How to Drop the Feed Dog

techniques: free motion embroidery, button sewing, etc.

be
up
for

sewing.

the
feed
dog
lever
on
the
back
of
the
free
arm.

the
lever
either

the

Additional Presser Foot Clearance
You can raise the presser foot about 6.5 mm (1/4”) higher
than
the
normal
up
position
for
easy
removal
of
the
presser
foot or to help you place heavy fabrics under the presser
foot. Pull up the presser foot lever beyond the normal up
position.
