3. The adjusting screw regulates the fullness of gathers or pleats. When

turned in (clockwise) to its limit with the adjusting finger in place, the attachment

is set for its deepest pleat. When turned out (counter-clockwise) to its limit and

the adjusting finger out of action, the ruffler gives only a hint of fullness.

Activating Parts

The ruffling blade and the separator blade are of blue steel and hold the

material to be gathered between them. The ruffling blade forms the gathers or

pleats by carrying the fabric to the needle according to the spacing and fullness

to which the ruffler is adjusted. The separator guide is slotted to guide seam

edges evenly and to separate the ruffle strip from the material to which the ruffle

is attached.

Preparation

Raise the needle to its highest point. Locate the attachment on the machine in

place of the regular presser foot, and at the same time fit the fork of the driving

lever over the needle clamp screw. Make sure both the presser bar screw and

the needle clamp screw are tightened securely.

Gathering

Set adjusting lever on No. 1 setting.
