ith the needle raised. Then turn the dial to
0 and lock the threads with a few stitches while
holding back the fabric or lowering the feed dog.
\\-hen finished making buttonholes, press in the
Cial at 0, after which it will again function as the
ordinary stitch width dial.

thread might produce a difference in the appearan.3
of the two columns of zig-zag stitches. This can be
adjusted with the outer ring of the reverse seuir.:
button. Normally the ring should have such ? pr--r:r-
tion that the setting points are opposite each other.

If the rigirt column ol zig-zag stitches looks closer


than the left column, you can turn the ring slightlt
to the left.

Buttonhole knife
The buttonhole knife (4015 399), which you will
find in the accessory box, is equipped with a safety
cap which, when taken off, can be pushed onto the
back of the knife and thus provides a good handle.

\\-hen vou have finished sewing all of the button-


hoies. it is time to cut them. Do this by piercing
the fabric at right angles until the curved edge
reaches down to the buttonhole.

Then inciine the knife more or less parallel to the


cloth and move it carefully forward so as not to cut
through the end of the buttonhole. The small red
bead serves as a guide.

Helplul hint:
You can also cut the buttonhole to the middle and
then cut the same way from the other direction.

37
Reinforced buttonholes
Garments subject to heavy wear or buttons subjec:
to special strain ma)' sometimes require e\ eil
q stronger buttonholes and this is horv 1'ou make
F them:
Pull out the width dial on 0, turn it to 1 and se*
the first column in exactly the same s'a)' as for ar:
\ ordinary buttonhole but with slightl,v ionger stit;hes.

When the coiumn is sufficiently long, stop the ma-


chine with the needle raised and turn the dial to 3.
Sew the second column without making an1' closing
bar.

ii
When the second column is of the same length as the
first, stop sewing with the needle raised from the
fabric. Then continue by turning the width dial to
1 again and sewing the first column once more. If
d you should have difficulty with the feed, increase the
F; stitch length sliglrtly.

I: N-

38
When this is finished, set the dial to 2 and make
three or four closing bar stitches while holding back
the fabric or lowering the feed dog. Make sure that
the needle is raised when making the next setting of
the u,idth dial.

\o\\ turn the dial to 3 and sew the second column


Jnce more.

Finish off the buttonhole by turning the width dial


to 4 and sewing three or four closing stitches while
holding back the fabric or lowering the feed dog.
Then turn the dial to 0 and lock the threads by
sewing a few stitches while holding back the fabric
or lowering the feed dog.

a o symbol ( E ) for the left-l-rand starting po.i:;c':-
Lower the feed dog b1' pressing the drop feed push-
button inwards and dou.nu.ards so that the button :.

-
carefully that the needle goes through the center
of first one hole and then the other. Depress the
foot control without disturbing the position ol the
button. Hold both thread ends behind the bracket
and serv 5-6 stitches. Then mot,e to the other holes
@ and repeat the process. Set the stitch width dial
to 0 and lock the thread.
When the button has been sewn on and you rvish to
return to ordinary sewing, press the feed dog lou'er-
ing button inwards/upwards, so that it gets back to
its previous normal position.

Button reed
When serving buttons on garments, a "stem" is often
desirecl so that the button stands slightly away fronr
the fabric. You can use the button reed (41 11732i
for this. Use the thin end when ser.ving buttons on
thin fabrics, the thick end for heavier fabrics. N'Iark
the place where the button is to be sewn on and
place the garment under the bracket without lower-
ing the presser bar. Insert the button reed as shol'n
in the illustration, with the marking in the center
of the opening. Place the button on top and lower
the presser bar.

40
Raised seams
Erchange the ordinary needle for a twin needle and
be sure to see that it is pressed up high into the
needle clamp. Change to the raised seam presser
foot (41 11 389) and fit the raised seam attachment Upper side Under side
(10 15 421) with its straight edge toward you. If you
riish to use a gimp cord, lay this under the raised
seam attachment when you put it on. In order to
prevent the threads from becoming entangled, it is
advisabie to thread one at a time. P1ace a spool of
thread on each of the spool pins and thread on both
sides of the middle tension disc. For the rest you
tl.rread as usual, of course one thread in each of
?
tl.ie needies.
Then adjust the machine for straight stitching. The
height of the raised seam is adjusted by means of
rhe thread tension the harder the thread tension
-
the hi-eher the seam will be. If you are using a gimp
cord. first pul1 it out well behind the presser foot
and then it will only be necessary to see that it runs
i-reelr rrlrile you are sewing.

Parallel raised seams


If -vou wish to sew several parallel seams, you can
use the grooves on the bottom of the presser foot
as edge guides. Place the previously sewn seam to
the left or to the right of the one you are about to
sew and let the presser foot guide the work.

to adjust the presser foot pressure to obtain the
desired result.

Glide plate
The glide plate, (41 11 866) fits the utility stitch
presser foot 41 11 383.
Peeloff the protective paper and press on the self-
adhering side of the glide plate against the under-
side of the presser foot.
The glide plate can be used when sewing in foam
plastic, plastic-coated fabric and leather imitations
to minimize the risk of these materials adhering to
the presser foot. For other friction surfaces you
could also use silicone spray, 41 12405.
42
Zipper foot
The zipper foot (41 12989) can be attached so that
it comes either to the right or to the left of the
needle. This makes it possible to sew on both sides
of the zipper without turning the work.

>

Darning foot
Set the needle to the highest position and then the
darning foot (41 12 897) can be attached in the same
\\a,v as the other snap-on-presser feet, i.e. the trans-
rerse pin is pressed into the attachment.
The action of the presser foot is accomplished by
means of a vibrator. Engage the vibrator by turning
rhe dial for the presser foot pressure (lower left,
page 18) to the symbol ( #
) . Don't forget to lower
the feed dog before you start darning.

43
Special marker stitch foot
&
By means of the special marker stitch foot (41 13
931) you can transfer instructions from the paper
-
E pattern to the fabric in the following way:
2

After you have attached the special marker stitch


foot and set the needle to the highest position. set
the stitch selector to the zig-zag symbol, the stitch
a a
length dial to 4 and the stitch width dial to 2.
Set the upper thread tension dial to the buttonhole
symbol.

Attach the pattern parts carefully on the fabric


with pins. Cut out darts and other markings on the
pattern so that you can sew there. Sew round the
pattern part, as close to the paper edge as possible.
Draw the parts of the fabric apart and cut the seam
between the layers of fabric. The thread now remains
as small tufts and shows where to sew the seams.

44
Care of the machine
In order to serve you satisfactorily, your new sewing =t
machine requires cleaning. The throat plate (needle
plate) should occasionally be removed and the teeth
of the feed dog brushed clean by means of the
cleaning brush (40 15 555) which you'll find in the
box of accessories.
Rernove the throat plate by loosening the screws.
The left one is accessible if the upper handle part of
the screwdriver is inserted under the face plate.

\\'henever necessary, the bobbin case and shuttle


should also be brushed clean. Sizing or finishing
compounds from the fabric can adhere to the center
stud of the shuttle and cause dissonance, in such a -
case the stud should be cleaned with the cleaning
brush. Also check that any thread remainders, tTwrr
n'ound around the stud, are removed.
