Sewing preparation
> Position the appropriate spool disc on the spool pin so that there is no space between the spool disc and
the thread spool.
Using a spool net
The spool net holds the thread on the thread spool and prevents the thread from knotting and breaking.
> If available, slide the spool net over the thread spool.
2.5 Free arm
The BERNINA 540 provides a solidly designed free arm which offers a lot of space for large project on the
right of the needle.
2.6 Feed dog
Adjusting the feed dog
NOTICE
Inappropriate handling of the fabric
Damage of the needle and the stitch plate.
> Let the sewing project be fed evenly.
With each stitch, the feed dog moves forward by one step. The length of this step is determined by the stitch
length selected.
With a short stitch length, the steps are very short. For example when sewing buttonholes and satin stitches.
The fabric is fed slowly under the presser foot, even when sewing at maximal speed.
