Cleaning the skip stitch detection
Even the smallest remnants of fabric in front of the sensor lenses of the
skip stitch detection will cause the skip stitch detection to stop working
properly. To ensure fault-free operation, you must clean the sensor of the
skip stitch detection using compressed air at least once a day ( p. 212).
