5. USING THE SEWING MACHINE (OPERATION PANEL: BASIC OPERATION)

5-7. Using threading mode
This is used to thread the upper thread. (Refer to “4-2. Threading the upper thread” for details on using the threader.)
When the sewing machine switches to threading mode, the needle bar (
θ
feed) turns 180 degrees, and then the energization of the X, Y and
θ
feed motors is stopped. This allows the needle bar and feed base to move freely, in order to make threading of the upper thread easier.
In addition, threading mode is safe because the sewing machine will not operate when the start switch is pressed (or the treadle is
depressed).
