Sewing With The Free Arm; Seam Guide; Quilting Guide - Medion MD 11836 Bedienungsanleitung

Sewing with the free arm

The free arm (16) enables you to sew tube-shaped pieces more ea-
sily. This function is very useful e.g. when sewing sleeves and
trouser legs.
You can easily turn your sewing machine into a free-arm machine
by removing the table extension and accessories box from the se-
wing machine
The free arm (16) is particularly useful for the following work:
-- Repairing elbows and knees in garments
-- Sewing sleeves, in particular on smaller garments
-- Appliqué, embroidery or hemming edges, cuffs or trouser legs.
-- Sewing elasticated waistbands on skirts or trousers.

Seam guide

The seam guide helps you to create straight and parallel seams alo-
ng the edge of the fabric.
• Slightly turn the knurled screw of the guide into the threaded
hole to the right of the needle plate (19).
• Adjust the guide to the required distance and then tighten the
screw.
The needle plate (19) contains a number of guide lines to help you.

Quilting guide

• Push the quilting guide underneath the clamp spring to the in-
tended depth.
• Mark the first seam with tailor's chalk and sew it.
• You use the quilting guide to sew the second seam parallel to the
first.
• The distance between the seams can be adjusted by moving the
bar in the direction of the arrow.
