Edge cutter switched off when the thread is cut 256 = 1

Number of stitches for automatic switch-on 258 = 1

(for setting the parameters see Set-up instructions, s ection 7.1.4, 7.2.6, 7.3.7)

Selecting cutting speed

The control for the cutting speed of the edge cutter is switched on with the

three-position switch 3.

Position 0 = edge cutter off. LED X is off.

Position I = low cutting speed for small to medium stitch lengths.

Position II = high c utting speed fo r medium to large stitch lengths.

When the switch 3 is in positions I and II, LED X flashes.

Release of the edge cutter by the fullness control

The edge cutter must always also be released by the fullness c ontrol:

Briefly press the “F” key: the green LED above the key lights up, the edge cutter is

released.

NB: for smooth sewing and for any seam sequence in which the edge cutter is required

to work, it must be released by the fullness control.

When the seam is started, the edge cutter automatically switches on after the first s titch.

LED X is permanently on when the edge cutter is running.
