CORDING FOOT (TYPE B)

Type B Cording Foot

Use the cording foot with cord or yarn to reinforce the edge of knit fabrics and prevent stretching.
This also creates a padded edge adding shape and strength to home decorative projects and garments.

For your safety, turn off the power switch before changing any attachments

To create padded edges (with wide rolled hems):

1. Replace the foot with the cording foot.
2. Set the machine for 1-needle 3-thread wide rolled hemming (using the left needle). (Refer to the machine instruction book)
3. Set the lower knife in its rightmost position by turning the cutting width adjusting dial.
4. Raise the foot and insert the cord into the cord guiding hole and cord groove. Pull the cord behind the foot.
5. Place the fabric on top of the cord just in front of the upper knife. Make sure that the cord is aligned with the indicator line and start sewing slowly.
