I have misplaced the manual for my Brothers LS1217. Somehow the setting got switched to zig-zag. I need to reset it to straight stitch. Can anyone tell me how to do this? Thanks |

Hi Sonatamom, If there is no dial or switch to change from one stitch to another, then perhaps you have to set the width to 0 in order to sew a straight stitch. Hope this helps. Take care,
Donna |

Donna, thank you so much. It worked. I don't know why I changed the setting. I need to find my manual and learn how to use the machine. I haven't used it very much since I got it. Jewel |

| I have a Singer Golden Touch and Sew 750 that has been going strong since 1971. There are various sources around for manuals but www.singerco.com/accessories/manuals.html lists them all along with availability and price. Just another option. |
