2. Setup and Installation

Before installing the hemmer, ensure your sewing machine is turned off and unplugged for safety. This hemmer attaches to your sewing machine using the existing attachment mounting holes located next to the needle plate on the machine bed.

1. Identify Mounting Holes: Locate the two screw holes on your sewing machine's bed, typically to the right of the needle plate.
2. Position the Hemmer: Align the two slots on the hemmer's mounting bracket with the screw holes on your machine.
3. Secure with Screws: Use the provided thumb screws to firmly attach the hemmer to your sewing machine. Hand-tighten the screws to ensure a secure fit without over-tightening.
4. Test Swing Mechanism: Once attached, gently swing the hemmer away from the needle area and back to ensure it moves freely and locks into position when needed.

3. Operating Instructions

The Double Fold Clean Finish Swing Hemmer is designed to guide fabric into a perfect double-fold hem, providing a professional and durable finish.

1. Prepare Fabric: Ensure the edge of your fabric is cut straight. For best results, a slight initial fold or ironed crease can help guide the fabric into the hemmer.
2. Insert Fabric: Gently feed the edge of your fabric into the scroll of the hemmer. The hemmer will automatically fold the fabric twice, creating a clean edge.
3. Begin Sewing: Lower your presser foot and needle. Start sewing slowly, guiding the fabric consistently through the hemmer. The hemmer will maintain the correct fold as you sew.
4. Maintain Tension: Ensure your sewing machine's tension is appropriate for your fabric type to achieve a smooth, even stitch.
5. Swing-Away Feature: When you need to access the needle area or switch to a different sewing operation, simply swing the hemmer away from the needle. It will remain attached to the machine, ready for use again.
