When sewing with short stitch length, the throat plate insert should be
shifted against the operator to avoid stitch skipping at the beginning of
sewing.

–
Depending on the thread thickness, set the stitch length from 1.5 to
2.5 mm
–
At seam beginning check if skipped stitch occurs.
In such a case, shift the throat plate insert (1) in the arow direction,
until the rear edge of the needle hole (2) will be 0.2 up to 0.3 mm
from the needle. Fasten the insert.
–
Limit the stitch length to 2.5 mm. The explanation on how to limit
the stitch length is described in chapter 2.1.
Caution: Risk of injury!
If the position of the throat plate insert is changed without limiting the
stitch length to 2.5 mm, the needle may then strike against the throat
plate insert if the stitch length is increased. This will damage the
machine and may even injure the operator.
