Introduction
Cut Function
Touch the cut function button and your machine cuts
the upper and bobbin threads and raises the presser foot
and needle.
To cut threads at the end of a stitch or stitch sequence,
touch the cut function button while sewing. The
indicator light will intensify, alerting you that a cut is
requested. When the stitch or stitch sequence is
completed, your machine cuts the upper and bobbin
threads and raises the presser foot and needle.
Note: If automatic presser foot lift has been deselected in
temporary session settings the presser foot will not be raised
when using the cut function.
Some optional accessories are attached in the two
small circular holes in the needle plate just above the
bobbin cover. Do not use the cut function when an
accessory is attached in these holes as that may
interfere with the automatic thread cutter located
under the needle plate.
Immediate Tie-Off
Press immediate tie-off while sewing and your machine
sews a few tie-off stitches and stops automatically. By
touching the tie-off button once more while the action
indicator is lit, the function can be turned off.
Stitch Re-Start
When you stop sewing in the middle of a stitch, touch
stitch re-start to begin sewing at the beginning of the
stitch. The stitch or stitch sequence will remember any
special settings you made.
Needle Stop Up/Down
Touch needle stop up/down to set the position of the
needle when you stop sewing. The needle will move up
or down when you touch the button. The indicator light
intensifies when needle stop down is set.
Tip: You can also tap the foot control to raise or lower the
needle once you stop sewing. Tapping the foot control does not
change the set stop position.
Start/Stop
Touch the start/stop button to start and stop the
machine sewing without using the foot control. Touch
start/stop to begin and touch again to stop.
Reverse
When reverse is active, the reverse indicator intensifies.
For permanent reverse, touch the reverse button once
before starting to sew. The reverse indicator will
intensify and the machine sews in reverse until you
touch the button again to cancel. If you press the reverse
button while sewing, the machine will sew in reverse for
as long as you keep the button pressed.
Reverse is also used when sewing manual buttonholes,
darning stitches and tapering stitches to step between
the parts of the stitch.
