Fabric recommendations
Be sure to observe the following recommendations concerning the fabric.
Display recommendations
Be sure to observe the following recommendations concerning the use of the operation panel display.
Note
• It is recommended that rayon or polyester embroidery thread be used (120 den x 2 / 135 dtex x 2 / 40
weight (in Americas and Europe) / #50 (in Japan)).
Note
• Your machine can embroider fabric that is up to 2 mm (5/64 inch) thick. If thicker fabric is sewn, the
needle may bend or break.
• When embroidering overlapping stitches, it is difficult for the needle to penetrate the fabric, possibly
resulting in the needle bending or breaking.
• Attach stabilizers to thin or stretch fabrics. (Refer to “Attaching Iron-On Stabilizer (Backing) to Fabric”
on page 92 for information.)
• When embroidering large pieces of fabric, make sure that the fabric is not caught in the carriage.
Note
• Only touch the display with your finger or included touch pen. Do not use a mechanical pencil,
screwdriver or any other hard or sharp object. In addition, do not apply extreme pressure to the
display screen, otherwise damage to the display screen may result.
