High-Speed, Clean Finish & Intelligent Control

• Direct-drive motor: mounted directly to the main shaft for fast response, smooth acceleration and low vibration.
• Needle positioner: automatically stops the needle up or down, making it easier to pivot fabric, align corners and restart seams.
• Automatic thread trimmer: activate with a back-kick on the pedal—the machine cuts the thread automatically at the end of the seam, reducing manual trimming.
• Integrated LED light: bright, focused lighting directly over the needle area for better visibility on dark fabrics and detailed work.
• High-speed straight stitch: ideal for everyday sewing on light to medium fabrics with professional stitch quality.

2. Alterations & tailoring – hemming, repairs, taking in/letting out garments.
