3.1Threading needle thread
CAUTION
Risk of injury due to sharp and moving parts!
Punctures and crushing are possible.
Only thread the needle thread with the machine
switched off.
To thread the needle thread:
1. Plug the thread reels onto the thread reel holders and feed
the needle and hook threads through the unwinding bracket.
The unwinding bracket must stand horizontally above the
thread reels.
2. Thread the needle thread as shown in the following figure.
Fig. 1: Threading needle thread
(1) -
Silicone lubricator (optional)
3. Pull the needle thread approx. 4 cm through the needle after
threading. This ensures reliable sewing-on.
4. When using silicone oil, also thread the needle thread through
With an open primary tensioner (2) a small amount of residual
tension of the needle thread is required. The residual tension is
generated by the preliminary tensioner (1).
The preliminary tension also affects the length of the cut needle
thread end (starting thread for the next seam).
To set the preliminary needle thread tension:
1. Turn the preliminary tensioner (1) clockwise (– direction) for
a shorter starting thread.
2. Turn the preliminary tensioner (1) counterclockwise
(+ direction) for a longer starting thread.
Primary tension of the needle thread
To set the primary needle thread tension:
1. Set the primary tension of the needle thread (2) to be as low
as possible.
The thread interlacing should be exactly in the middle of the
material being sewn. With thin sewn material, excessive
thread tension can lead to undesired ruffing and thread breakages.

CAUTION
Risk of injury due to sharp parts!
Cutting is possible.
Only thread the needle thread with the machine
switched off.
Fig. 3: Setting the thread regulator
(1) - Thread regulator
(2) - Thread tensioning spring
The thread regulator (1) regulates the amount of needle thread
required for forming the stitch. An optimum sewing result is only
possible when the thread regulator is exactly adjusted.

With the correct setting the needle thread loop must slide over the
thickest part of the hook at low tension.
To set the needle thread regulator:
1. Loosen the screw (3).
2. Adjust the position of the thread regulator (1).
Thread regulator to the left = larger amount of needle thread
Thread regulator to the right = smaller amount of needle thread
3. Tighten the screw (3).
Adjustment note:
When the maximum thread quantity is required then the thread
tension spring (2) must be pulled approx. 0.5 mm down from its
upper end position. This occurs when the needle thread loop
passes the maximum hook diameter.

4. Press the bobbin lever (4) into the bobbin.
5. Start sewing.
The bobbin winder stops automatically when the configured
bobbin filling length has been reached (see Service
manual).
6. Tear off the thread at the thread clamp (1) after winding.
Note
If the thread must be wound without sewing then the thread winding
mode can be set in the controller.
See chapter bobbin winding ( S. 35).

NOTICE
Property damage may occur!
Damage to the clamp if the sewing field size does not match
the clamp feet.
Check the clamping foot and adjust if necessary.
Seam appearances can externally created and edited on a PC,
e.g. using MS Excel or a text editor.
Each line represents a stitch coordinate in the X and Y directions.
The seam appearance has a maximum size of 400 x 3 00 x 1/10 mm.
Negative values and comma-separated values must not be entered.
Information
The operator does not need to perform any calculations in order
to center the seam appearance. The machine automatically centers the seam appearance in the middle of the sewing field. To
subsequently relocate the seam appearance, see chapter saving
seam appearances ( S. 38).
