STARTING TO SEW
The machine will be set to sew straight stitch when power switch is turned on.
CAUTION: To prevent accidents. While sewing, special care is required around the needle.
Machine automatically feeds the fabric, do not pull or push the fabric.
A. START AND END OF SEAM
1.Check the presser foot (General Purpose Presser Foot). Refer to page 7 for changing the presser foot.
2.Place the fabric under the presser foot and lower the presser foot.
3.Hold back both threads and press the start/stop button or press the foot controller pedal.
Keep holding threads after sewing a few stitches.
Lightly guide the fabric while sewing.
You can regulate the sewing speed by sliding the speed control button.
Also, you can reduce the sewing speed by pressing the slow button.
4.When you reach end of seam, press the start/ stop button to stop sewing or release the foot controller pedal.
5.Press the thread cutter button.

Upper Thread Sensor
If upper thread is broken or missing, machine will stop automatically.
Rethread the upper thread and resume sewing.
CAUTION

2.Do not use the thread cutter button when cutting thread thicker than #30, nylon thread or
