5. USING THE SEWING MACHINE (OPERATION PANEL: BASIC OPERATION) Symptom Parameter number 02 (Length of the hole) does not become larger. Cause If the sewing area is 32.0 mm and parameter number 05 (Cutter Y space) is set to 1.0 mm, parameter number 18 (Front tack length) is set to 1.0 mm and parameter number 25 (Rear tack length) is set to 1.0 mm, the length of the hole will be 32.0 - 1.0 - 1.0 - 1.0 1.0 = 28.0 mm. (The default setting is 27.8 mm to match the positions of the needle and cutter.) Parameter number 05 See illustration. (Cutter Y space) does not become larger. Parameter number 18 (Front tack length) and parameter number 25 (Rear tack length) do not become larger. See illustration. 4804M 5-5.

Setting range 2: Rectangle
This is effective for preventing the material from getting stuck in the needle hole when sewing the rear tack, which can
happen when using lightweight materials.
(An offset is used so that the stitches do not overlap when sewing the reverse zigzagging for the rear tack.)
Reducing the number of front tack stitches is effective in preventing the material getting stuck at the front tack.
Using a needle plate with a small needle hole (1.2 mm) as well can also help in preventing the material from getting stuck.
Setting range 3: Saw-shape
This is effective for preventing dimples in the rear tack, without the need for underlay sewing.
