Electronic bobbin thread monitor
The red signal lamp of bobbin thread
monitor 61 starts to flash when the
bobbin thread is running out. The lamp
goes out when a full bobbin is inserted
and sewing continues.
Important: Free arm cover 52 must be
kept closed.
The Pfaff 1029 has a special bobbin
(important when re-ordering).
Needle positioner
At the end of each sewing operation
the needle is in its 'up' position. By
pressing button 62 you can bring the
needle to its lowest position for sewing
corners and turning the fabric. If you
press the button again the needle will
return to its highest position.
It is possible to continue sewing with
the needle in its "down" position. If you
press button 62 during sewing the
needle remains down in the fabric
when the machine stops.
Basting
Press basting stitch button 50. The
green indicator lamp A lights up. Drop
the machine feed (page 15) and screw
on the darning foot (page 20). Place
the fabric under the sewing foot. Each
time you press and release the foot
pedal the machine sews one stitch.
Move the fabric under the sewing foot
until the length of stitch required is
obtained, then holding the fabric in this
position, press down the foot pedal and
release it again. Repeat this operation
for each basting stitch.
When you have finished basting move
your foot from the pedal and press
button 50 again. The green indicator
lamp A goes out. Push the drop-feed
control to the left again. Close free arm
cover 52.
Electronic top speed selector
The infinitely variable top speed of the
sewing machine can be selected by
moving regulator 49.
When the regulating slide is moved
towards minus
(—)
the machine sews
slower. When it is moved towards plus
(+) the machine sews faster.
The piercing power of the needle
remains the same no matter what the
speed is.
