Pfaff 260 User Manual

Depending on the type of work the machine is intended to perform, it can be
suppli ed not only with an ordinary feed dog, but also with feed dogs featur-
ing a coarse or flne tooth cut.
Dropping the Feed Dog
The feed dog is dropped for darning, embroidering and button sewing. To
lower the feed
dog (F ig. 21), turn drop feed control V clockwise (Fig. 22). The
fabric will cease feeding. When the control is flicked back to its normal posi-
tion, the feed dog wi ll show a full too th above the needle plate as it advances
(Fig. 1 9), thus automatically resuming the feeding of the fabric.

one from 0 to l, and the other from l to 4. This feature greatly facilitates the
fine regulation of the sti1ch length for satin stitching. The dial can also be
set to any intermedi ate length between the graduation marks.
