TWO-STEP PRESSER FOOT LIFTER

The presser foot lifter raises and lowers the presser foot.

When sewing several layers or thick fabrics, the presser foot can be raised a second stage for easy positioning of the work.

ADJUSTING PRESSER FOOT PRESSURE

The presser foot pressure of the machine has been pre-set and requires no particular readjustment according to the type of fabric (light-or-heavy weight).

However, if you need to adjust the presser foot pressure, turn the presser adjusting screw with a coin.

For sewing very heavy fabric, loosen the pressure by turning the screw counter clockwise, and for thin fabric, tighten by turning it clockwise.
