To be honest I feel overwhelmed by the whole thing. I feel like not only do I not know what I am doing - I don't know how to set my machine or the thread...
Here's your manual:

Page 84 will help you out a little.
They don't mention setting the stitch length to 0, but to drop the dogs instead. It's worth trying that if you can't find a way to set the stitch length to 0. Tension is going to be a little lighter than it would be on zig zag.
