If the thread breaks or the bobbin thread runs out while embroidering, the machine will automatically stop. Since some stitches may be sewn with only one thread, go back through the stitching to a point where stitches have already been sewn before continuing embroidering.

Specifying a stitch number

If the bobbin thread breaks or runs out

 

1. Touch  , and then press the thread trimming button. 
   

        → The upper thread is trimmed.

   • If the bobbin thread breaks or runs out, also trim the upper thread.

 

 

 

 

 

2. Remove the stitches sewn only with the upper thread.

   Pull the trim end of the upper thread.

    

   

   • If the stitches cannot be cleanly removed, trim the thread with scissors.

 

 

 

 

3. If the bobbin thread ran out, replace the bobbin with a bobbin wound with bobbin thread.
    

   

   • If the hook cover can be opened, replace the bobbin without removing the embroidery frame from the machine.
   • If the machine bed is hidden, for example, with a bagshaped piece of fabric, or if the hook cover cannot be opened, temporarily remove the embroidery frame. After replacing the bobbin, reattach the embroidery frame.

   If the embroidery frame is removed before embroidering of the pattern is finished, take caution, otherwise the pattern may become misaligned.

   • Do not apply extreme pressure to the framed fabric and cause it to become loose.
   • When removing and re-attaching the embroidery frame, do not allow the frame to hit the carriage or the presser foot. If the carriage is hit and moves, turn the machine off, then on again. The correct frame position at the time that the machine was stopped is stored in the machine’s memory, and the embroidery frame is returned to the correct position.
   • When the embroidery frame is re-attached, make sure that the pins on the left and right arms of the embroidery frame holder securely fit into the holes in the handles on the embroidery frame.

 

 

 

 

4. Go back through the stitching in the same way as that described in step 2 of "If the upper thread breaks", and then continue embroidering.
