Starting To Sew; Start And End Of Seam - Singer 9960 Manual De Instrucciones

STARTING TO SEW

The machine will be set to sew straight stitch when
power switch is turned on.
CAUTION: To prevent accidents.
While sewing, special care is required around the
needle.
Machine automatically feeds the fabric, do not pull
or push the fabric.
A. START AND END OF SEAM
1. Check the presser foot (General Purpose
Presser Foot). Refer to page 14 for changing
the presser foot.
2. Place the fabric under the presser foot and
lower the presser foot.
3. Hold back both threads and press the start/stop
button or press the foot controller pedal.
Keep holding threads after sewing a few
stitches.
Lightly guide the fabric while sewing.
You can regulate the sewing speed by sliding
the speed control button.
Also, you can reduce the sewing speed by
pressing the slow button.
4. When you reach end of seam, press the start/
stop button to stop sewing or release the foot
controller pedal.
5. Press the thread cutter button.
6. Raise the presser foot lifter and remove the
fabric.
Upper Thread Sensor
If upper thread is broken or missing, machine will
stop automatically.
Rethread the upper thread and resume sewing.
CAUTION
1. Do not press the thread cutter button when
there is no fabric in the machine or no need to
cut the threads. The thread may tangle,
resulting in damage.
2. Do not use the thread cutter button when
cutting thread thicker than #30, nylon thread or
other speciality threads.
In this case, use the thread cutter located on
the left side of the machine. (See page 22)
NOTE
After you cut the threads by using the thread cutter
button, hold upper thread only at the next starting
of seam. (No need to draw up the bobbin thread)
