7-2-3. Setting the zigzag base line position

The zigzag base line is the "center" of the zigzag stitch, or in other words, it is like a center line drawn through the
sewing pattern.
By moving the zigzag base line position, you can move the sewing pattern to the left and right within the maximum
range for the pattern width.

center.
G Relationship between zigzag base line position and zigzag width (when the maximum zigzag width is 8 mm)
By way of example, consider a sewing pattern (Figure A) with a zigzag base line position set to
width set to AA AA. If the zigzag base line position is set to
edge (Figure B). The sewing pattern cannot move any further to the left even if a larger setting is made. (Even if the
zigzag base line position is set to

1. Press the zigzag base line position key q.
The indicator w will illuminate, and the zigzag base
line position currently set will flash on the LED display

(For example, AA AA
tion is 2.0 mm to the left, and
pattern position is 2.0 mm to the right.)
2. Press the and
zigzag base line position.
• If changing the setting from
numerals, and then set "L" or "r".
• Use the selection keys to set [L] or [r] in the
second column from the left in the LED display e.
Note:
If the needle bar is at the needle up stop position, the
needle bar will move to the sewing start position when
the zigzag base line position is changed.
If the needle bar is not at the needle up stop position,
the needle bar will move to the sewing start position
after it next moves to the needle up stop position.
