BEFORE YOU START

It is important to perform the upgrade according to the procedure described in the Installation Guide. The machine

can then be used as described in the Operation Manual. The border embroidery frame (30 cm × 10 cm (approx. 11-

3/4 inches × 4 inches)) will show on the LCD screen of the machine and the frame will be recognized when

attached to the embroidery frame holder. New machine features and benefits are described in this guide.

NEW FEATURES

• A border embroidery frame (30 cm × 10 cm (approx. 11-3/4 inches × 4 inches)) is included, allowing the

fabric to easily be rehooped when embroidering repeated patterns.

• Instead of using a thread mark, the built-in camera can be used to connect embroidery patterns. (Embroidery

Edit)

• Ten embroidery designs created to show the convenience and potential of the border embroidery frame are

available on the included CD. To view a list of the patterns, refer to page 45.

EMBROIDERING WITH THE BORDER EMBROIDERY

FRAME (30 cm × 10 cm (approx. 11-3/4 inches × 4

inches))

About the Border Embroidery Frame

Since the fabric can easily be repositioned and

rehooped when the border embroidery frame is used,

this frame is useful for embroidering repeated

patterns while sliding the fabric. An added feature of

this frame is that the pressure applied by the upper

and lower frames will not leave an indentation in the

fabric. An area of 30 cm × 10 cm (approx. 11-3/4

inches × 4 inches) can be embroidered.

Sample Projects Using the Border

Embroidery Frame

We recommend using the border embroidery frame

when repeated patterns are embroidered at the edges of

items such as curtains, chair covers, bed covers,

tablecloths and blankets.

CAUTION

• Do not leave the border embroidery frame within

the reach of children, otherwise injuries may result.

Note

• When the border embroidery frame is not being

used, unlock it before storing it.

• Due to its construction, the border embroidery frame

does not hold fabric as tightly as other frames. Since

fabric shrinkage may occur, depending on the fabric

and pattern used, be sure to sew trial embroidery on

a piece of scrap fabric before sewing your project.

Selecting a Pattern

aPress .

bOn page 6/8 for the embroidery frame display

settings, select one of the embroidery frame

displays for the border embroidery frame (30

cm × 10 cm (approx. 11-3/4 inches × 4

inches)). Press to return to the previous

screen.

* Of the 16 settings available, there are 2 for border

embroidery frames (30 cm × 10 cm (approx. 11-3/4 inches

× 4 inches)).

dUse the border function to repeat the pattern.

Memo

• For details for the border function, refer to

“Designing Repeated Patterns” in chapter 6 of the

Operation Manual for the sewing machine.

eIf necessary, assign thread marks. Since the

pattern will be repeatedly embroidered from

the top to the bottom, add the thread mark to

the lower center of the bottom pattern. When

you are finished, press .

→Touch and , or and to highlight

the design for inserting thread marks.

Note

• Do not add thread marks to character patterns.

• Add thread marks to patterns that do not have a

point of alignment, such as rotated patterns or

patterns that are spaced apart. Patterns that can be

aligned visually can be embroidered cleanly without

the thread mark.

Memo

• Select the location where the thread mark is to be

added according to the direction that the embroidery

is repeated.

If the design direction is rotated, use the following

suggestions.

• If there is excess fabric after the center of the

embroidering area is aligned with the center of the

border embroidery frame, fold over the excess

fabric, place it on top of the upper frame, and then

press down on the levers. Be careful that the folded

excess fabric is not caught in the embroidering area.

CAUTION

• After firmly hooping the fabric in the border

embroidery frame, attach the frame to the

embroidery unit. Otherwise, the needle may break

and cause injuries.

• Before attaching the border embroidery frame to

the embroidery unit, make sure that the needle and

presser foot have been raised. Otherwise, the

needle may break and cause injuries.

Note

embroidery unit carriage does not move to its initial

position, even after the thread is cut, turn off the

machine, manually gently move the carriage, and

then remove the border embroidery frame.

• Only move the embroidery unit carriage when the

machine is turned off.

Note

• Adjust the position of the fabric so that the

embroidering area for the next pattern is within the

embroidering area of the embroidery sheet.
