Confirm that the current machine's model plate carries a P suffix before publishing the short-thread-trimmer claims below.\n- The current Direct Sewing specification—5mm maximum stitch length, DB x 1 needles and up to 5,000 sti\/min—identifies the medium-material configuration, not the 7mm\/4,000 sti\/min heavy-material version.\n- Regional submodel codes have changed over time (-403P, -503P, -703P and others). Do not hard-code a regional suffix unless it is confirmed from the current stock unit.\n- This is a single-needle, bottom-feed, straight-lockstitch machine. It does not zigzag, overlock, make buttonholes or provide needle\/compound feed.\n- Automatic thread trimming and programmable automatic reverse\/backtacking are included. Automatic presser-foot lift is not claimed because the current Direct Sewing listing does not identify it as fitted.\n- NEXIO production-management connectivity requires the applicable Brother system\/module and infrastructure; compatibility does not mean the network equipment is included.\n- Customer-facing package wording reflects the current Direct Sewing page: table, stand, direct-drive motor, thread stand, accessories and wheels. Confirm the current assembly, plug, included quantities and freight arrangement before publishing.\n- No price, finance, stock promise, hard-coded street address or fixed warranty term is included
