Setting the cutting width
Setting the cutting width
The cutting width can be adjusted to the
material to be sewn and the stitch type.
1 Switch off the machine at the main switch.
2 Open the side cover and the front flap.
3 Deactivate the upper knife (see chapter
“Deactivating the upper knife”).
4 Turn the cutting width dial to the desired
width. The seam must lie lightly on the
edge of the fabric.
(A) Ideal cutting width
The loops just lie on the edge of the
fabric.
(B) The cutting width is too small
The loops protrude too far over the edge
of the fabric.
Turn the cutting width dial clockwise to
move the lower knife to the right.
(C) The cutting width is too large
The loops are too close to the edge of the
fabric.
Turn the cutting width dial anti-clockwise
to move the lower knife to the left.
5 Reactive the upper knife (upper position).
6 Finally, close the side cover and the front
flap again.
Seam guides
There are seam guides on the top of the front
flap. They serve as guiding aid for cutting the
edge of the fabric with an even spacing.
The “L” marking refers to the left needle and
“R” to the right needle.
• The spacing of the markings to the right
needle is 10, 16 and 23 mm.
