Park Position/ Trim Position
Remove the hoop and press the Needle Stop Up/Down button
to put the embroidery unit in Park Position for easy storage.
Press the Needle Stop Up/Down button when the hoop is
attached and the hoop moves towards you, making it easy to cut
jump sticthes or trim fabric. Cut the jump threads and press the
button again. The hoop moves back to the current stitch. Press
Start/Stop to resume the embroidery.
Note: The Hoop Options menu will open to show the actual position.
One-Color Embroidery
Press STOP to cancel the color stops if you want to sew a design
in one color only.
Note: If the Automatic Jump Stitch Trim function is activated in the SET
Menu on model 30 it will still be active between the color blocks.
Basting
Press the FIX button and the machine will add a basting stitch
around the design area. Basting enables you to secure your fabric
to a stabilizer placed beneath. It is especially useful when the
fabric to be embroidered cannot be hooped. Basting provides
support for stretchy fabric and also shows where the design will
be placed on the fabric.
Corner Check
Corner check can be used to trace the four corners of the design.
Press the OK button. Each time you press the OK button the
hoop will move to one of the corners in the following order:
upper left, upper right, lower right and lower left. On the À fth
press the hoop will move to the center position of the design and
on the sixth press back to the current stitch position. A crosshair
will indicate the current needle position on the screen.
The Corner check function also shows where the design will
be embroidered on the fabric. This makes it easier to position
designs when embroidering several designs in succession.
Step Stitch-by-Stitch
Use the Step Stitch-by-Stitch – and + buttons to step through
the design stitch by stitch. If the top or bobbin thread runs
out or is broken, step backwards a few stitches before starting
to embroider again. Current stitch number is shown on the
GraphicDisplay in the Stitch-out view.
Step Color-by-Color
Use the Step Color-by-Color – and + buttons to step to the À rst
stitch of the previous or next color. The current color block
number is shown, next to the total number of color blocks in
the design, shown in brackets, in the Stitch-out view on the
GraphicDisplay. Press the Embroidery Info button to view the
complete color block list.
