PREPARATION FOR SEWING

The power cord and foot control are one unit.

Insert the three-prong plug into the machine [Fig. 1]. Insert the power supply plug into a wall outlet. Turn the power switch to “on” [Fig.1].

Raise the left retractable thread spool pin for most sewing [Fig. 2]. Raise both the left and right retractable thread spool pins for twin needle or dual thread sewing.

ACCESSORY STORAGE

Accessories and presser feet are conveniently stored in the free-arm cover.

Grasp the free-arm cover with your left hand and gently pull up and toward you to open the storage tray [Fig.3].

CHANGING PRESSER FEET

Your Simplicity sewing machine comes with both snap- on and screw-on presser feet. They're easy to change and each foot helps make a specific sewing task easier.

Removing and Attaching Snap-on Presser Feet

1.Turn the handwheel toward you [Fig. 4] to bring the needle to its highest position.

2.Raise the presser foot lever [Fig. 5].

3.Release the foot by pushing the presser foot release lever located behind the presser foot holder [Fig. 6].

4.Place the desired foot on the needle plate, aligning the metal bar on the presser foot with the groove of the presser foot holder [Fig. 7].

5.Lower the presser foot lever to snap the foot in place.

Removing and Attaching Screw-on Presser Feet

1.Loosen the thumb screw located on the left side of the presser foot on the presser foot bar [Fig. 8]. You may need to use the screwdriver. It is not necessary to remove the screw completely.

2.Remove the presser foot holder and foot [Fig. 9].

3.Attach the desired screw-on presser foot onto the presser bar.

4.Tighten the thumb screw with the screwdriver to hold the presser foot securely in place [Fig. 10].

Note: After attaching a presser foot, select the desired stitch and turn the hand-wheel toward you several times to make sure the needle clears the opening in the foot. Some presser feet require a straight or narrow width stitch only.
