15 Upper thread is raised
above the material surface
after thread trimming.
・
Upper thread protrudes from the material surface after thread
trimming.
1. Increase the pitch during thread trimming.
2. Set the feed direction for sewing end processing to
↑

16 When T/T short is on,
skipped stitches occur
where they should be
sewn at the sewing end.
・
Use the T/T short parameters to delete the the stitch before the final
stitch.
・
Use the T/T short parameters to reduce the stitch pitch of the final
stitch and the one before it.
・
Use the T/T short parameters to set the feed direction for sewing end
processing to
↑
.
If sewing backtack stitches
・
Reduce the number of stitches (D) for backtack sewing by 1 stitch

17 When T/T short is on,
condense stitches (the
final stitch and the one
before it) cannot be sewn
neatly before thread
trimming.
・
Use the T/T short parameters to increase the stitch pitch.
・
Use the T/T short parameters to reduce the sewing speed.

18 Thread trailing length on
underside of material is
too long.
・
Turn on the T/T short function.
If you would like the trailing length to be even sorter after turning on the
T/T short function.
・
Is the meshing position of the thread trimming knives directly below
the needle hole?
・
Use the T/T short parameters to reduce the stitch pitch of the
condense stitches (the final stitch and the one before it) before
thread trimming.
・
Use the T/T short parameters to reduce the pitch during thread
trimming.

To prevent fraying at the
sewing end
・

Incorrect thread trimming
(Upper and lower threads
are both not being
trimmed)
・
Is the fixed knife or movable knife damaged or worn?
Replace the fixed knife or the movable knife.
・
Is there not enough of a meshing amount between the upper knife
and the lower knife?
Adjust the tip of the upper knife to the lower knife index position
so that the knives mesh.
