Finding the sewing position

By locking the needle bar (securing the needle 
and presser foot in the down position), the 
needle drop point can easily be seen.

1

As shown in the illustration, insert the Allen 
screwdriver into the hole in the needle 
clamp to slowly lower the needle bar down 
till needle bar stops then clicks into the lock 
position.

Note

●

Make sure that the needle is not lowered 
beyond the positioning click into the 
fabric.

X

The needle and presser foot are locked in 
the down position.

Touch the arrow keys in the embroidery 
settings screen to move the embroidery 
frame so that the needle drop point is at the 
center of the area where you wish to 
embroider.

• With a USB mouse, your finger or the 

touch pen, drag the pattern to move it.

• When specifying the starting of stitching, 

align the needle drop point with the point 
specified as the starting of stitching. (For 
details on specifying the starting/ending of 
stitching, refer to page 123.)

Adjusting the angle

Depending on the type of fabric being 
embroidered, it may not be possible to stretch the 
fabric in the embroidery frame at the desired angle. 
In this case, adjust the angle of the pattern so that it 
is correctly positioned on the fabric.
