Drawing Up Lower Thread
Hold end of upper thread with left hand.
Turn handwheel slowly towards you until needle moves down and up again.
Pull upper thread slowly and lower thread will be brought up in a loop.
Pull out both threads to about 1 5 cm (6”) and place them together under presser foot on left.
Foot Pressure
Push down the outer ring of the pressure regulator. This will re lease the pressure on the presser foot. To increase the pressure, push down inner pin until suitable pressure is obtained.
Insufficient pressure may cause poor feeding of the fabric, skipped stitches, or difficulty in guiding the fabric. If feed dogs or presser foot marks appear on the fabric, reduce the pressure.
When sewing multiple thickness or heavy fabric, reduce the pressure. Increase pressure when sewing lighter weight fabrics.
