DIFFERENTIAL FEED APPLICATIONS
Please refer to pages 42 - 45 DIFFERENTIAL FEED.
Differential feed is designed to minimize puckering and wavering.
It is also very effective for gathering.
1. Puckering
Puckering tends to occur on woven or sheer fabrics.
To obtain pucker-free seams, set the differential feed control dial at less than 1.
2. Wavering
Wavering tends to occur on knitted or stretchable fabrics.
To obtain waver-free seams, set the differential feed control dial at more than 1.
3. Gathering
Differential feed makes gathering easier on lightweight fabric. Use it on waistlines, sleeve
heads, sleeve bottoms and ruffles, etc.
Set the differential feed control dial between 1.5 and 2 to obtain the best gathering effect for
your use.
IMPORTANT
The exact adjustment depends on the thickness and elasticity of fabric. Even the stitch length can
influence the setting. The longer the stitches, the more the fabric is contracted.
Always do a test run with a piece of actual fabrics you use and find the best settings.
