Description
This switch, mounted on the reverse feed switch, enables handy control of various functions.
It is especially effective when operating the machine while standing.
When the amount of remaining bobbin thread reaches the setting, the buzzer will sound to warn
the operator not to press, on the front part of the foot pedal. With this function, the operator
doesn't have to look away from the sewing work to check the bobbin thread.
(Only supported by the minute-quantity lubricating type machine)
When the sensor detects a material edge, it immediately stops the sewing machine and actuates
the thread trimmer. This enhances productivity by allowing the operator to conduct sewing
work without running to look out for missing stitches.
This device can be installed on the back of the face plate. It is very convenient for frequent use.
