Pressing level of the presser foot can minutely be lifted in accordance with materials. It is suitable for sewing of stretch materials and raised fabrics, preventing stitch slippage and damage to the fabrics.

Trouble-free hook shaft offset mechanism

This mechanism prevents skipped stitches and thread breakages which tend to occur at the needle’s right zigzag position. It also makes needle and rotary hook timing adjustment easier and improves the maintenance operation. Damage of the rotary hook tip by the needle guard can be prevented as well.
