I used google to search for ‘Husqvarna designer SE service manual’ and scribd had it. I signed up for a free trial and downloaded it. I didn’t see the manual for the Epic, but you might be able to find it on another site. I saw some instructions on ehow. You could also try the Huskvarva Facebook group. If you want to take the chance, you can try the Designer SE instructions at your own risk.

Well I searched for code 4021 for Pfaff sewing machines. I got a video explaining what can be done and undone using the code. It isn't that scary but it's best to know before changing anything.

Good question
I haven't seen this feature on any of my Brothers machines.

I would be more concerned if you are considering buying one, if parts including the computer parts can be found as the SE is no longer being made. When you buy a used computerized machine, those parts are only made for a period of time, then become harder to find. The machines can still be functioning well, and you are taking a bet that they will for a period of time when you purchase them used. If you can, I would check with a viking service tech on how readily parts would be available.

I can understand - sort of - wanting to know the hours on a machine - but isn't it a useless piece of information? How are the hours computed? If it's the total number of hours the machine has been turned on, then mine would be elevated by the times I leave the machine on while I'm doing something else, sometimes (accidentally) overnight. I wonder if those hours subtract from the machine's life. I think the needle up/down count is slightly more useful if you're planning to buy a used machine, though I would not be discouraged from buying a well maintained machine with a high count. But now I'm wondering how many hours are on my vintage machines. (And it's impossible to know!)
