6.15 Setting the stitch length

The special sewing machine 869 has, depending on the subclass, as

standard equipment two s etting wheels. Thus, two different stitch

lengths can be sewn, that are activated by actuating the key 4 (see

chapter 6.15).

The two stitch lengths are s et with the setting wheels 1 and 2 on the

machine arm.

–

Set the higher stitch length with the upper setting wheel 1.

Setting 1 = min. stitch length

Setting 9 = max. stitch length

–

Set the smaller stitch length with the lower setting wheel 2.

Setting 1 = min. stitch length

Setting 9 = max. stitch length

The stitch length are the s ame for both, forward and backward sewing.

–

For the manual sewing of tacks, push the stitch regulator lever 3

downwards.

The machine sews backward as long as the stitch regulator lever 3 is

pressed down.

Please note:

In order to facilitate the setting of stitch lengths, the stitch length that

remains unchanged should be activated with key 2 (see chapter 6.15).

ATTENTION! Danger of breakage!

The stitch length set with the lower setting wheel 2 must not exceed

the stitch length set with the upper setting wheel 1.
