Side Loading Industrial Rotary Hook
Consistent stitching with industrial quality.
Knee Lift
The knee lift lets you raise and lower the presser foot without taking your hands off your work. Quilters love this feature.
Liquid Response Speed Control
Press the unique “Liquid Response” foot pedal and the machine gradually accelerates to your optimum sewing speed. At slower speeds the foot control gives you outstanding accuracy: Press it to sew a single stitch.
Convenient Features
You don’t have to give up convenient features just because you want to sew fast and with more power. The 1600P machines have the convenient features you expect on a home machine with the easy to use controls you won’t find on most industrial models.
Memorized Needle Up/Down
The exclusive Up/Down needle button lets you control the needle’s position at the end of the stitch. Set it “up” for when you want to move your fabric
