 Free-motion options (16)
All stitches on your machine can be sewn in free-
motion to create fantastic effects. 
Touch the free-motion options icon (16) to open 
a window where you can select between three 
different free-motion options. A free-motion foot 
symbol at the top of the screen (A) indicates which 
setting is selected. Use  Quick help (29) on the 
symbol for information about the current setting.
For all free-motion sewing the feed dogs will 
lower automatically and the fabric must be moved 
manually.
Note: Make sure that the  *%5system is disengaged.

 Dynamic spring foot free-motion (16a)
Activate to set the machine in Dynamic spring foot 
free-motion mode for the  Dynamic spring foot 6D 
(optional accessory, part number 820991-096). The 
Dynamic spring foot measures the fabric thickness 
and will raise and lower with each stitch to hold the 
fabric on the needle plate while the stitch is being 
formed.
Note: The Dynamic spring foot 6D is recommended for 
use with straight stitch. Activate  Stitch width safety in 
Machine settings.
 Spring foot free-motion (16b)
Activate to set the machine in Spring foot free-
motion mode for  optional spring feet. A spring foot 
will raise and lower with each stitch to hold the 
fabric on the needle plate while the stitch is being 
formed.
Note: Optional spring feet can be purchased at your local 
authorized PFAFF® dealer. 
Do not use a spring foot if Sensormatic free-motion is 
activated, since the needle might damage the presser foot.
