Technical Manual & Parts Lists

Loading and Adjusting the Folder

Activate the folder up switch to raise the folder. Feed the border through the top

portion of the folder; heal the treadle to raise the measuring wheel, feed the border
through the bottom of the folder and under the presser foot and puller. The border

material must extend pass the length marker. Adjust the folder seam guides to make a
snug fit to the tape seams. Adjust the folder left or right as necessary to set the desired

stitch margin. The folder spacers should be sized as required to fit the thickness of the

border. The seam guides must be at least as thick as the seams are high when the seams
are standing straight up. Extra spacers can be ordered to fit any thickness from 1/16" to

1/2". Activate the folder up switch to lower the folder. The machine will not ruffle or
detect the corners with the folder up, however it will sew (for manual operation).

Adjusting the Edge Guide

The edge guide located on the front of the table should be set so its left edge aligns

with the right edge of the gusset. This is the guide for the right edge of the panel.

Loading the Panel and Border/Gusset

Heal back the treadle or step on the foot lift pedal to raise the presser foot. Swing in

the stripper blade and the folder/ruffler assembly. Be sure the sensor at the back of the

swing-out bracket is lit indicating that the bracket is all the way in to the detent. Pull the
border through the folder, under the presser foot and under the puller. Load the panel

under the border, stripper blade, and presser foot with the center of the short side even

with the needle and the edge of the panel against the edge guide. Lower the presser foot.
Be sure the machine is in PANEL MODE and the folder is down.

Sewing the Panel with Rounded Corners

Go to the SETUP - PANEL MODE screen and set the ROUND CORNER button so it has a

WHITE background indicating ROUND CORNER mode. Set the Ruffles per Corner, Stitches
per Ruffle, and Stop Count as desired. Return to the Main screen.

Sew the panel all the way to corner being sure not to get your hands in the way of the

electric eye mounted under the table that must "see" the edge of the panel as it nears the

presser foot. The machine will stop automatically at the corner. Go to neutral treadle as

you position your hands for turning. Place your right hand on the panel near the presser
foot and your left hand about 1 foot to the left on the panel. Treadle forward and allow the

machine to make the first ruffle sewing straight. Begin to rotate the panel as the rest of
the ruffles are formed. Try to turn an equal amount with each ruffle so that when the

ruffles are complete the panel has turned 90 degrees and the right edge of the panel is

resting against the left edge of the edge guide. The ruffles can be made one at a time by
going to neutral treadle between each ruffle. Complete all four corners.

Sewing the Panel with Straight Corners

Go to the SETUP - PANEL MODE screen and set the ROUND CORNER button so it has a

DARK background indicating STRAIGHT CORNER mode. Set the Ruffles per Corner and
Stitches per Ruffle as desired. When the RUFFLES per CORNER is set to an even number

(2, 4, etc.) the machine will make half of the ruffles on each side of the corner. When the
Ruffles per Corner is set to an odd number (1, 3, 5, etc) the machine will make the odd

ruffle on the second side. Example: If Ruffles per Corner is set to 3, the machine will
make 1 ruffle on the first side of the corner and 2 ruffles on the second side of the corner.

Set the Ruffles per Corner, Stitches per Ruffle, and Stop Count as desired. Return to the

Main screen.

Sew the panel to the corner being sure not to get your hands in the way of the electric

eye mounted under the table, which must "see" the edge of the panel as it nears the
presser foot. The machine will pause momentarily as the ruffler engages and then
