TASK 4: Practice sewing on bar tacking machine and adjust the thread tension
1 Check that the needle bar is at its highest position. Turn the machine pulley so that the index mark (1) on the
pulley is between the marks(2) on the belt cover. (Fig 1)

Fig 1

If the machine pulley stop position is incorrect, error “E-50” may be displaced, or the wiper may come into
contact with the needle and break the tip of the needle.
2 Turn on the power switch. (The POWER indicator will illuminate and the program number will flash in the
display).
3 Depress the foot switch to the 2nd step (For two-pedal foot switch, depress the start switch (right side) ) as the
feed mechanism will move to the starting position and the work clamp will rise. (Fig 2).

Fig 2

Note that if the foot switch is pressed to the 2nd step while the program number is illuminated, the machine will
start operating.
4 Place the fabric to be sewn under the work clamp (3), and then depress the foot switch. (Fig 3).
When the foot switch is pressed to the 1st step, the work clamp (3) will lower.
If you would like to shift the position of the material, release the foot switch. The work clamp (3) will then rise
again. When the foot switch is pressed to the 2nd step, the machine will start operating.
For two-pedal foot switch, depress the work clamp switch (left side) to lower the work clamp before depressing
the start switch (right side) in order to start the machine.
