Sewing with free motion mode
In free motion mode, the presser foot is raised to the necessary
height for free motion sewing. When starting to sew, the
internal sensor detects the thickness of the fabric, and the
quilting foot is raised to the height specified in the machine
settings screen.
In this mode, lower the feed dogs (using the feed dog position
switch) so that the fabric can be moved freely in any direction.

speed of the fabric to match the sewing speed.
If the fabric is moved faster than the sewing
speed, the needle may break or other damage
may result.
