Raising and Lowering the Presser Foot
The presser foot lifter raises and lowers the presser foot.
You can raise the presser foot about 6 mm (1/4") higher
than the normal up position by exerting more pressure
when lifting the presser foot lifter. This allows for easy
removal of the presser foot and helps you to place thick
fabrics under it.
1 Presser Foot Lifter
2 Presser Foot
3 Up Position
4 Extra Lift
NOTE:
If you start the machine with the presser foot up, the
LCD screen will advise you to lower the foot.
Lower the foot then restart the machine.
Attaching the Knee Lifter
The Knee Lifter is extremely helpful when sewing
applique, patchwork and quilting since it allows you to
handle the fabric while your knee controls the presser
foot.
Match the ribs on the knee lifter with the notches in the
knee lifter socket and insert the knee lifter.
1 Knee Lifter
2 Ribs
3 Notches
Push the knee lifter with your knee to raise and lower
the presser foot.
NOTE:
Do not touch the knee lifter while sewing, otherwise the
fabric will not be fed smoothly.
