CAUTION
• When using free motion quilting foot “C”, be sure to use
the straight stitch needle plate and sew with the needle
in middle (center) needle position. If the needle is moved
to any position other than the middle (center) needle
position, the needle may break, which may result in
injuries.
• Make sure that the free motion quilting foot “C”
is attached properly and not slanted.
CAUTION
• Be sure to securely tighten the screw with the included
multi-purpose screwdriver. Otherwise, the needle may
touch the quilting foot, causing it to break and causing
injury.
• Free motion open toe quilting foot “O” can also
be used with the straight stitch needle plate.
We recommend using free motion open toe
quilting foot “O” with free motion sewing of
fabrics of uneven thicknesses.
