Memo
• When using the straight stitch needle plate,
all straight stitches become middle needle
position stitches. You cannot change the
needle position using the width display.
• Always secure the needle plate before
inserting the bobbin case into its original
position.
CAUTION
• Selecting other stitches will cause an error
message to be displayed.
• Be sure to turn the handwheel slowly in your
direction before sewing and make sure that the
needle is not contacting the straight stitch foot
and straight stitch needle plate.
Memo
To prevent puckering on fine fabrics, use a
fine needle, size 75/11, and a short stitch
length. For heavier fabrics, use a heavier nee-
dle, size 90/14, and longer stitches.
