Futura™ Model CE-250

 

Features and Benefits

 

General Features:

 

 

NEW:

Three Stay-Bright™ LED Lights

Three lights over the sewing area address a feature asked

for by consumers - better lighting! With lights on each side

of the needle area as well as one light over the large surface

to the right of the needle, it is easier to see your work.

An illuminated sewing area makes all your sewing more

precise. Sewing is also more pleasurable because the well

lighted sewing area reduces eye-stain often caused by

working in low lighting

 

 

Automatic Needle Threader

 

Effortless threading of the machine, including automatic

threading of the eye of the needle!

 

Automatic Tension This system ensures stable stitch quality,

whatever the type of fabric being used.

 

Top Loading Jam-Proof

 

Bobbin System with Clear Cover

This mechanism incorporates a rotating hook that ensures

smooth, quiet jam-proof sewing. The bobbin loads from the

top so it is easy to insert the bobbin. The clear cover

makes it effortless to monitor the bobbin thread supply.

 

Optimum Power Control The Optimum Power Control provides precise piercing power when sewing multiple layers or dense fabric. The piercing power is the same regardless of sewing speed.

 

Drop Feed A conveniently located lever will lower the feed dogs for

free-motion embroidery, machine embroidery, monograms and attaching buttons.

 

Extra-High Presser Foot Lifter There are two heights to the presser foot lifter. The second height offers a ¼” more clearance which is needed when placing multiple layers or bulky fabrics under the presser foot.

 

Vertical Spool Holder In addition to the machine’s horizontal thread delivery, a second vertical spool holder is provided at the back of the machine, specially designed for many of today’s threads.

 

Self-Lubricating Because the machine is permanently lubricated,

there is no need to oil the machine, and no oil gets on fabric.

 

Warning Signals Audible warning messages alert the sewer, ensuring trouble-free sewing.

 

Aluminum Frame The internal skeleton of the sewing machine. This rigid

support holds all the mechanisms in perfect alignment for perfect, skip-free sewing.

 

NEW: Redesigned Accessory Tray

The machine’s accessories are stored in the Removable

Extension table. The covers for the accessory compartments

have been redesigned as hinged covers, rather than

removable lids. The covers are more secure and won’t be misplaced.

 

Warranty Futura has a 25 year limited warranty, including 5 years on

electronic components and 1 year on adjustments.

 

Consumer’s Choice More sewers own SINGER® sewing machines than all

other brands combined.* (* Source: Market Facts, March 2002)

 

Sewing Machine Features:

 

Electronic Sewing Machine Sewing machine has push button stitch selection. This means that the optimal settings for length and width are automatically set when choosing a stitch. They can be

overridden to personalize length and width choice.

 

100 Built-In Stitch Programs

 

A large variety of stitches for construction, decorative

sewing, heirloom sewing and quilting always ensures the

perfect stitch for every project.

 

Built-In Stretch Stitches Specially designed stitches that add strength and flexibility to seams, especially useful when sewing on knitwear.

 

Basting Capability Quickly piece projects together.

 

Built-In Quilting Stitch Create a hand-sewn quilted look with this unique stitch.

 

NEW: Twin Needle Function

Automatically reduces the stitch width on decorative

patterns to prevent needle breakage when sewing with a

twin needle.

 

Built-In Heirloom-Friendly Stitch Selection

 

Pin Stitch, Blanket Stitch, and Entredeux are a few of the

popular heirloom stitches available.

 

7mm Stitch Width Most stitches can be set for a maximum width of 7mm.

 

When sewing decorative stitches or satin stitches,

the wide stitches are bolder and more pronounced.

 

 

One-Step Built-In Buttonholes Choose from 4 different one-step buttonholes. Buttonhole sewing is a one-step simple process that provides reliable results because the sides of the buttonhole sew the same

direction to prevent gaps in stitching or fabric distortion.

 

 

NEW: Exclusive Buttonhole Underplate

This is a SINGER® developed system that sandwiches fabric

between a lower plate and the foot, to ensure perfect

buttonholes on multiple layers of fabric. Effectively, this is

like a mini-embroidery hoop in which the machine feeds

the attachment, rather than the fabric. It makes creating

buttonholes possible in places that conventional buttonhole

devices cannot easily reach.

 

 

NEW: Programmable Needle Up and Down

Select whether the needle is in up or down position when

the machine stops. It is beneficial to have the needle stop

in the down position when appliquéing, quilting or pivoting

fabric. When removing fabric or picking the bobbin thread

up, program the needle to raise to the highest position.

 

 

13 Needle Positions Needle position can be changed for individual projects, such as inserting zippers or cording and topstitching.
