SERVICE MANUAL
Feed mechanism
1. Feed amount 0 to 5 mm (in increments of 0.1 mm in the range from 0.2 to 1.0 mm, and
1.5 mm, 2.0 mm, 2.3 mm, 2.5 mm, 3.0 mm, 3.5 mm, 4 mm, 4.5 and
5.0mm)
2. Reverse stitching length 0 to 2.5 mm (for straight stitch) Fixed at 0.5 mm (for the other patterns)
4. Reverse stitching The machine performs reverse stitching at low speed (11 rpm) while the
reverse stitching switch is ON.
6. Descending of feed dog Automatically comes down when the embroidering device is set on the
machine.
Special-purpose mechanism
1. Automatic thread tension controller
By the thread-feeding stepping motor Manual switch for increasing/decreasing the amount of needle
thread of the automatic thread tension controller by a material thickness sensor (to
increase/decrease the amount of thread in 8 steps).
2. Automatic thread trimmer
Lateral STM is actuated by pressing the thread-trimming switch so as to bring the thread trimming
mechanism in the standby state. Then the hook driving shaft turns one and a half times (when the
machine has sloped with its needle down) or two times (when the machine has stopped with its
needle up) by the sewing machine drive motor and the main shaft is disengaged at the first turn. The
machine actuates the thread trimming knife to cut the thread (115 rpm) and stops with its needle up.
Disengagement of the main shaft is released before stop.
3. Automatic backtack sewing
By pressing la key after selecting the pattern, backtack sewing is performed at beginning and end of
sewing, and the needle and bobbin threads are cut finally.
4. Helpful pictograph
Operation lever, bobbin winder, buttonholing set, running out of needle thread, pattern selection
display, inoperative key display, limit of pattern memory display, pattern in storing, calling display
(when the embroidering device is set), needle raising indication, embroidery frame installing
indication, embroidery frame changing indication, embroidery card inserting indication, difference of
embroidery carc indication, pattern clearing indication, and bobbin thread remaining amount
indication.
5. Automatic needle threading mechanism
When setting thread to the thread retaining section of the thread transfer body, threading from the
section to needle is automatically performed by pressing the key of the operation panel.
6. Automatic buttonholing
Auto return type fully automatic buttonholing.
Buttonhole size detection, automatic stop after backtracking at the sewing end (backtracked (L and
S) keyhole), and purl stitching using super buttonholing button is possible. Buttonholing plate is
provided.
7. Bobbin thread remaining amount.
Bobbin thread remaining amount is detected by the LED sensor when the bobbin thread is running
out, and the message is shown on the LCD. Then the sewing machine stops.

8. Limit sensor.
In order to prevent the bobbin from being excessively wound when automatically winding bobbin, the
sensor monitors during bobbin winding and detects that the bobbin is wound more than the specified
amount. Then bobbin winding automatically stops.
9. Pattern selection.
Direct selection of Patterns through a transparent touch panel and indication of selected pattern on
LCD.
10. Number of patterns
Practical patterns 87, Continuous patterns 58, Adherence one point 34, One point 167, Lettering
characters 4 fonts 450, large pattern 44.
11. Constant-position needle bar stopper.
The machine stops with its needle up or down using the synchronizer shield plate and detector
(photo-interrupter) mounted on the main shaft.
When the thread trimming presser is raised, when the embroidering device is used or when the
bobbin is to be wound, the machine stops with its needle up. In a case other than those described
above, the machine stops with its needle down.
12. Prevention of wrong-setting of needle.
It is designed so as not to insert the needle in the wrong direction.
13. Operation guide.
How to operate the sewing machine, advice and how to sew are indicated on LCD.
14. Prevention of overheat of motor.
If the sewing machine motor shaft is locked, the power supplied to the motor is automatically turned
OFF after 1 to 1.5 seconds.
If the motor becomes extraordinarily hot in such cases as the sewing machine continuously runs at
high speed, the thermal sensor built in the motor detects and stops the machine operation. (The
power is turned ON again after the motor has cooled down.)
15. Automatic bobbin winder.
When performing the embroidering, exclusive bobbin thread can be wound to bobbin without
removing bobbin. In addition, after bobbin winding, threading to bobbin thread tension spring and
thread cutting are performed. Then sewing can continue.
A large scale and original circuit is necessary for the computer sewing machine. The circuit is built in
the IC, which is the exclusive one produced for this model only.

Power consumption
Sewing machine main unit. 120V 60 Hz
(Lamp only) 13.5V 3 W
Technical explanation
Sewing speed
In case of embroidering, the sewing speed automatically changes over according to travel amount of
X-feed and Y-feed of embroidery STMs regardless of the slide controller. (800, 750, 41 0 and 245
rpm) Max. sewing speed (800 rpm) is limited according to the position of slide variable resistor.

1. Adjusting the inclination and the longitudinal position of thread retaining plate A, temporarily
determine the height and fix it.
2. Turn the bobbin thread intermediate gear by hand to move thread retaining plate A in the
state that the throat plate and the hook cover are attached.

the forward end position (above the inner hook) to the backward end position.
4. Insert a hexagon wrench key from the frame hole and loosen the thread retaining plate C
