Why does my Montgomery Ward UHT J1267 sewing machine zig zag even when on the straight stitch setting?

I have a Montgomery Ward Model UHT J1267 sewing machine. When I have it on the straight stitch setting, it zig zags instead of straight stitching. The machine doesn't even have a zig zag setting! Can you help me?

Adjust the tension

Testimonial: "It wasn't the tension, but in investigating that possibility, I discovered that I need the setting for straight stitch to be zero (0). Evidently, there is the option for a zig zag stitch by adjusting the width of the stitch."

Trouble sewing lycra fabric using a zig zag stitch
You have the machine set for blind hem stitching. Change the stitch selector to stretch stitch, which is a single, in line stitching zig zag stitch.
