P r e p a r a t i o n s

Accessory tray

Open the accessory tray by placing your left index finger on the ridged area on the left of the lid and open the lid up and towards you.

Free arm

In order to sew using the free arm, swing the detachable accessory tray to the left and lift it up out of the hole. When replacing the accessory tray, make sure it is flush with the free arm of the sewing machine.

Note: Some fabrics have a lot of excess dye which can cause discoloration on other fabric but also on your sewing machine. This discoloring may be very difficult or impossible to remove.

Fleece and denim fabric (especially in red and blue) often contain a lot of excess dye.

If you suspect that your fabric/ready-to-wear garment contains a lot of excess dye, always pre-wash it before sewing/embroidering to avoid the discoloring.
