grounding. No grounding means is provided on a double-insulated product nor
should a means for grounding be added to the product. Servicing a doubleinsulated
product requires extreme care and knowledge of the system and should only be
done by qualified service personnel. Replacement parts for a double-insulated
product must be identical to those parts in the product. A double insulated product is
marked with the words "DOUBLE INSULATION" or "DOUBLE INSULATED".

The symbol may also be marked on the product.

The black button on the left side of the presser
foot will lock the presser foot in a horizontal
position if you push it in before lowering the
presser foot. This ensures even feeding at the

thickness, lower the needle and raise the
presser foot. Press the toe of the foot and push
in the black button, then lower the foot and
continue sewing.

Important Embroidery information


Embroidery threads
A good quality thread is essential for embroidery to avoid poor stitch formation, thread breakage, etc.

Embroider threads A good thread is essential for embroidery to avoid poor stitch formation, thread
breakage, etc. EverSewn is recommending using Isacord® thread for your embroidery.

Polyester threads
Polyester with a brilliant sheen is a hard wearing colorfast thread and has a high tensile strength
which is suitable for all types of embroidery.

Rayon threads
Rayon is a soft viscose fiber with a brilliant sheen and suitable for fine, delicate embroidery, or items
that will not receive excessive wear and tear.

Metallic threads
Metallic thread is a light- to medium weight thread suitable for special effects in embroidery.
Reduce the speed and the upper thread tension when embroidering with metallic threads.

Embroidery needle
- Correct size thread must correspond with correct size needle.
- Replace the needle regularly.

Note:
Use the second spool pin when using metallic or specialty threads.

Lower threads
Bobbin Fill (special bobbin thread)
Bobbin Fill is an especially soft and light polyester thread suitable for bobbin thread. This special
bobbin thread ensures a steady thread tension and an optimal intertwining of the upper and bobbin
thread.

Darning and embroidery thread


Fine mercerized cotton thread which is suitable for embroidering on cotton.

Note:
In most cases, bobbin thread for embroidery is either white or black. Some special cases require the
same thread in top and bobbin.

Stabilizer: EverSewn is recommending using OESD® stabilizer for your embroidery.


Tear-away stabilizers
- Excess is easily torn away.
- One or more layers can be used.
- Available in different weights.
- For more stability, apply to the wrong side of the material with temporary adhesive spray before
hooping.
- Carefully tear away excess stabilizer from the back of the embroidery after stitching.
- Designs are not skewed.
- Stabilizer will remain under larger embroidered areas.
Application: For all woven materials and materials without stretch.

Cut-away stabilizers
- One or more layers can be used.
- Available in different weights.
- For more stability, apply to the wrong side of the material with temporary adhesive spray before
hooping.
- Carefully cut away from the back of the embroidery after stitching.
- Designs are not skewed.
- Stabilizer will remain under larger embroidered areas.
Application: For all elastic materials.

Adhesive Spray
Avoid using spray adhesive next to your embroidery system.
- At a distance of 25-30 cm use adhesive spray carefully.
- Spray the stabilizer and adhere to the wrong side of the material carefully smoothing
material so that there are no puckers.
Application:
- Stretch and knitted material: to retain shape.
- Smooth material: to avoid slipping of material layers.
- Appliqués can be exactly positioned.
- Material pieces: position material pieces on stabilizer, e.g.pocket flaps.
- Napped materials (i.e. velvet) that should not be clamped in the hoop to avoid getting hoop marks.
- To fix the parts to be embroidered.

Spray starch for additional stiffening


Spray starch is ideal for additional stiffening of fine, soft or loosely woven materials.
- Spray the area to be embroidered
- Let dry; or press gently with a warm iron if necessary
- Always use an additional stabilizer such as water soluble stabilizer on the wrong side of the material.
Application: Ideal for fine, loosely woven materials, e.g. batiste, fine linen, etc.

75
All manuals and user guides at all-guides.com
EMBROIDERY

Iron-on interfacing
Iron-on interfacings are available in a variety of weights. Iron-on
interfacings should be selected to suit the material being used. Use an
iron-on interfacing which is easily removable from the material.
Iron-on interfacings are pressed (fused) to the wrong side of the material
Application: To provide body and shape for the materials onto which
designs will be placed, use the appropriate stabilizer.

Paper-backed adhesive stabilizer


Place stabilizer in hoop, paper side up.
- Use a pointed object (e.g. scissors) to score the paper.
- Remove paper to reveal the self-adhesive surface.
- The self-adhesive surface reveals.
- Position the material to be embroidered on the stabilizer and smoothen the area.

Application:
- Intended for delicate materials such as jersey or silk etc.
- For hard-to-hoop parts and materials.

Note:
Make sure that the adhesive residue on needle, stitch plate and hook area is removed.

Water soluble stabilizer


Water soluble stabilizers look like plastic wrap. Dissolve stabilizer in warm water when the
embroidery is complete. Water soluble stabilizers are ideal protection for materials with a thick or
looped pile such as toweling. This prevents the threads from sinking into the material and prevents
the material from showing through the embroidery stitches.
- Place on top of the material.
- Place all the layers together into the embroidery hoop.
- Use adhesive spray to fix stabilizer if necessary.
- For material with a pile, reinforce with additional, suitable stabilizer on the wrong side.
- After dissolving lay the design down flat and let dry.

Application:
- Ideal for toweling, velvet, bouclé etc.
- Ideal for fine, sheer materials such as organdy, batiste, etc.
- For lace embroidery.
