How to use

Thread the machine following the threading path indicated in the user manual, set the desired stitch pattern with the rotary selector and adjust stitch length as needed. Use the free arm by removing or positioning the accessory table to access cuffs or sleeves. Select one of the 13 needle positions when aligning seams or applying topstitching. Start sewing at a low speed to check tension and stitch quality, then increase up to the machine’s maximum of 750 SPM as appropriate for the fabric and task.

Recommendations

For best results, use appropriate needle types and sizes for the fabric being sewn and match thread weight accordingly. Test settings on a fabric scrap before working on the main piece, and maintain the machine by cleaning lint from the bobbin area and oiling as specified in the manual. Avoid prolonged continuous operation at maximum speed to reduce wear on mechanical components.
