You use it to select the width of the stitch you want to use in a zig zag stitch.

How do you use the zig zag function on your Kenmore sewing machine model 158.12270?
I do not beleive the zig zag works as mine does not, looking at the top of the machine where the zig zag knob is located the internal cam seems to be on backwards thus reandering it useless. The machine sews excellent in streight stitch. sorry!
How do you finish seams that ravel?
Optimally, a serger is the best way to finish material that ravels. If you do not have a serger, you can finish the raw edge with a regular zig-zag stitch. If you don't have a zig-zag stitch on your machine, you can simply reinforce your seam with another row of straight stitching.

Does the Kenmore model 158.13410 sewing machine do straight stitching?
It probably does but I couldn't find an exact match for it on managemylife.com where you can get free copies of most kenmore manuals. I did find a manual for the Kenmore 153.13141 which shows the manual for the 1341 model kenmore. You might want to check and see if this is your machine or close to it. [I have this machine, and yes it does have a straight stitch. You simply set it to the zig zag stitch setting, and then set your stitch width to "0". It will then perform a straight stitch. -mmo)
