This machine uses cams for most of the extra ornamentive stitches. There are a handful of stitches available without a cam -- these stitches show on the upper left control knob. The upper right control knob handles the stitch length. The bottom control knob handles the stitch width; it also selects one of the four cam patterns when a cam is inserted.

The upper right control knob offers several stitches -- or you can set it to the circle. When the circle is set, control reverts to whatever cam may be inserted.

Here's one of the "gotcha's" -- this machine is susceptible to cam woes. Camshaft breaks, camshaft locking ... things like that. One symptom of this problem is that zig-zag stitching will not work -- the machine will be stuck in straight stitch no matter what stitch width you select. Unfortunately for me, this machine is one of those so afflicted. I can only use straight stitching.

Another problem this machine may have is that it may stick in "reverse" feed. When I first received this machine, it did stick in reverse. I fiddled with it a bit and was able to get it feeding normally again. Usually stuck reverse feed can be corrected by using Triflow or some other method to "unstick" the innards.
