Using the optional walking
foot

With the walking foot, both pieces of fabric are fed
evenly by the feed dogs and the teeth on the presser
foot. This is useful when sewing fabrics that are hard
to feed such as vinyl and leather and when sewing
fabrics that easily slip such as velvets or when
quilting.
Use the screwdriver to attach the walking foot.

Attaching the walking foot

Remove the presser foot holder.
• For details, refer to “Removing the presser

foot holder” (at the left).

Hook the connecting fork of the walking foot
onto the needle clamp screw.
