7-6
1) Relationship between Presser Foot and Needle/
Embroidery Material
For stable stitching, the presser foot must be pressing
the embroidery material before the needle pierces into
the material. The same is true for when the needle
comes out of the material.
7-5) ADJUSTING HEIGHT OF PRESSER FOOT
2) When the Presser Foot is Too High
Needle In
[Fig.7-13] shows the presser foot fails to press the work material when the needle pierces into the fabric,
causing an unstable needlework.
Needle Out
[Fig.7-14] shows the presser foot fails to press the work material when the needle comes out of the fabric. The
embroidery material is lifted up along with the needle, making a gap between the fabric and the needle plate.
This may cause thread breaks, skipped stitches, or unstable stitching.

3) Adjusting the Height of the Presser Foot
Check the relationship between the presser foot and the
needle/embroidery material. Turn the main shaft lever
to position the needle at the lowest point (178°).
Remove the head cover and unfasten the screws on the
presser foot so it moves up and down ([Fig.7-15]).
Place a 1mm-thick gauge on the needle plat and lightly
press the presser foot. Fasten the screws snugly when
the presser foot touches the gauge.
