D - MACHINE FUNCTIONS CONTROLS
1. SEWING A BUTTONHOLE
1.1. Set the machine into the home position as in section
C1 of this chapter. Before starting sewing,
let the machine warm up in this condition for
about 3 minutes.
1.2. Check, if threads are correctly threaded as indicated
in section C3, and place the work piece under
the machine clamps. Correct placement
of the buttonhole on the work piece will facilitate
front stopper
Ê and side stopper Ë that have
adjustable lenghts.
1.3. Pressing slightly the foot pedal into the first position will activate clamping and the work piece will
be clamped. (Releasing the foot pedal will lift the clamps up again).
1.4. Pressing the foot pedal down (into the second position) will start sewing the buttonhole, which has
been selected in the program. Once the buttonhole is sewn, fabric cut and upper thread trimmed,
the clamps go up and the machine comes back into the home position.
1.5. Once the clamps are lifted up, it is possible to move the work piece in order to sew another
buttonhole. If the Indexer device
is activated, the fabric is moved
automatically.
1.6. The machine can be stopped
by the button STOP Ì which
is located on the machine arm,
at any phase of the cycle.
Releasing this button will stop
the machine (Error E01, see
section Troubleshooting).
1.7. Once sewing finished, switch
the machine off. We also
recommend unplugging
the power cable from the socket
and shutting the air supply off.
