Embroidery Foot Type Select either the Dynamic Spring Foot 6D Free-Motion or a Sensormatic Free-Motion Foot, e.g. 6A. It is very important that the correct setting is selected for the attached embroidery foot. Embroidering with theActivStitch™ technology feature and the Dynamic Spring Foot 6D is needed for good embroidery results. Some specific specialty techniques and/or accessories do not support the use of the Dynamic Spring Foot 6D, e. g. yarn couching and felting. When the Dynamic Spring Foot 6D is selected the machine will lower the foot to hold the fabric at each stitch. When a sensormatic foot is selected the machine will lower the foot to a pivot height above the fabric. When using a sensormatic foot the presser foot height can be adjusted for improved performance when using different weights of material and/or embroidery threads. Note: The embroidery foot will be reset to Dynamic Spring Foot 6D at the start of a new project or start of a new embroidery session from the start page. Make sure you attach the correct foot or change the setting. Twin Needle Options When a twin needle size is selected the ActivStitch™ technology feature will automatically use thread tension. When embroidering with a twin needle the Straight Stitch Needle Plate needs to be removed as it cannot be used with a twin needle. Note: It is very important to activate the twin needle setting when embroidering with a twin needle to prevent damage to the machine.
