Please Note: Always try to sew first without the walking foot accessory which should be used only when necessary.
It is easier to guide the fabric and you have a better view of the seam when using the standard, regular foot on your machine. Your sewing machine offers excellent stitch quality on a wide range of fabrics from delicate chiffons to multiple layers of denim.
The Walking foot attachment equalizes the feeding of the fabric layers. It improves the matching of plaids, stripes and patterns. It also helps to prevent uneven feeding of difficult or napped fabrics, such as velvet or corduroy.
11 Lift the presser foot lifter to raise the presser foot bar.
22 Remove the presser foot holder by unscrewing (counterclockwise) the presser bar attaching screw.
33 Attach the Walking foot to the machine as follows:
-The arm (a) should fit into above the needle screw and clamp (b).
-Slide the attaching head (c) from left to right, so that it is fitted onto the presser foot bar.
-Lower the presser foot bar.
-Replace and tighten (clockwise) the presser bar attaching screw.
-Make sure both the needle screw and the presser bar attaching screw are tightly secured.
