RAISE OR LOWER THE FEED DOGS
Sliding the lever to the " 
" (b) will lower the feed dog, for example during button sewing. If
you wish to continue sewing normally, slide the
lever to the " 
" (a) in order to raise the feed dogs.
|
| The feed dogs will not raise up if you do not | |
|
| turn the handwheel, even if the lever is slid to | |
| |||
|
| ||
|
| the right. Make a complete turn (one full | |
|
|
| |
|
|
| revolution of the handwheel) to raise the feed |
|
|
| dogs. |
