Manuals and resources
Key features
Select any point on the machine to read about that feature.
Easy convenience buttons: locking stitch, needle up down, automatic thread cutter, speed control slider
Locking stitch, needle up/down, the thread cutter and the speed slider are all on the panel, so the machine can be run without reaching for anything.
Direct select keys
The most-used stitches have their own keys, so choosing one is a single press rather than a scroll through a menu.
Built-in needle threader
The threader takes the thread through the eye for you, which is the difference between starting a seam and hunting for reading glasses.
Start/stop button
Sew without the foot pedal — useful for free-motion work, and for anyone who would rather not hold a pedal down for an hour.
15 needle positions
15 needle positions let you set exactly where a straight stitch lands, which makes edge stitching and repeatable seam allowances easier to control.
Top-loading bobbin
The bobbin drops in from above through a clear cover, so you can see how much thread is left without taking the work off the machine.
