It is mainly used for straight stitches and zigzag stitches longer than 1.0. The button locks the foot in a horizontal position helping to sew over multiple layered seams. B. Buttonhole Foot Sew oversized buttonholes for novelty buttons or a decorative accent. The two cutout grooves on the underside of the foot ensure that the buttonhole sides lie parallel to each other. C: Overlock Foot Prevent fabric edges from raveling by finishing the edge with a zigzag stitch. The prongs on the foot help the stitch lie flatter and reduces puckering. Use with medium weight fabrics. D. Hemmer Foot Insert the fabric into the spiral on this foot. The spiral rolls the fabric, creating a rolled hem. An easy, professional way to sew hems. E. Zipper Foot Use when sewing zippers into place to avoid the foot riding on top of the zipper coil. Attach either to the left or right of the needle to sew each side of the zipper. F. Satin Stitch Foot The cutout on the underside of the foot is designed to accommodate dense stitch formation. Ideal when sewing satin and decorative stitches. G: Blind Hem Foot, Adjustable The adjustable guide on the foot helps ensure that the needle catches only one or two fibers of the hem, resulting in an invisible hemline. The guide can also be adjusted to create pintucks. R: Automatic Buttonhole Foot Place button in foot to determine the buttonhole size. The machine will automatically sew the corresponding buttonhole. Quilt Guide The quilt guide is helpful when sewing parallel, evenly spaced rows of stitching. 5 Extension Table and Free Arm Extension Table The extension table provides more sewing space to make sewing easier. The extension table can be easily removed for free arm sewing. Pull the end of the extension table away from the machine, as shown. Free arm sewing is good for circle areas like sleeves, waistbands and pant legs. If socks, knee or elbow areas need mending, the free arm will be best to use. 1 2 Push the table back into place to reattach the extension table, aligning the pin 1 with the hole 2 . Foot Pressure Dial Set the pressure dial at "3" for regular sewing. Depending on the weight of your fabric and sewing technique, you may need to change the pressure of the presser foot on the fabric. Reduce the pressure for appliqué, cut work, quilting and drawn work. 6 Presser Foot Lever and Additional Presser Foot Clearance Use this lever 1 to raise and lower the presser foot. When the presser foot is raised, tension discs are open. When the presser foot is lowered, tension discs are closed and sewing can begin. You can raise the presser foot about 6mm (1/4") higher than the normal up position for easy removal of the presser foot or to place heavy fabrics under the presser foot. Pull the presser foot lever up beyond the normal up position. 1 How to Snap Presser Foot Off and On To snap off: 2 3 1 Hand turn the flywheel toward you to raise the needle. OR Press the Up/Down Needle key until the needle is in an up position (Model 3230 only). Raise the presser foot. Press the presser foot release lever 1 . The presser foot will drop off. To snap on: Place the presser foot so that the pin 2 on the foot lies just under the groove of the shank 3 . Lower the shank to attach the foot. How to Remove and Attach the Shank 3 2 Raise the presser foot. Turn the setscrew 1 counterclockwise with the screwdriver to remove the shank. When attaching, align hole in shank 2 with hole in presser bar 3 and insert setscrew. Turn setscrew clockwise to tighten. 1 1 7 Thread Tension Dial Auto Tension (Model 3230 only) 1 The "Auto" setting on the tension dial is suitable for most sewing techniques. The setting mark 1 should be aligned with "Auto" unless otherwise indicated. Tension Adjustment for Straight Stitch In straight seams, the needle thread 2 and the bobbin thread 3 should lock together in the center of the two layers of fabric. (Model 3210 only ­ Needle thread tension can range from 3-5 with setting mark 1 usually on 4.) If you look at the top and bottom of the stitch, you will notice that there are no gaps; each stitch is smooth and even. When adjusting needle thread tension, the higher the number, the tighter the needle thread. Here are some reasons you may need to change the thread tension dial: 3 1. The fabric is stiff or heavy. 2. You are sewing more than two layers of fabric. 3. The stitch you are using needs the threads to not lock together in the center of the fabric. · Tension is too tight 2 The bobbin thread shows through on the topside of the fabric and it will feel bumpy. Turn the dial to align the setting mark with a lower number to loosen the needle thread tension. · Tension is too loose The needle thread shows through on the underside of the fabric and it will feel bumpy. Turn the dial to align the setting mark with a higher number to tighten the needle thread tension. · Adjusting Tension for Zigzag and Embroidery The upper thread tension should be slightly looser when sewing a zigzag or a satin stitch. The upper thread should appear slightly on the underside of the fabric. 8 Seam Allowance Lines 1 2 The lines on the needle plate and bobbin cover plate help measure seam width. The number shows the space between the center needle position (set stitch width/needle position dial at 0) and the line on the needle plate. The numbers at the front are in millimeters. The numbers at the back are in inches. 3 1 Center needle position 2 Edge of fabric 3 Needle plate guidelines 1 Foot Control and Sewing Speed Sewing speed is determined by how hard you press on the foot control 1 . The harder you press on the foot control, the faster the machine runs. 2 Model 3230 only Slide the speed control lever 2 to vary the sewing speed. For a faster speed, slide it up; for a slower speed, slide it down. How to Drop the Feed Dog 3 2 The feed dog must always be up for regular sewing and down for special sewing, such as free motion embroidery/ quilting, button sewing, etc. Remove extension table. Push the feed dog lever to the right to lower the feed dog. When special sewing is complete, push the feed dog lever to the left. Hand turn the flywheel to raise the feed dog. Or, Press the Up/Down Needle key until feed dog is up (Model 3230 only). 1 Reverse Stitch Lever The machine will sew backwards while you press down the reverse stitch lever. 9 SECTION II Getting Ready to Sew Connecting the Machine to Power Supply and Foot Control Your machine is equipped with a detachable power cord. Before connecting the power cord, make sure the voltage and frequency shown on the machine are identical to your electrical power. 2 4 Check that the power/light switch 1 is in the off position. Insert the machine plug 2 and foot control plug 3 into the machine and the power supply plug 4 into the wall socket. Your machine may come equipped with a polarized plug (one prong wider than the other). A polarized plug reduces the risk of electrical shock. This plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not modify the plug in any way. 3230 1 3 Switch ON the machine. 3210 IMPORTANT: Before using your sewing machine the first time, place waste fabric under the presser foot and run the machine without thread for a few minutes. Wipe away any excess oil. For Your Safety 1. Always turn off the power/light switch first and then unplug from the electrical outlet. Examples: · when leaving the machine unattended · when cleaning the machine 2. Always turn off the power/light switch: · when attaching or removing parts such as needle, presser foot, needle plate · when threading needle or bobbin 3. Do not use extension cords or plug adapters. 4. Do not touch plug with wet hands. 5. Do not place anything on the foot control. 6. Do not place heavy items on cords. Do not subject cords to heat. Do not use damaged cords. Have the cord repaired immediately. 7. While the machine is in operation, always keep your eye on the sewing area and do not touch any moving parts such as the thread take-up lever, flywheel or needle. 10 Language Selection (Model 3230 only) There are six languages built into the programming. Press and hold the language key 1 until the desired language appears in the display. Choose from: English 1 German Spanish French Dutch Italian Up/Down Needle Key (Model 3230 only) If the needle is up, it will go down to its lowest position when you press this key. The needle will continue to stop in the down position. If the needle is down, it will go up to its highest position when you press this key. The needle will continue to stop in the up position. NOTE: When machine is switched on, the machine will stop with the needle in its highest position. 11 Weight Very Light Light Fabric Chiffon, Fine Lace, Organdy Batiste, Lawn, Crepe de Chine, Challis Handkerchief Linen, Crepe, Taffeta, Satin Needle Type Universal Ball Point Stretch Needle Size 9 (65) 9 (65) 11 (75) 11 (75) 12 (80) 11 (75) 11 (75) 11 (75) 14 (90) Selecting the Correct Needle and Thread There are many kinds of fabrics, threads and needles. It is important to use the correct ones together. Always purchase good quality thread. It should be strong, smooth and even in thickness. Use the same thread for needle and bobbin. Always test thread and needle size on a scrap piece of fabric. In general, fine threads (the larger the number, the finer the thread) and needles (the smaller the number, the finer the needle) are used for sewing lightweight fabrics and heavier threads and larger needles are used for sewing heavyweight fabrics. There are many specialty needles available from your sewing machine dealer. Check your needles frequently for rough or blunt tips. Snags and runs in knits, fine silks and silk-like fabrics are permanent and are often caused by damaged needles.

OR Press the Up/Down Needle key until the needle is in an up position (Model 3230 only). Lower the presser foot. Switch OFF the machine. Turn the needle clamp screw 1 counterclockwise to loosen. Remove the needle from the clamp. Insert the new needle into the clamp 2 with the flat side to the back, pushing it up as far as it will go against the stopper pin 3 . Tighten the clamp screw firmly. 2 Always purchase good quality needles. Change needle often. Never use a bent or broken needle as it may cause skipped stitches or thread breakage. Defective needles can ruin the fabric. To determine if the needle is defective, place the flat side of the needle on something flat (a needle plate, piece of glass, etc.). The gap between the needle and the flat surface should be even. 12 Needle Definitions 1 The illustration identifies the main parts of a sewing machine needle. 1 2 3 4 5 6 Body Shaft Long groove (round side of needle) Short groove (flat side of needle) Eye Point 2 3 4 5 6 Universal ­ an all-purpose needle that handles most woven and knit fabrics.
