The zipper foot is used to sew various types of zippers and can easily be positioned to the right or left side of the needle.
When sewing the right side of the zipper, attach the shank to the left pin of the zipper foot. When sewing the left side of the zipper, attach the shank to the right pin of the zipper foot. (See fig. A)
1.Set the Pattern Selection Dial to Straight Stitch (Center Needle Position). Set the Stitch Length between 2 and 3.
2.Lower the presser foot lever and fix either the left or right pin of the zipper foot onto the shank.
3.Fold the edge of the material 2 cm (3/4") and place the zipper under the folded portion.
4.Lower the needle into the notch located either on the left or right side of the zipper foot.
CAUTION
Turn the balance wheel to make sure the needle does not strike the presser foot. If another stitch is selected, the needle will strike the presser foot, causing the needle to break, possibly leading to injury.
5.Sew from the bottom of the zipper toward the top on both sides. The needle should be positioned on the zipper side of the foot for best results. (See fig. B)
6.To sew the opposite side of the zipper, release the foot by pressing the button located at the back of the presser foot, install the zipper foot on the other side of the zipper and continue sewing using the other side notch.
