The zigzag base line is the “center” of the zigzag stitch, or in other words, it is like a center line drawn through the
sewing pattern.
By moving the zigzag base line position, you can move the sewing pattern to the left and right within the maximum
range for the pattern width.

Zigzag base line position indicator
w
If the zigzag base line position has been set to something other than
AA AA
, the zigzag base line position indicator
w
will illuminate so that you can check whether the zigzag base line position has been set to a position other than the
center.

1. Press the zigzag base line position key
q
.
The indicator
w
will illuminate, and the zigzag base
line position currently set will flash on the LED display
e
.
(For example,
AA AA
indicates that the pattern posi-
tion is 2.0 mm to the left, and
AA AA
indicates that the
pattern position is 2.0 mm to the right.)
2. Press the
쑶
and
쑴
selection keys
r
to change the
zigzag base line position.
• If changing the setting from
AA AA
, first change the
numerals, and then set “L” or “r”.
• Use the
쑶쑴
selection keys to set [L] or [r] in the
second column from the left in the LED display
e
.
Note:
If the needle bar is at the needle up stop position, the
needle bar will move to the sewing start position when
the zigzag base line position is changed.
If the needle bar is not at the needle up stop position,
the needle bar will move to the sewing start position
after it next moves to the needle up stop position.

Relationship between zigzag base line position and zigzag width (when the maximum zigzag width is 8 mm)
By way of example, consider a sewing pattern (Figure
A
) with a zigzag base line position set to
AA AA
and a zigzag
width set to
AA AA
. If the zigzag base line position is set to
AA AA
, the pattern will be moved over toward the left
edge (Figure
B
). The sewing pattern cannot move any further to the left even if a larger setting is made. (Even if the
zigzag base line position is set to
AA AA
, the sewing pattern position will be the same as if the setting had been
AA AA
(Figure
C
.)
However, in this case, if the zigzag width is set to
AA AA
, a sewing pattern such as that shown in Figure
D
will be
produced.
