Operation mode of the quick stroke adjustment
The activation period of the maximum sewing foot stroke depends on the set operation
mode. It is possible to choose between three operation modes.
The individual operation modes are determined by the adjustment of the parameters F-138
and F-184 at the control panel (see enclosed instructions of the motor manufacturer).
