Embroidery Foot Type
Select either the Sensor Q-Foot or floating foot. It is very
important that the correct setting is selected for the attached
embroidery foot.
For best embroidery results, select and use the Sensor Q-
Foot and the deLuxe™ stitch system. This is strongly
recommended. Some specific specialty techniques and/or
accessories do not support the use of the Sensor Q-Foot, e.g.
yarn couching and felting.
When the Sensor Q-Foot is selected the machine will lower
the foot to hold the fabric at each stitch. When the floating
foot is selected the machine will lower the foot to a pivot
height above the fabric. When using a floating foot the
presser foot height can be adjusted for improved
performance when using different weights of material and/or
embroidery threads.
Note: The embroidery foot type will automatically be reset to Sensor Q-
Foot at the start of a new project from the JoyOS ADVISOR™
feature. Make sure you attach the Sensor Q-Foot or change the setting
to floating foot (e.g. R-Foot).
Thread Cut Options
Choose between three thread cut options: no thread cuts,
automatic thread cut and a combination of automatic thread
cut and automatic jump stitch trim.
Off
When selected, no automatic thread cuts will be performed
by the machine.
Automatic Thread Cutter
When selected, thread cuts will be automatically performed
in the following situations:
• Upper thread is cut automatically and the presser foot
raises at color changes.
• Bobbin thread and needle thread are cut and the presser
foot raises when an embroidery is finished.
