7-2-4. Setting the zigzag stop position

When the plain zigzag, 2-step zigzag, 3-step zigzag or scallop sewing patterns are selected, you can set whether the
needle stops when it is at the right side or the left side of the sewing pattern.
(If the right stopping has been set, the needle stop position will be the position shown by n in the illustration below.)
* When the straight stitch, blind stitch or custom-made sewing patterns have been selected, the zigzag stop position
setting is ignored.
I Sewing machine operation when sewing stops
When right stopping or left stopping is set, the sewing machine will keep running until the set position is reached, even
if the treadle is returned to the neutral position or depressed backward.
• For plain zigzag, 2-step zigzag and 3-step zigzag, the needle will stop at the stitch furthest to the right if right stopping
has been set, or at the stitch furthest to the left if left stopping has been set.
• For the scallop sewing pattern, the needle will stop at the next right-side stitch if right stopping has been set, or at the
next left-side stitch if left stopping has been set.

I Sewing start position after the treadle is depressed backward
When right stopping has been set, sewing starts from the right side. When left stopping has been set, sewing starts
from the left side.
• If the needle stops in the needle down stop position, the needle will be raised to the needle up stop position when
the treadle is depressed backward. (The workpiece can then be changed.)
The next sewing operation starts from the same position.
Note:
Do not press the half stitch key or correction key or turn the machine pulley by hand to move the needle to the
needle up stop position. Doing so will cancel the effect of the zigzag stop position function.
Furthermore, the effect of starting the next sewing from the zigzag stop position will also be canceled when
DIP switch 2-4 is set to ON.

I Setting method
Press the zigzag stop position key q to set the needle stop
position.
• The indicator illumination changes as shown in the il-
lustration at left and the zigzag stop position setting
changes each time the zigzag stop position key q is
pressed.
• If right stopping or left stopping has been set, the indi-
cator also illuminates during sewing so that you can
check the setting.

* When the needle stops in the needle up stop
position, the last stitch does not form part
of the seam.
If the treadle is depressed backward at this
time, the seam is formed at that position.
