The sewing machine needle that should be used

depends on the fabric and thread thickness.

Note

● Never use a thread of weight 20 or lower. It may

cause malfunctions.

Memo

● The smaller the thread number, the thicker the

thread; and the larger the needle number, the

thicker the needle.

■ Ball point needle

Use the ball point needle when sewing on stretch

fabrics or fabrics where skipped stitches easily

occur.

Use the ball point needle for best results when

sewing patterns using monogramming foot “N”.

■ Transparent nylon thread

Use a 90/14 to 100/16 needle, regardless of the

fabric or thread.

Sewing with a bent needle is extremely dangerous

since the needle may break while the machine is being

operated.

Before using the needle, place the flat side of the

needle on a flat surface and check that the distance

between the needle and the flat surface is even.

CAUTION

● Only use home sewing machine needles. Use of

any other needle may bend the needle or

damage the machine.

● Never use bent needles. Bent needles can easily

break, possibly resulting in injury.

stitches that are secured with reverse stitching,

pressing (reverse/reinforcement stitch button)

sews reinforcement stitches, 3 to 5 stitches on top of

each other.

Memo

● Whether reverse stitches or reinforcement stitches

are sewn depends on the stitch that is selected. For

details, refer to “STITCH SETTINGS” (page 50).

The thread tension will affect the quality of your stitches. You

may need to adjust it when you change fabric or thread.

Memo

● We recommend that you do a test sample on scrap

of a fabric before you start to sew.

■ Correct tension

Correct tension is important as too much or too little tension

will weaken your seams or cause puckers on your fabric.

■ Upper tension is too tight

Loops will appear on the surface of the fabric.

Note

●

If the bobbin thread was incorrectly threaded, the upper

thread may be too tight. In this case, refer to “Lower

threading” (page 13) and rethread the bobbin thread.

Solution

Reduce the tension by turning the upper

tension-control dial to a lower number.

Memo

●

When you finish sewing, remove the bobbin cover and then

make sure that the thread is shown as below. If the thread is

■ Upper tension is too loose

Loops appear on the wrong side of the fabric.

Note

●

If the upper thread was incorrectly threaded, the upper

thread may be too loose. In this case, refer to “Upper

threading” (page 15) and rethread the upper thread.

Solution

Increase the tension by turning the upper

tension-control dial to a higher number.

Various ways to achieve better results for your sewing projects are

described below. Refer to these tips when sewing your project.

A trial piece of fabric should be sewn. Use a piece of fabric

and thread that are the same as those used for your project,

and check the thread tension and stitch length and width.

When the stitching reaches a corner, stop the sewing machine.

Leave the needle lowered (in the fabric). If the needle

was raised, lower the needle either by turning the

handwheel toward you (counterclockwise) or by

pressing (needle position button) once (for

models equipped with the needle position button).

Raise the presser foot lever, and then turn the fabric.

Turn the fabric using the needle as a pivot.

Lower the presser foot lever and continue sewing.

Stop sewing, and then slightly change the sewing

direction to sew around the curve.

When sewing along a curve while using a zigzag stitch,

select a shorter stitch length in order to obtain a finer stitch.

■ If the fabric does not fit under the presser foot

If the fabric does not fit easily under the presser foot, raise the presser

foot lever even higher to bring the presser foot to its highest position.

■ If thick seams are being sewn and the fabric does

not feed at the beginning of stitching

The fabric may not feed when thick seams are being

sewn and the presser foot is not level, as shown

below. In this case, use the presser foot locking pin.

Raise the presser foot lever.

Align the beginning of stitching, and then position the fabric.

While holding zigzag foot “J” level, hold the

presser foot locking pin (black button on the left

side) pressed in, and lower the presser foot lever.

SEWING BASICS

Release the presser foot locking pin (black button).

 The presser foot remains level, allowing the

fabric to be fed.

• After the seam is sewn, the presser foot will

return to its original angle.

Note

● Before start sewing, baste together the fabric and the

hook-and-loop fastener.

Make sure that the needle passes through the hook-and-loop

fastener by turning the handwheel and lower the needle into

the hook-and-loop fastener before sewing. And then, sew the

edge of the hook-and-loop fastener at a slow speed.

If the needle does not pass through the hook-and-loop

fastener, replace the needle with the needle for thick

fabrics (

page 19

a Edge of the hook-and-loop fastener

When sewing thin fabrics, the stitching may become

misaligned or the fabric may not feed correctly. If this

occurs, place thin paper or stabilizer material under

the fabric and sew it together with the fabric. When

you have finished sewing, tear off any excess paper.

a Stabilizer material or paper

First, baste the pieces of fabric together, and then sew

without stretching the fabric.

a Basting

Removing the flat bed attachment makes it easier to sew cylindrical

pieces such as cuffs and pant legs, or hard-to-reach areas.

Slide the flat bed attachment to the left to release it.

a Flat bed attachment

 With the flat bed attachment removed, free-

arm sewing is possible.

• When sewing cylindrical pieces, follow the next step.

Note

● When you are finished with free-arm sewing, install

the flat bed attachment back in its original position.

Slide the part that you wish to sew onto the arm,

and then sew from the top.

CAUTION

● If fabric more than 6 mm (15/64 inch) thick is

sewn or if the fabric is pushed with too much

force, the needle may bend or break.

Sewing hook-and-loop fastener

CAUTION

● Use only the ungummed hook-and-loop fastener

which is for sewing. If the glue is attached to the

needle or the bobbin hook race, it may cause

malfunction.

Simple sewing machine maintenance operations are

described below.

In order to prevent damaging this machine, it must not

be oiled by the user.

This machine was manufactured with the necessary

amount of oil applied to ensure correct operation,

making periodic oiling unnecessary.

If problems occur, such as difficulty turning the

handwheel or an unusual noise, immediately stop

using the machine, and contact your authorized dealer

or the nearest authorized service center.

Do not store the machine in any of the locations

described below, otherwise damage to the machine may

result, for example, rust caused by condensation.

• Exposed to extremely high temperatures

• Exposed to extremely low temperatures

• Exposed to extreme temperature changes

• Exposed to high humidity or steam

• Near a flame, heater or air conditioner

• Outdoors or exposed to direct sunlight

• Exposed to extremely dusty or oily environments

Note

● In order to extend the life of this machine,

periodically turn it on and use it.

Storing this machine for an extended period of time

without using it may reduce its efficiency.

If the surface of the machine is dirty, lightly soak a

cloth in neutral detergent, squeeze it out firmly, and

then wipe the surface of the machine. After cleaning it

once with a wet cloth, wipe it again with a dry cloth.

Sewing performance will suffer if dust collects in the

a Lower side of fabric

b Lower thread visible from upper side of fabric

c Upper thread

d Upper side of fabric

e Lower thread

■ Cause

Incorrect lower threading

If the lower thread is incorrectly threaded, instead of

the appropriate tension being applied to the lower

thread, it is pulled through the fabric when the

upper thread is pulled up. For this reason, the thread

is visible from the upper side of the fabric.

■ Remedy/check details

Correctly install the lower thread.

• Refer to “Lower threading” (page 13-15).

■ Symptom

• The thread becomes tangled on the lower side

of the fabric.

• After starting sewing, a rattling noise is made

and sewing cannot continue.

• Looking under the fabric, there is tangled

thread in the bobbin case.

■ Cause

Incorrect upper threading

If the upper thread is incorrectly threaded, the upper

thread passed through the fabric cannot be firmly

pulled up and the upper thread becomes tangled in

the bobbin case, causing a rattling noise.

■ Remedy/check details

Remove the tangled thread, and then correct the

upper threading.

Remove the tangled thread. If it cannot be

removed, cut the thread with scissors.

• For details, refer to “Cleaning the race” on

page 57.

Remove the upper thread from the machine.

● If error message “F1” through “F9” appears in the LCD while the sewing machine is being used, the machine may

be malfunctioning. Contact your nearest authorized service center.

Each time a key is pressed you will hear one beep. If a non-functioning key is pressed or an incorrect operation is

performed you will hear two or four beeps (only for models equipped with the operation beep).

■ If a key is pressed (correct operation)

One beep sounds.

■ If an incorrect operation is performed or a non-functioning key is pressed

Two or four beeps sound.

■ If the machine locks up, for example, because the thread is tangled

The sewing machine beeps for four seconds and the machine automatically stops. Be sure to check for the cause

of the error, and correct it before continuing to sew.
