[Response to problems occurring at the beginning of sewing]
• In the case needle thread breakage occurs when using a thin thread or fragile thread
• In the case needle thread is not tucked on the wrong side of material
• In the case needle thread breakage occurs when starting sewing from the material end (such as sewing
the material with needle thread tucked on the undersurface of material)
If any of the aforementioned problems occurs, the assist function which works to reduce the presser foot
pressure at the beginning of sewing can be set by using the auto-lifter device (AK85B)
* The AK85B can be optionally installed. (Part number: 40188851)
* In the case the AK85B is not used, the presser foot pressure should be reduced to allow the needle thread
to be released smoothly. (The recommended presser foot pressure is 30 N (3 kg) or less.)
Adjust the presser foot pressure and the sewing speed appropriately to prevent insufficient feed efficien-
cy due to jumping or other faults of the presser foot. Confirm the adjustment result by actually sewing the
material.
