Light Serging System (LSS)
Unique built-in side cutter lets you trim, sew and finish seams in one easy step. Trimming mechanism swings down and locks in place for added stability and safety.

Drop feed Dog
For attaching buttons, free-motion quilting, darning, etc. Simply slide the lever to drop the feed.
Convenient One-hand thread cutter
Since threads are cut neatly, you can easily start sewing again, without the trouble of tangled threads or an unthreadable needle.
Magnetic type horizontal full rotary hook

Convenient Carrying handle
