USEFUL FUNCTIONS

Pivoting

If the pivot setting is selected, the machine stops with the needle lowered (in the fabric) and the presser foot is automatically raised to an appropriate height when the “Start/Stop” button is pressed. When the “Start/Stop” button is pressed again, the presser foot is automatically lowered and sewing continues. This function is useful for stopping the machine to rotate the fabric.

CAUTION

•When the pivot setting is selected, the machine starts when the “Start/Stop” button is pressed or the foot controller is pressed down even if the presser foot has been raised. Be sure to keep your hands and other items away from the needle, otherwise injuries may occur.

Memo

•When the pivot setting is selected, the height of the presser foot when sewing is stopped can be changed according to the

type of fabric being sewn. Press to display “Pivoting Height” on 2/7 of the set-

tings screen. Press or to select one of the three heights (3.2 mm, 5.0 mm or 7.5 mm). To raise the presser foot further, increase the setting. (Normally, 3.2 mm is set.)

Note

•The “Needle Position – UP/DOWN” (3/7 of the settings screen) must be set in the down

position for the pivot function to be used. When “Needle Position – UP/DOWN”

is set in the raised position, appears as light gray and cannot be used.

•The pivot function can only be used with stitches where presser foot J or N is indicated in the upper-left corner of the

screen. If any other stitch is selected, appears as light gray and is not available.

•Use the “Presser Foot Lifter” button to make sure the presser foot is lowered, and then press the “Start/Stop” button to continue sewing.

•If the pivot setting is selected, and beside “Presser Foot Height” in the settings screen are not available and the setting cannot be changed.
