The machine features a removable accessory compartment that converts the flatbed into a free arm. This is ideal for sewing cuffs, pant hems, and other circular seams.

4. Betjeningsvejledning

4.1 Valg af sting

The HD0500S offers 2, 3, and 4-thread configurations with 6 different stitch types. Refer to your machine's stitch guide for specific settings for each stitch type (e.g., overlock, rolled hem, flatlock).

4.2 Justering af stingindstillinger

• Stingbredde: Adjust the stitch width dial to achieve the desired seam finish.
• Stinglængde: Adjust the stitch length dial (range 1.0 to 4.0 mm) to suit your fabric and project needs.
• Trykfodstryk: Adjust the presser foot pressure to ensure even feeding of various fabric types, from delicate sheers to heavy denim.

4.3 Justering af differentialfremføring

The differential feed system prevents fabric stretching or puckering on knits and sheers, and can also be used to create decorative ruffles.

• Turn the differential feed dial to adjust the ratio between the front and rear feed dogs.
• For normal sewing, set the dial to 'N' (normal).
• For stretching fabric, increase the ratio. For gathering or ruffling, decrease the ratio.

The HD0500S operates at up to 1,300 stitches per minute. Control the speed using the foot controller. Apply gentle pressure for slower speeds and increased pressure for higher speeds.
