Sewing on heavy fabric

Cardboard or thick fabric

The black button on the right side of the presser foot will lock the presser foot in a horizontal position if you push it in before lowering the presser foot. This ensures even feeding at the beginning of a seam and helps when sewing multiple layers of fabric such as sewing over seams when hemming jeans.

When you reach the point of an increased thickness, lower the needle and raise the presser foot. Press the toe of the foot and push in the black button, then lower the foot and continue sewing.

The black button releases automatically after sewing few stitches.

You also can place another piece of fabric with the same thickness at the back of the seam. Or support the presser foot while feeding by hand and sewing toward the folded side.

C10, C20 specifications

Husqvarna, a leading brand in outdoor power equipment, has made significant strides in the chainsaw market with the introduction of the C20 and C10 models. These chainsaws are designed for both professional users and enthusiasts, offering a blend of power, efficiency, and innovative features tailored to meet various cutting needs.

The Husqvarna C20 chainsaw stands out with its robust 20-inch bar, making it ideal for felling larger trees and cutting firewood. It is powered by a reliable 50cc engine that delivers impressive torque, allowing for faster cutting speeds and reduced fatigue during extended use. The C20 is equipped with Husqvarna's X-Torq engine technology, which reduces fuel consumption and harmful emissions without compromising performance. This feature not only helps the environment but also provides users with longer running times between fuel refills.

Additionally, the C20 incorporates an easy start system that minimizes pull resistance on the starter cord, making it accessible to users of all skill levels. The air purge function ensures the carburetor remains primed, further enhancing starting efficiency. For safety, the chainsaw includes a chain brake that activates in case of kickback, protecting the user from potential injuries.

On the other hand, the Husqvarna C10 is designed for lighter-duty tasks, featuring a 16-inch bar and a slightly smaller engine. This model excels in ease of handling, making it a perfect choice for homeowners and those new to chainsaw operation. The C10 incorporates many of the same technologies as its big brother, including the X-Torq engine, ensuring that it is both efficient and environmentally friendly.

Both models come equipped with adjustable oil pumps, allowing users to customize the oil flow to the chain based on their specific cutting conditions. This feature not only prolongs bar and chain life but also enhances cutting performance. Furthermore, the ergonomic design of the handles contributes to comfortable operation during prolonged use, reducing strain on the user's hands and arms.

In summary, the Husqvarna C20 and C10 chainsaws bring powerful performance, innovative technology, and user-friendly features to the market. Whether you need a heavy-duty tool for professional tasks or a lighter chainsaw for home use, Husqvarna combines efficiency and safety to deliver reliable equipment that stands the test of time.
