8 THE 2-IN-1 OPEN ARM SE\NING SURFACE Your open arm sewing machine is designed with an exclusive 2-in-1 sewing surface. For all regular sewing, it's a flat bed machine. Then by simply removing the extension table, it becomes an open arm machine, to simplify sewing on any hard to reach area. To remove the extension table, lift the left side of the case up and away. To attach, set the extension table studs into the holes of the mc;ichine base and press down. The drawer in the extension table is for storing the accessories. Here are some of the many uses for your open arm sewing machine: Mending and repairing pantlegs Darning socks Blind hem stitching cuffs Button and buttonhole sewing on sleeves Embroidery on cuffs and sleeves All of the features of flat bed sewing are now available to you on an open arm machine allowing you more versatility than ever before. 5

9 SELECTING NEEDLE & THREAD.. I I - Best results can be obtained only when you use the correct needle and thread for the fabric being sewn. Lightweight fabrics require a thin needle and fine thread; heavier fabrics, a thicker needle and coarser thread. Too thick of needle can cause skipped stitches on delicate fabrics; too thin of needle may bend or break on heavy fabrics. Never use a needle that is bent, or blunt at the point. There should be a similarity between the fiber of the fabric and the fiber of the thread. This is important because the thread should react as the fabric does to repeated dry cleanings or washings, bleaches, and a hot iron. The knit needle (with blue shank) is designed especially for sewing synthetic woven stretch and knit fabrics, as well as lingerie, elastic and other lightweight fabric that is usually difficult to sew. It is designed with a ball point that enables the needle to penetrate the fabric without cutting the fibers and with a deep long groove which protects the thread from interference by knits that hug the needle. Correct needle length is 1-1 '1».". 6

10 NEEDLE 1 THREAD AND FABRIC CHART The chart shows size and type of thread, and needle size. for various weights and types of fabrics. Size means the fineness or thickness of both needle and thread. Use the same thread for needle and bobbin. DELICATE: chiffon, tulle, organdy, sheer lace and net #60 Mercerized Cotton A Silk Fine Polyester Synthetic 9 LIGHTWEIGHT: batiste, voile, taffeta, crepe, velvet, satin, surah, peau de soie, brocade, tricot, matte jersey, single knits #50 Mercerized Cotton A Silk Fine Polyester Synthetic 11 MEDIUM WEIGHT: gingham, seersucker, percale, pique, linen, lightweight woolens, chintz, fine corduroy, velveteen, suitings, double knits, spandex, stretch terry, sweater knits #50 Mercerized Cotton A Silk Polyester Synthetic 14 MEDIUM HEAVY: denim, duck, sailcloth, gabardine, tweed, drapery fabrics, vinyl, corduroy, bonded fabric, short-pile fabrics, heavy knits HEAVY: coatings, upholstery fabric, canvas, deep-pile fabrics Heavy-Duty Mercerized Cotton A Silk Polyester Synthetic Heavy-Duty Mercerized Cotton Polyester Synthetic

12 REMOVING BOBBIN CASE AND BOBBIN In preparing your machine for sewing, it is necessary to wind a bobbin with thread, place it properly in bobbin case, and insert bobbin and case in shuttle body of machine. This Montgomery Ward Sewing Machine was shipped from factory with a bobbin and case in position as for sewing. To remove the bobbin for winding with thread, remove the extension table first, then: 2 Open bobbin case cover 9

13 \NINDING THE BOBBIN - I ~ When your machine has been properly set f... up or winding the bobbin, it will look like illustration for at ~1ght. Th~ sequence of steps this operation is described a d illustrated on next pag:. 10

14 :j GOOD NOT GOOD- ~==- NOTGOO~ ~ SCREW~llj - NOTE If bobbin winds unevenly, loosen screw which holds bobbin tension disc and move disc up or down. as required. to align it with bobbin winder. When the tension disc is properly positioned. tighten the screw 1 1

15 .. I I - THREADING THE MACHINE There is only one correct way to thread your machine for sewing. The illustration at right shows machine completely threaded. The sequence of steps is described and illustrated on next page. 1 2

16 I~ 1 Raise presser foot lifter. 2. Turn hand wheel toward you to raise thread take-up lever to its highest point. 3. Place a spool of thread on spool pin Shp thread under arm cover thread guide and bring thread forward over the arm and through front thread guide. 4. Draw the thread down around and between the tension discs from right to left. Bring the thread all the way to the right and hook the thread over the top of the check spring from right to left. 5. Pull the thread under the large thread guide and slip into the hole of the thread take-up lever from right to left 13

17 REPLACING THE BOBBIN bobbin in case When bobbin has been wound with thread, it must be fitted properly into bobbin case...

19 SETTING LENGTH OF STITCH Your sewing machine can make from six to thirty stitches per inch. As a rule, firm, closely woven fabric takes a shorter stitch. Loosely woven fabrics sew best with a longer stitch. Very thick, bulky fabrics, whether firm or loosely woven, require a longer stitch. STITCH LENGTH REVER SE STITCH LENGTH REVERSE For shortest stitch, turn dial to " w;::::::11 ". For longest stitch. turn dial to " MOST NORMAL SEWING is done with stitch length dial set at 4 or 5. This produces a medium length stitch which makes a strong seam and is suitable for most fabrics... I I - REVERSE STITCHING Fabric normally moves from front to rear (away from the operator) when sewing. 1 6

20 STITCH SELECTOR DIAL The stitch selector dial shows the stitches your machine is capable of making automatically. Turn the stitch selector dial to the desired stitch. STITCH SELECTOR I STITCH \NIDTH DIAL STITCH WIDTH I The stitch width dial controls the width of the zigzag stitch. For wider zigzag width, turn dial to the right; the higher the number, the wider the stitch. 1 7

Remove the presser foot by pulling the presser foot release lever toward you. and the presser foot will be disengaged. 4. I- I 111 ' 5. ~ Place the desired foot below the presser foot holder so that the pin on the foot fits into the space between the presser foot holder bracket and the spring. Lower the presser bar by means of the presser foot lifter and the presser foot will snap into place. Certain presser feet cannot be constructed as snap-on feet, In those instances the presser foot holder must also be changed. 1. Turn the hand wheel tow ;11 you until the needle 1s at 11 highest point. 2. Turn the presser foot thu11,i screw away from you unl il foot can be slipped off. 3. Replace with the desired f, attachment: tighten thu 1111, screw using screwdriver I 1, the accessory kit to mak1 it is secure. 20 When a job is completed that required special adjustment of the controls or a special sewing foot, always return the settings to normal sewing position for straight sewing, and attach the Regular presser foot.

25 r REGULATING THREAD TENSION Thread tension must be properly balanced. If adjustment is required, it can usually be made by regulating upper thread tension -NOT bobbin thread. TOP OF FABRIC UPPER THREAD TENSION TOO TIGHT.. MUST DECREASE.. I I ~ BOTTOM OF FABRIC BOTH SIDES UPPER THREAD TENSION TOO LOOSE.. MUST INCREASE CORRECT When stitch is unsatisfactory and seam Puckers. tension may be too tight on both upper and bobbin threads. 22

26 STARTING TO SEW When you have followed the steps outlined up to this point, your machine is threaded and ready to sew. However, before actually working on your garment, use a scrap of the fabric you will be sewing to test the stitching. Some adjustment in stitch length or tension may be required. 23

33 BUTTONHOLE SE\NING A buttonhole consists of two parallel rows of satin stitches connected at the ends. Correct positioning of the fabric and accurate measuring and marking of the hole length are important in producing a professional-looking buttonhole. Fabric must be guided carefully so that lines of stitching will be straight and close together. but not touching. First work a sample buttonhole in the same fabric as the garment and adjust the stitch length within " 11 :::: ::::" " mark to make sure that you have the most suitable setting. Use a double thickness of fabric, and include interfacing for stability. The closer " 11:.::::: ::// " is to zero, the closer the stitches in the buttonhole.
