SeWING
CaUtION
While the machine is in operation, pay special
attention to the needle location. In addition, keep
your hands away from all moving parts such as
the needle and handwheel, otherwise injuries may
occur.
Sewing flat fabric
(for example, trial sewing)
1. Raise the presser foot, and then place the
fabric at the needle drop position.
2. Lower the presser foot, turn the handwheel
toward you a few times by hand, and then
lightly step on the foot controller to start sewing.
NOTE:
When starting to sew after threading or
changing thread colors, the thread will be on
top of the presser foot. In order to sew without
incident, place fabric under the presser foot.
Turn hand wheel toward you a few times by
hand. Thread will be anchored into the fabric.
Cut the threads shown to continue to sew.
NOTE:
When sewing stretch fabrics, adjust the
differential feed and check that the desired
finish is achieved.
removing the fabric
from the machine
(Cover stitch model)
1. By hand, turn the handwheel toward you until
the needle is at its highest position.
2. Raise the presser foot.
3. Slowly pull the fabric in the direction of the
arrow.
NOTE:
Be sure to pull the fabric to the back.
4. Cut the needle threads, which come out from
the surface of the fabric.
