How To Drop the Feed Dog
The feed dog drops out of position for special sewing
techniques: free motion embroidery, button sewing,
etc.
The feed dog must always be up for regular sewing.
Locate the feed dog lever on the back of the free
arm. Slide the lever either to the right (down)
j
or to
the left (up)
k
. To bring up the feed dog, hand turn
the flywheel after sliding lever to the left.
Foot Pressure Dial
Set the pressure dial
j
at “3” for regular sewing.
Reduce the pressure to “2” for applique, cutwork,
drawn work, basting and embroidery.
Velours and knits with a lot of stretch may require a
“1” setting.
Attaching and Removing Presser Feet
Press the key until the needle is in the raised posi-
tion. Raise the presser foot and press the red button
j
on back of the shank. The presser foot will drop
off. Place the selected presser foot so the pin
l
on
the foot lies just under the groove
k
of the shank.
Lower the presser bar to attach the foot.
Attaching and Removing Shank
Turn the thumbscrew
j
counterclockwise with the
screwdriver to remove the shank.
To attach, match the hole in the shank
k
with the
hole in the presser bar
l
. Put thumbscrew in hole
and turn clockwise to tighten.
