Machine Manual

The BERNINA 475 Quilter's Edition, hailed as the quilter's new best friend, is a user-friendly sewing machine packed with features designed to cater specifically to quilters. The machine sports an easy-to-use 4.3" color touch screen and a jumbo bobbin that holds 70% more thread, allowing for fewer interruptions during your sewing projects. It also has an adjustable presser foot pressure feature, capable of accommodating a variety of material types. You can effortlessly increase the pressure for thin materials or reduce it for thicker ones, ensuring optimal sewing results each time. Time-saving features like the automatic thread cutter and no more manual threading enhance your creativity by cutting the threads automatically and lifting the needle, freeing your hands for more sewing.

The BERNINA 475 emphasizes user comfort with its Free Hand System that simultaneously raises or lowers the presser foot and feed dog, leaving your hands free to guide the fabric. This hands-free sewing allows you to easily tackle larger projects. For achieving perfect stitches, the machine comes equipped with the BERNINA Hook, ensuring precision with each stitch, and a 5.5 mm stitch width for versatility. The front-loading jumbo bobbin allows you to sew even longer without interruption and the machine operates at impressive speeds of up to 900 stitches per minute. It includes the Patchwork Foot #37, designed specifically for straight-stitching and ideal for sewing ¼" seam allowances, perfect for piecing patchwork blocks with utmost precision. For a smooth sewing experience, the machine offers an easily navigable color touch screen and on-screen support from the Sewing Consultant for quick and easy adjustments.
