Setting up the machine
Positioning the needles up/down
The needles always remain in the topmost position when the sewing process is stopped. Turning the
handwheel changes the needle position and the topmost position is not ensured. The «Back-kick» is
deactivated when the machine covers are open.
The top needle position is required for the following actions:
• to change the needle
• to thread the needle
• to swing out the presser foot
• to start the air threader process
> «Back-kick» on the foot control.
Adjusting the needle stop up/down
The needle stop position can be preset in the stitch view and defines the stop position of the needle at the
end of the sewing. (see page 36)
> Tap needle stop up/down.
