Note
Settings for some stitches cannot be changed (refer to the “STITCH SETTING CHART” on page S-67).
If you turn off the machine or select another stitch without saving stitch setting changes (“Saving Your
Stitch Settings” on page S-22), the stitch settings will return to their default settings.
Memo

stitch width using the speed controller, see
page S-39.
Memo
Press after pressing to return to the
original setting.
Note
After adjusting the stitch width, slowly
rotate the handwheel toward you
(counterclockwise) and check that the
needle does not touch the presser foot. If
the needle hits the presser foot, the needle
may bend or break.
