Warning!
By activating the BSR function the sewing computer sews
either continuously at a reduced motor speed (mode 1,
standard) or one single stitch (mode 2).
As long as the BSR presser foot is illuminated red, adjustments like
threading and changing the needle, for example must not be carried
out, as the needle will engage while fabric is moved unintentionally!
Without fabric feed the BSR mode is turned off after approx. 7 seconds
and the red light goes off.
Please refer to the Safety Instructions!

The BSR presser foot reacts
to the movement of the
fabric under the foot and
controls the speed of the
sewing computer up to
the maximum speed possi-
ble. The following applies:
the faster the fabric is
moved the higher the
speed of the sewing computer.
If the fabric is moved too fast an
acoustic signal (beep) is heard. The
beeper can be turned on or off on
the «BSR» screen.

BSR Function With Straight Stitch
No. 1
This function using a special presser
foot allows for free-motion quilting
(sewing) using the straight stitch and
a pre-selected stitch length (up to
5mm).
A regulated set stitch length is main-
tained within a certain speed, inde-
pendent of the movement of the
fabric.
BSR Function With Zig-zag Stitch
No. 2
The zig-zag stitch can be used for
thread painting or fabric embellish-
ment for example.
The set stitch length will NOT be
maintained when sewing with the
zig-zag stitch, but the BSR function
simplifies the application.
For an even sewing
start (one single stitch)
the foot control must be
pressed and the fabric
moved simultaneously.
This also applies for
sewing points and
straight stitching within
a round form.
If the BSR function is
deactivated and later re-
activated without the
sewing computer being
switched off in bet-
ween, the last selected
BSR mode is active.
