1. Drop the feed dogs. Place the button under the foot,

making sure to align the holes with the horizontal

slot in the foot. Lower the presser foot to hold the button

in place.

2. Determine which stitch width setting matches the

distance between the button holes. The needle must go

safely through each hole when sewing.

Unthread the needle to help you determine the zigzag

width.

3. Thread the needle. Turn the handwheel, so that the

needle is in its leftmost position, and then drop the

needle through the right buttonhole.

4. Start the machine and sew about 10 stitches.

5. Sew the other row of holes (if applicable) using the steps

above. Trim excess threads from both sides of the fabric.
