LOWER/RAISE THE FEED TEETH
The feed teeth control the movement of the fabric when
sewing. They should be raised for all general sewing
and lowered for darning, freehand embroidery and
monogramming so that you, not the feed teeth, are moving
the fabric.
The feed teeth also have to be lowered when embroidering.
USING THE FREE ARM
Your machine can be used either as a Á at-bed or as a free-
arm model.
With the accessory box (extension table) in position, it
provides a large working surface as a standard Á at-bed
model.
To remove the accessory box, hold it À rmly with both
hands and pull it off to the left as shown. To replace, slide
the extension table back into place until it clicks.
With the accessory box removed the machine has a slim
free-arm used for children’s clothes, cuffs, trouser legs, and
when sewing in other hard-to-reach places.
PRESSER FOOT LIFTER
There are three positions for your presser foot.
1. Lower the presser foot to sew.
2. Raise the lifter to the middle position to insert or remove
fabric.
3. Lift it to its highest position to change the presser foot
or to remove thick fabric.
