Free-Hand System (FHS)

• Raise and lower presser foot easily
• Both hands free to guide the fabric
• To be used with your knee

With the BERNINA Free Hand System (FHS) you can raise and lower the presser foot with your knee. This noticeably improves clearance under the presser foot, which in turn facilitates fabric handling. You will save time and achieve perfect results!

Exact speed control

• Stitch by stitch sewing
• Sew up to 1,500 stitches per minute
• Automatic needle stop up

The BERNINA Foot Control and DC motor allow a top speed of up to 1,500 stitches per minute but also stitch by stitch sewing. This makes it easy to work with delicate or heavy fabrics that require extra care in handling.

Slide-on-table for more space

• Optimizes view onto the sewing project
• More room for your creativity
• Easy to attach and remove

The Slide-on Table extends the sewing area to the left of the needle. It allows large fabrics to be guided more easily and gives a better overview onto the sewing project.

Micro Thread Control (mtc)

• Finishes edges up to 9mm width
• For professional seams
• Fine-tune the over-edge threads

The patended mtc Micro Thread Control saves you significant time and effort while ensuring consistent high-quality stitches, since you need only set thread tension once – even if you alter the cutting width and fabric thickness!
