3. Use two-hand control.
4. Move along the contour stitch by stitch using the Forwards and Back

ATTENTION
Damage to the machine by exceeding the sewing field size
If you have entered contour points that lie outside the sewing field then
the movement of the clamps during sewing can cause damage to the
machine or the sewing material.
After creating or changing a program, perform a contour test. This way,
you can check whether the entire contour lies within the range of the
possible sewing field.
