5. Operating Instructions
5.1 Control Panel and Design Selection
The machine features a user-friendly touchscreen control panel. Navigate through specific screens to select designs, adjust settings, and prepare for embroidery. The system alerts you if a step is missed, such as lowering the presser foot.

5.3 Adjusting Thread Tension
Proper thread tension is crucial for quality stitches. If the bobbin thread shows on the front, the top tension is too loose. Adjust the tension settings incrementally until the bobbin thread is not visible on the front and only slightly visible on the back (approximately 30-33% showing).
6. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your embroidery machine. This includes cleaning and checking for wear and tear on parts.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter issues with stitch quality, particularly with bobbin thread showing, adjust the top thread tension. The machine's user-friendly interface will often provide alerts for common errors, such as forgetting to lower the presser foot.
