"SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS"

"This embroidery machine is intended for household use."

FOR USERS IN THE UK, EIRE, MALTA AND CYPRUS ONLY.

If your embroidery machine is fitted with a 3 pin non rewireable BS plug then please read the following.

IMPORTANT

If the available socket outlet is not suitable for the plug supplied with this equipment, it should be cut off and an appropriate three pin plug fitted. With alternative plugs an approved fuse must be fitted in the plug.

NOTE

The plug severed from the main lead must be destroyed as a plug with bare flexible cord is hazardous if engaged in a live socket outlet. In the event of replacing the plug fuse, use a fuse approved by ASTA to BS 1362, i.e. carrying the mark, rating as marked on plug.

Always replace the fuse cover, never use plugs with the fuse cover omitted.

WARNING

DO NOT CONNECT EITHER WIRE TO THE EARTH TERMINAL WHICH IS MARKED WITH THE LETTER 'E', BY THE EARTH SYMBOL OR COLOURED GREEN OR YELLOW.

The wires in this mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code:

Blue Neutral

Brown Live

As the colours of the wiring in the main lead of this appliance may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows.

The wire which is coloured blue must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter 'N' or coloured black or blue.

The wire which is coloured brown must be connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter 'L' or coloured red or brown.

IMPORTANT (In the United Kingdom)

Mains Supply (AC 230/240V \~ , 50 Hz only)

DO NOT cut off the mains plug from this equipment. If the plug fitted is not suitable for the power points in your home or the cable is too short to reach a power point, then obtain an appropriate safely approved extension lead or consult your dealer.

BE SURE to replace the fuse only with an identical approved type, as originally fitted, and to replace the fuse cover.

If nonetheless the mains plug is cut off ensure to remove the fuse and dispose of the plug immediately, to avoid a possible shock hazard by inadvertent connection to the mains supply.

Attaching stabilizer material

BROTHER PE-190D - Attaching stabilizer material - 1

text_image Diagram of a device with labeled parts, showing layered structure with numbered annotations.

Attach a stabilizer material to the reverse side of the area of fabric to be embroidered.

It is not necessary to attach a stabilizer material to fabric which is already sufficiently stiff. For thin, knit and stretch fabric which may move in the frame, attach the fabric to a non-woven stabilizer material before embroidering.

The stabilizer material should be framed along with the fabric for the best results.

There are many types of non-woven stabilizers available on the market. The goal of the stabilizer is to prevent stretch or movement of the fabric. Best results for stretch, knit or light weight fabrics will be obtained by using a light weight non-woven iron-on stabilizer.

The machine stops automatically when the upper thread breaks. When this happens do the following.

  1. If the upper thread breaks.

* Re-thread the upper thread. If the lower thread breaks or the bobbin runs out of the thread.

* Cut the upper thread above the fabric in the frame and then remove the embroidery frame. Replace the lower (bobbin) thread and then re-attach the embroidery frame.

  1. Touch "BACK" to move back a few stitches to slightly before the position where the thread broke or the bobbin ran out of the thread.

* If it is not possible to move back to the position where the thread broke, touch "REVERSE SEARCH" to move back to the beginning of that color, and then touch "FORWARD" to move forward to just before the position where the thread broke or the bobbin ran out of the thread.

  1. Lower the presser foot lever and press the "START/STOP" button to restart embroidering.

* If the machine stopped because the upper thread ran out, the upper thread may be tangled on the reverse side of the fabric (thread nesting). Remove the embroidery frame to check for this and trim off any excess build up.

① "START/STOP" button

If you stop the machine by pressing the "START/STOP" button and need to adjust the stitch location.

Touch "HELP".

Follow the same procedure as for "The machine stops automatically when the thread breaks."

Caution

- This machine is equipped with a thread breakage sensor. Accordingly, if the upper thread is not threaded, the machine will not operate even if the “START/STOP” button is pressed. In addition, a loud noise which is different from the normal operation noise is generated by the needle bar holding mechanism during layout changes, layout change tests and also when the embroidery frame travels a lot during embroidery. This sound is normal and is not the result of a malfunction.

- If the power goes off during embroidering:

  • Turn the power off and unplug the machine. Damage may occur if the machine is on when the power comes back on.
  • To start again, while the main power switch is off, plug the unit in. Then turn the main power switch on and select an operation. Refer to page 54, using the "HELP" function to get back to the point where the machine went off.

If the accessory frame is too large to hold the fabric to be embroidered, you can use the optional small frame.

① Embroidery sheet
② Embroidering range (Maximum)

Height: 70 mm (2-3/4")

Width: 70 mm (2-3/4")

CAUTION

Take note of the following when using the small frame.

  1. Always make sure that the initial setting operation for the carriage (embroidery arm) after the power is turned on — in other words, the movement of the carriage (embroidery arm) in order to set the position — is completed before installing the small embroidery frame.
  2. If you do not change the position of the pattern on the "LAYOUT" screen, check that the embroidering area for the pattern selected is within 70 mm (2-3/4") in height and width by touching the "LAYOUT" key. If it is, the pattern can be embroidered correctly.
  3. If you have changed the position of the pattern using the arrow keys in the "LAYOUT" screen, use the "TRIAL" function to check that the pattern does not extend past the edges of the frame before starting embroidering. Before touching "TRIAL", raise the needle and the presser foot lever to their highest positions.

Embroidering handkerchiefs and cuffs

Set the handkerchief into the small frame. You can use the rotation function to move the needle to the desired embroidering location.

Embroidering items which won't fit into the frame

For items which won't fit into the frame, baste or iron a piece of stabilizer fabric onto the part to be embroidered, and then place the entire piece into the frame together with the fabric to be embroidered.

  1. Check the lengths of the patterns you wish to embroider continuously by touching "LAYOUT". If the length is within 18.2 cm (7-3/16"), you can proceed with embroidering just by changing the embroidery location, without having to re-set the fabric in the frame.

① Finished appearance
② Within 18.2 cm (7-3/16")

After selecting the pattern, touch "LAYOUT" to check the size of the pattern.

The size of the pattern is displayed on the left side on the screen.

  1. Draw a line on the fabric marking the place where the patterns will be embroidered. Find the center line, and then draw the line along the whole length of the pattern, marking it off into two even lengths. Mark the embroidery start position with a cross by drawing another line across this line.
    ① Embroidery start position
  2. Align the line on the fabric with a line on the embroidery sheet, and fit the fabric and embroidery sheet into the frame. Clamp the frame with the carriage at the place indicated by "a". (see next page)
  3. After touching "LAYOUT", touch "90° clockwise" to change the arrow in the display so that it points to the right. Then touch "START/CENTER" to set the current needle position as the embroidery start position.

  1. Use the arrow keys to move the needle to the embroidery start position, and then start embroidering.
  2. Move the frame to the place indicated by "c" and clamp it again with the carriage.
  3. Embroider the next pattern. If using the same pattern, go straight ahead and start embroidering. If using a different pattern, select the new pattern. After touching "LAYOUT", touch "90° clockwise" to change the arrow in the display so that it points to the right. Then touch "START/CENTER" to set the current needle position as the embroidery start position.
  4. Use the arrow keys to move the needle to the previous embroidery end position, and then continue embroidering.
