The long arm flat bed allows up-to 508mm* (20") clearance to the right of the needle, which is approximately twice the length of a standard machine arm, and has a high under arm clearance of 145mm.

It features a powerful triple feeding action by way of: bottom feed, needle feed & walking foot top feed and is fitted with an extra large vertical axis hook for use with thick heavy duty sewing threads.

A high foot lift of up-to 28mm* allows many different types of heavy or bulky items to be stitched.

A safety clutch is fitted to help prevent damage to the hook, bevel gears and other important parts, should the machine become jammed or over-loaded.
