Note
If automatic thread cutting and automatic reverse/reinforcement
stitching are turned on before you start sewing, pressing just the
start/stop button automatically sews reinforcement stitches
before sewing. In addition, pressing the reverse/reinforcement
stitch button at the end of the stitching automatically sews
reinforcement stitches, trims the threads and stops the
machine.

CAUTION
After the stitch width is adjusted, turn the balance wheel
toward you by hand and check that the needle does not
touch the presser foot. If the needle hits the presser foot
and breaks, injuries may occur.
