beginning can be increased by beginning the seam with a short stitch.

the "Soft-Start" parameter F-134 is set to "1".
At the end of a seam the function "Short Thread trimming" (FA-STL)
can be switched on. This function guarantees a safe thread trimming
with stitch lengths above 6 mm.
The function "Short Thread trimming" is switched on by setting the
Parameter F-136 to "2" with the Efka control unit.
This function is switched on by setting the parameter F-136 to "3" while
