Proper use Proper use With the puller the workpiece is fed continously, which makes it possible to sew to a great extent without shifting and puckering. The puller’s linear motor enables an individual clearance space between the needle plate and the puller roller. All adjustments, such as e.g.
Controls Controls Puller functions Engaging/disengaging the puller ● Raise the puller drive unit 1 until it locks into place and swing puller arm 2 back as far as possible. To engage the puller, follow the instructions in the reverse order. Switching the puller on/off ●...
Controls Control panel Speed 4000 2.0mm The control panel consists of display 1 and the function keys described below. Display 1 consists of a two-row, alpha-numerical display with 16 symbols per row. The texts 3 show the respective status of the function keys and the operating modes of the machine. During the power-on phase the control panel automatically switches on all LCD segments and the horn.

Sewing Sewing In the sewing mode all relevant adjustments for the sewing operation are shown on the display and can be altered directly. Functions can be switched on and off by pressing the key. In this mode a difference is made between manual sewing and programmed sewing. To change from manual to programmed sewing, press the PM key.
Sewing Programmed sewing In the programmed sewing mode 99 programs, each with 9 seam sections and 999 stitches, can be programmed. The fixed programs are used for the quick and easy production of seams with different numbers of stitches. The pedal setting „0“ is used to switch to the next seam section. After the machine has been switched on and the programmed sewing mode has been selected with the PM key, the display appears for selecting the program number, seam section and number of stitches.
