Viking Huskylock 936 User Manual

Model 936 features automatic Stitch length and Differential feed. You can override the automatic 

settings as follows:

Normal stitch length is 2.5 mm. You may change the stitch length between 0.8 (for rolled edge) and 

5 mm, using the Sewing Advisor’s manual function.

1. Press cursor button          until the setting number for the stitch length blinks.

2. Press plus or minus button               to select the desired length number.

3. Start to sew. The stitch length is adjusted automatically to the number.

4. If you want to store this setting, you can use the memory function.

See “2-5. Manual Mode (page 12)”.

Differential feed helps you to sew perfect seams on all kinds of fabric from light  woven to heavy 

knits.

This Huskylock has two feed teeth. The front teeth (for differential feed) can be adjusted to feed 

more or less in proportion to the rear.

The ratio can be set between 0.5 and 2.5.

For light weight fabrics, set closer to 0.5. The front teeth move slower to hold fabric taut. For heavy 

weight one, set closer to 2.5. The front feed teeth move faster to prevent distortion and stretching of 

fabric. 

The differential feed also helps to gather woven fabrics.

For maximum gathers, set to 2.5 and increase stitch length.

 

1.  Press cursor button          until the setting number for the differential feed blinks.

2. Press plus or minus button               until the number becomes to what you want to change.

3. Start to sew. The differential feed is adjusted automatically to the number value.

4. If you want to store this setting, you can use the memory function.

See “2-5. Manual Mode (page 12)”.

Note: First sew a few test stitches on a piece of fabric you are going to use, referring the chart 

below.

Note: The differential feed ratio and the stitch length are related to each other. Their minimum and 

maximum values may be limited by their combinations and selected stitch patterns.
