EMBROIDERING TUTORIAL ——————————————————————————————————————————————

11. Sewing the Embroidery

Now, the embroidery machine is ready to begin sewing.

When the machine starts sewing, the presser foot is automatically lowered, the necessary thread trimming operations at the end of stitching are performed, the threads are changed as necessary while the embroidery is sewn, and the machine stops when the end of the stitching is reached.

CAUTION

For safety reasons, the embroidery machine must not be left unattended while it is sewing.

While the machine is in operation, pay special attention to the needle location. In addition, keep your hands away from all moving parts such as the needle, needle bar case, thread take- up lever and carriage, otherwise injuries may result.

Locking mechanism

For safety reasons, this embroidery machine is equipped with a locking function.

Normally, the embroidery machine is locked (it cannot start sewing). Unless the machine is unlocked, it cannot start sewing. If the embroidery machine is not started within 10 seconds after unlocking it, it automatically returns to being locked.

The start/stop button shows whether or not the embroidery machine is locked. If the start/stop button lights up in red, the machine is locked. If the start/stop button flashes in green, the machine is unlocked.
