Tacking (temporary stitching) can be sewn with the sewing machine to prevent overlapping layers of fabric from
becoming misaligned.

2 From the operation panel, select stitch number A3.
Press the function button until the LED lights up,
and then press the (setting) buttons to set the

3 Adjust the upper thread tension.
Set the upper thread tension dial to “-1”.
4 Position the fabric under the presser foot, and
then lower the presser foot lever.
5 Lightly guide the fabric with your hands, and then step on the foot controller.
* When stitch number A3 is selected, pressing the foot controller only sews one stitch. Only one stitch is sewn, even if
you keep the foot controller pressed down.
