Additional Features & Benefits
Programmable Needle Up and Down
Select whether the needle is up or down when the machine stops. It is beneficial to have the needle stop in the down position when appliquéing, quilting or pivoting fabric.
Six Fully Automatic One-step Buttonholes
Buttonhole sewing is a one-step simple process, providing reliable results. Each side is sewn in the same direction, creating beautifully balanced buttonholes.
LCD Screen
The LCD provides clear and easy viewing of stitch patterns, including stitch width and length.
Adjustable Stitch Length
Optimal settings for length are automatically adjusted when choosing a stitch. They can be overridden to personalize length choice.
Adjustable Stitch Width
Optimal settings for width are automatically adjusted when choosing a stitch. They can be overridden to personalize width choice.
Center Zigzag Taper
When tapering with the zigzag stitch, the stitch tapers to the center, not the left or right. This provides a more attractive look when tapering into or out of a point.
Automatic Tacking Stitch Function
Tie-off decorative stitches with just a push of a button. With four tiny tacking stitches, the start and end of the pattern is reinforced ensuring quality stitching and preventing unraveling.
Automatic Tie-off Function
The Automatic tie-off function reinforces the start and end of seams (straight stitches) for stronger stitching.
Exclusive Buttonhole Underplate
This is a SINGER-developed system that sandwiches fabric between a lower plate and the foot, to ensure perfect buttonholes on multiple layers of fabric as well as delicate and stretch fabrics.
7mm Stitch Width
When sewing select stitches, the wide stitches are bolder and more pronounced.
20 Character Memory
A memory bank holds full names and simple phrases.
3-Step Infinite Length Bar-Tack Buttonhole
Create buttonholes with endlessly long sides. This is ideal when sewing non-traditional sized buttonholes.
Electronic Twin Needle Control
With just the touch of a button create two parallel rows adding a decorative touch.
13 Needle Positions
Needle position can be adjusted for techniques, such as inserting zippers, cording and topstitching.
Automatic Tension
This system ensures stable stitch quality when straight stitching no matter what type of fabric is being used.
Editing Capabilities
Editing is simple. A cursor button can be moved through the 20-space memory. If a stitch or letter needs to be removed, use the editing button.
Mirror Image
Select stitches can be mirror imaged for decorative stitching.
Continuous Pattern
Select stitches can be sewn either as a single pattern or continuously.
Automatic Presser Foot Pressure Control
The amount of pressure exerted on the fabric by the presser foot against the feed dogs is automatic. Sew from the lightest weight tricots to the heaviest denim without making adjustments.
Jam-Proof Bobbin System
The bobbin case floats above the hook, precluding thread jams. The machine will not jam, even when sewing on sheer fabric or no fabric at all.
2 StayBright LED Lights
The long-lasting bulbs (100,000 hours) stay cool, regardless how long the machine is operated.
Extra-High Presser Foot Lifter
When the Presser Foot Lifter is held in the extra-high position it offers more clearance, which is needed when placing multiple layers of bulky fabric under the presser foot.
Drop Feed Dogs
A conveniently located lever will lower the feed dogs for free-motion embroidery, monograms, and for attaching buttons.
Heavy Duty Metal Frame
This rigid support holds all the mechanisms in perfect alignment for perfect, skip-free sewing.
Automatic Bobbin Winding Clutch
Needle bar automatically disengages when winding the bobbin, making bobbin winding more convenient.
Electronic Stitch Formation
Digital electronic control of the stepper motors that control the pattern formation allows for perfectly formed patterns every time.
Pattern Override Memory
The machine remembers, so you don’t have to. Select a pattern, override the width and/or length, and the machine will remember those changes. Select a different pattern and then return to the overridden pattern —the override settings will still be in place as long as the machine is not turned off.
Box Feed
This is a feed dog motion that moves the feed dogs in a box motion, rather than the historic arc motion. Box motion assures perfect feeding because the feed dogs are always in perfect and equal contact with the fabric and presser foot.
Optimum Power Control
A control system that senses when additional power is required to maintain speed through thick or changing fabric conditions. This feature is most useful when sewing through multiple (6 to 8) layers of fabric.
Snap-On Presser Feet
Change from one to another effortlessly with a simple push of the foot release button.
On Board Storage
Accessories are always within reach.
