I have a Brothers also and the manual stinks. Hopefully, there is a way to get a space and someone on the "board" can help you. Have always loved the Brother's products, but not so much any more. I am taking my Pfaff in to the dealer for service. Hopefully, they can fix my stitch timing so that I can FMQ. If not, I guess I am in for a spendy shopping day. Good Luck
