There is a thread cutter located on the left side of your machine. At the
end of a seam, sew off the fabric edge and continue sewing to create a
5 ­ 6 inch(12 ­ 15cm) thread chain.
Bring the chain of thread up and back and pull forward into the thread
cutter.

The presser foot pressure has been preset at the factory and rarely
needs adjustment. You may find it necessary, however, to decrease
the pressure for thick fabrics or increase pressure for thin fabrics to
feed more smoothly under the foot. Use a coin to turn the screw on top
of the machine.
To increase pressure, turn the pressure adjusting screw clockwise.
To decrease pressure, turn the screw counter clockwise.

The Baby Lock has the convenience of a snap­on presser foot.

To Release:
1. Raise the presser foot lever. This will also lower the feed dogs out of

the way.

2. Raise the needles to the highest position.
3. Push the presser foot release lever located at the back of the presser

foot holder.

4. Slide the presser foot to the left of the needles.

To Replace:
1. Raise the presser foot lever.This will also lower the feed dogs out of

the way.

2. Raise the needles to the highest position.
3. Slide the foot from the left to right.
4. Align the bar to the foot with the groove in the holder.
5. Lower the presser foot lever to snap into place.
6. Turn the hand wheel counter clockwise to engage the feed dogs in

the up position.

The raised markings on the toe of the foot are seam line guides. They indicate the needle positions to
help guide your fabric for accurate seaming.
