5. OPERATION Setting the knife length Set parameter number 02 to the knife length that matches the cutter being used. (Refer to "5-4-2. Checking the length of knife".) Be sure to change the knife length setting if the knife is replaced with a knife of a different length. The stitch length will be automatically determined by the value for the length of the knife which has been set. Therefore, if the knife length is not set correctly, problems may occur, such as the bar tacking stitches being cut by the knife. Buttonhole sewing size A. Length of knife (Parameter No.02) B.

. Setting the knife length
Set parameter number 02 to the knife length that matches the cutter being used. (Refer to "5-4-2. Checking the length
of knife".)
Be sure to change the knife length setting if the knife is replaced with a knife of a different length.
The stitch length will be automatically determined by the value for the length of the knife which has been set. Therefore,
if the knife length is not set correctly, problems may occur, such as the bar tacking stitches being cut by the knife.

. Main restrictions when setting parameters
When the sewing area is set to 4.0 x 32.0 (default setting)
Symptom
Cause
Remedy
Parameter number 05
(Zigzag width) does not
become larger.
If the sewing area is 4.0 mm and parameter
number 06 (Knife X space) is set to 0.4 mm, the
zigzag width that can be entered will be limited
to (4.0 - 0.4)
÷
2 = 1.8 mm.
Parameter number 06
(Knife X space) does
not become larger.
If the sewing area is 4.0 mm and parameter
number 05 (Zigzag width) is set to 1.8 mm, the
knife X space that can be entered will be limited
to 4.0 - (1.8 + 1.8) = 0.4 mm.
A
Parameter number 08
(Knife
X
position
alignment)
does
not
become
larger
or
smaller.
The buttonhole is aligned to the left or right of
the sewing area, so only values that are within
the available space inside the sewing area can
be entered.
In the example shown in the illustration, the
alignment can only be adjusted by up to 0.2 mm
to the plus side and the minus side.
Parameter number 10
(Zigzag width ratio [at
left]) does not become
larger or smaller.
See illustration.
Parameter number 26
(Front tack sideways
correction)
and
parameter number 36
(Rear
tack
sideways
correction)
do
not
become
larger
or
smaller.
See illustration.
