(NOTE 1) Once the knee lifter switch is used to lower the presser foot, the foot pedal can not be used to raise the
presser foot while the machine is stopped; at this time, only the knee lifter is able to raise and lower the
presser foot.

switch 2 to on.
(NOTE 3) Limited sewing speeds depend on settings for DIP switches 6 and 7 as shown in the following table. When
the maximum sewing speed is specified as 5,000 rpm on the operation panel, it is actually limited to 4,700
