    Default Morse Fotomatic IV Model 4400 zigzag help

    I recently purchased a Morse Fotomatic IV model 4400 machine at the thrift shop. Seems to be in good condition, but a little dirty. After cleaning and oiling, I am only able to straight sew. I want to be able to zigzag and do blanket stitch but I can't seem to figure it out. Any help appreciated.

    I'm pretty sure this model is one that has a plastic camstack and/or plastic gears. If they're cracked then all you have is a very pretty straight stitch machine.

    Kathy, this is a link to free manuals. I gave this particular machine to my granddaughter. It is a very good machine.
