Memo
• For best results, select a longer stitch length and a
wider stitch width. Depending on the selected stitch,
it may not be possible to change the stitch length
and stitch width settings. For details on adjusting the
stitch length and stitch width, refer to the machine’s
Operation Manual.
• Depending on the fabric, bunched stitches may
result. We recommend selecting a simple stitch and
sewing trial stitches to check the sewing results.
Examples of simple stitches: , ,
Memo
We recommend an upper thread tension that is higher
than the standard setting.
CAUTION
• Before sewing, make sure the automatic thread
cutting has been turned off. If sewing is started with
automatic thread cutting turned on, the thread may
become tangled or the machine may be damaged.
Note
• Before sewing, check that there is enough thread in
the bobbin.
Note
• Do not sew reinforcement/reverse stitches at the
end of the stitching, otherwise the threads may
become tangled or the needle may break. In
addition, it will be difficult to pull the bobbin thread
up to the wrong side of the fabric.
