7. Explanation of operations

(1)Stitching operations
[1] Reconfirm the stitching data before starting. Take special care to the set stitching speed.
[2] The stitching speed is determined according to the set speed and stitch length. The maximum stitching speed is
determined by the speed setting, and the stitch length limits the stitching speed.
[Caution] Do not change the sewing machine stitching speed during operation except in emergencies.
(Changing the speed can cause fault such as thread catching faults.)
[3] Set the material to be stitched, and turn the work holder switch ON. Next, when the start switch is turned ON, the
sewing machine will start rotating and stitching. Once started, stitching will continue even the operator's foot is
released from the start switch. When the stitching is completed, and the work holder returns to the home position,
the sewing machine will stop and the work holder will automatically rise.
Take down the work holder
