Stitch width safety

needle plate or a straight stitch presser foot to lock

the center needle position for all stitches to prevent

damage to the needle, presser foot or needle plate.

When turning on the machine with this setting

activated and for every stitch selection that is not

a straight stitch, a pop-up informs you that it is set

to straight stitch. Deselect stitch width safety to go

back to normal sewing.

out.

Note: Your machine will also cut the thread after you

have changed to a new color. Hold the thread end when

you start embroidering again, so that you can easily

remove the thread end when cut.

Designs marked with this symbol are

trim commands can be added to any design

activated. The presser foot will raise to pivot height

for example when stopping with the needle in the

down position. When deselected, the presser foot

will stay lowered even if the machine stops with

the needle in down position.

performance you sometimes need to do a

defragmentation. When that needs to be done a

pop-up message appears. To defragment your

motion.

Sensormatic free-motion

Activate to set the machine in Sensormatic free-

motion mode for presser foot 6A. The feed dogs

will lower automatically.

When sewing free-motion at low speed the presser

foot will raise and lower with each stitch to hold

the fabric on the needle plate while the stitch is

being formed. At higher speed, the presser foot

ﬂoats over the fabric while sewing. The fabric must

be moved manually.

To adjust the presser foot height in Sensormatic

free-motion mode, long touch the icon (D) and

make adjustments in the pop-up.

Note: Make sure that the IDT is disengaged.

plate while the stitch is being formed.

Note: Make sure that the IDT is disengaged.

The open-toe free-motion feet are optional and can be

purchased at your local authorized PFAFF® dealer. Do

not use if Sensormatic free-motion is activated, since the

needle might damage the presser foot.

The open-toe free-motion feet, or any spring foot

with light grey plastic housing, can also be used for

embroidery.

foot pressure. Specialty techniques may require

an adjustment. The higher the number the more
