recommended. Some specific specialty techniques and/or
accessories do not support the use of the Sensor Q-Foot, e.g.
yarn couching and felting.
When the Sensor Q-Foot is selected the machine will lower
the foot to hold the fabric at each stitch. When the floating
foot is selected the machine will lower the foot to a pivot
height above the fabric. When using a floating foot the
presser foot height can be adjusted for improved
performance when using different weights of material and/or
embroidery threads.
Note: The embroidery foot type will automatically be reset to Sensor Q-
Foot at the start of a new project from the
JoyOS advisor ™ feature.
Make sure you attach the Sensor Q-Foot or change the setting to
floating foot (e.g. R-Foot).
Thread Cut Options
Choose between three thread cut options: no thread cuts,
automatic thread cut and a combination of automatic thread
cut and automatic jump stitch trim.
Off
When selected, no automatic thread cuts will be performed
by the machine.
Note: Select off when using optional accessories that are attached in the
two holes in the needle plate just above the bobbin cover, to prevent
damage to the automatic thread cutter knife located under the needle
plate.
Automatic Thread Cutter
When selected, thread cuts will be automatically performed
in the following situations:
• Upper thread is cut automatically and the presser foot
raises at color changes.
• Bobbin thread and needle thread are cut and the presser
foot raises when an embroidery is finished.
Automatic Jump Stitch Trim
When selected, cuts will be automatically performed and
needle thread pulled to the underside of the fabric. This
function saves you time trimming after the embroidery is
completed. The upper thread will be cut and pulled to the
underside of the fabric when starting to embroider after a
color change, at the first color block, after stepping stitches
and when the machine continues to embroider after a jump
stitch.
Thread cuts will be automatically performed in e.g. the
following situations:
• Upper thread is cut automatically and the presser foot
raises at color changes.
• Bobbin thread and upper thread are cut and the presser
foot raises when an embroidery is finished.
