Memo
• You can also specify a maximum sewing
speed to a certain needle bar in the
reserved needle bar settings (refer to
page 144). When you set the slower sewing
speed to a certain needle bar, the sewing
speed set with the procedure described in
this page, will not change the sewing speed
on the balance of the needles. It changes
the speed of the reserved needle.
• Decrease the sewing speed when
embroidering on thin, thick or heavy fabrics.
In addition, the machine embroiders more
quietly at a slower sewing speed.
• The sewing speed can be changed while
embroidery is being sewn.
• The maximum sewing speed setting does
not change until a new setting is selected.
The setting specified before the machine is
turned off remains selected the next time
that the machine is turned on.
• Decrease the sewing speed to 400 spm,
when using a weak thread like a metallic
thread.
