Memo
• When using the straight stitch needle plate,
many straight stitches become middle
needle position stitches. If a straight stitch
is selected that is not applicable for use
when the straight stitch needle plate is
attached, an error message will be
displayed to prevent the use of this stitch.
You cannot change the needle position
using the width display.
• Always secure the needle plate before
inserting the bobbin case into its original
position.
CAUTION
• Slowly rotate the handwheel toward you
(counterclockwise) before sewing and make
sure that the needle is not contacting the
straight stitch foot and straight stitch needle
plate.
Memo
• To prevent puckering on fine fabrics, use a
fine needle, size 75/11, and a short stitch
length. For heavier fabrics, use a heavier
needle, size 90/14, and longer stitches.
Memo
• When you use the basting stitch for
gathering, do not use a reinforcement stitch
at the beginning; you should lift the presser
foot, rotate the handwheel toward you
(counterclockwise), pull up the bobbin
thread and pull a length of top and bobbin
thread out from the rear of the machine.
