Jaguar Pro5 [56/96] Straight stitching

STRAIGHT STITCHING

Straight stitch is most frequently used for all types of sewing.

Let’s begin by following the steps below.

1. SETTINGS

Presser foot - General Purpose Foot

Thread tension control - 4

NOTE: Based upon the weight of the fabric, slight “ne

tuning” of the tension may be desired.

A. Thread tension control

B. Programmable needle up/down button

C. Reverse stitch button

D. Start/stop button

E. Presser foot lifter

F. Sewing speed control

NOTE: Since a straight stitch has no width, the stitch

width control is used to change the needle position.

2. Pull both threads under the presser foot toward the back of

the machine, leaving about 6” (15cm) clear.

3. Place the fabric under the presser foot and lower the

presser foot lifter.

4. Turn the hand wheel counter clockwise until the needle

enters the fabric.

5. Start the machine. Guide the fabric gently with your hands.

When reaching the edge of the fabric, stop the sewing

machine.

NOTE: The Needle Plate has both Metric and Inch

Markings as an aid for guiding your fabric when

sewing a seam.

6. First turn the handwheel counter clockwise until the needle

is at its highest position, then raise the presser foot, draw

the fabric to the rear and cut o󰀨 excess threads with the

thread cutter located on the top of face cover as shown.

NOTE: To secure the stitching and avoid raveling,

press the reverse stitch button and sew a few stitches

at the start and end of the seam
