Select this function when using a straight stitch
presser foot to lock the needle in center position for all
stitches. Stitch width safety will prevent damage to the
needle and/or presser foot.
When turning on the machine with this setting
activated and for every stitch selection that is not a
straight stitch, a pop-up informs you that it is set to
straight stitch. Deselect stitch width safety to go back
to normal sewing.
Note: Twin needle and stitch width safety cannot be used at
the same time.
Presser foot pressure
In some cases, you might need to adjust the presser
foot pressure. Specialty techniques or thick fabric may
require an adjustment. The higher the number the
more pressure on the fabric.
