If thread breaks during embroidering
The machine stops automatically when
the upper thread breaks. When this
happens do the following.
1. If the upper thread breaks.
*
Re-thread the upper thread.
If the lower thread breaks or the bobbin runs
out of the thread.
*
Cut the upper thread above the fabric in
the frame and then remove the
embroidery frame. Replace the lower
(bobbin) thread and then re-attach the
embroidery frame.
2. Touch “BACK” to move back a few stitches to
slightly before the position where the thread
broke or the bobbin ran out of the thread.
*
If it is not possible to move back to the
position where the thread broke, touch
“REVERSE SEARCH” to move back to the
beginning of that color, and then touch
“FORWARD” to move forward to just before
the position where the thread broke or the
bobbin ran out of the thread.
3. Lower the presser foot lever and press the
“START/STOP” button to restart embroidering.
*
If the machine stopped because the upper
thread ran out, the upper thread may be
tangled on the reverse side of the fabric
(thread nesting). Remove the embroidery
frame to check for this and trim off any excess
build up.
