F. THREAD CUTTER BUTTON

Press this button after sewing to cut the upper and bobbin threads.

The machine will cut both threads automatically.

CAUTION

1.Do not press this button when there is no fabric in the machine or no need to cut the threads. The thread may tangle, resulting in damage.

2.Do not use this button when cutting thread thicker than #30, nylon thread or other speciality threads.

In this case, use the thread cutter (H).

G.DROP FEED LEVER

The fabric feed dogs project up through the needle plate, directly below the presser foot. Their function is to move the fabric being sewn. The drop feed lever controls the fabric feed dogs.

For ordinary sewing, move the lever to the right. This raises feed dogs to their highest position. For most sewing, the lever should be in this position. For darning or free motion embroidery or whenever fabric is to be moved by hand, move the lever to the left to lower the fabric feed dogs.

Use this cutter if the thread cutter button is not used.

1.Raise the presser foot and bring fabric and threads backward after sewing.

2.Hook the threads to the thread cutter from back to front.
