Operation buttons

The operation buttons help you to easily perform various basic machine operations.

aStart/stop button

Press the start/stop button to start or stop embroidering. The machine embroiders at a slow speed while the button is pressed. When embroidering is stopped, the needle is lowered in the fabric.

The button changes color according to the machine’s operation mode.

Green:	The machine is ready to embroider or
	is embroidering.
Red:	The machine can not embroider.
Orange:	The machine is winding the bobbin
	thread, or the bobbin winder shaft is
	moved to the right side.

bNeedle position button

Press the needle position button to raise or lower the needle. Pressing the button twice sews one stitch.

cThread cutter button

Press the thread cutter button after embroidering is stopped to cut both the upper and the bobbin threads.

CAUTION

●Do not press the thread cutter button after the threads have already been cut, otherwise the needle may break, the threads may become tangled or damage to the machine may occur.

Note

zDo not press the thread cutter button if there is no fabric under the presser foot or while the machine is embroidering, otherwise damage to the machine may occur.

zWhen cutting thread thicker than #30, nylon thread or other special threads, use the thread cutter on the side of the machine.
