• The speed set using the sewing speed
controller is the foot controller’s maximum
sewing speed.

Once you are ready to start sewing, slowly
press down on the foot controller.
Pressing down on the foot controller increases
the sewing speed; releasing the pressure on the
foot controller decreases the sewing speed.
• Slowly press down on the foot controller.
Pressing it down hard starts sewing too
quickly.
X The machine starts sewing.

When the end of the stitching is reached,
completely release the foot controller.
X The machine stops sewing with the needle
lowered (in the fabric).

When you are finished sewing, raise the
needle, and then cut the threads.
• For details, refer to “ Cutting the thread”
(page 49).
Memo
● When the foot controller is plugged in, the
start/stop button cannot be used to start or
stop sewing.
● When sewing is stopped, the needle
remains lowered (in the fabric). The
machine can be set so that the needle will
stay up when sewing is stopped. For details
on setting the machine so that the needle
stays up when sewing is stopped, refer to
“ Changing the needle stop position”
(page 107).

accumulate in the foot controller,
otherwise a fire or an electric shock may
