Raising and Lowering the Presser Foot
The presser foot lifter raises and lowers the presser
foot.
You can raise the presser foot about 1/4” (0.7 cm)
higher than the locked up position. The lifter will not
stay locked at this higher setting. The extra area helps
when putting different presser feet on and putting bulky
fabrics under the presser foot.
1 Presser foot lifter
2 Presser foot
3 Up position
4 Extra lift
NOTE
If you start to sew with the presser foot up, the machine
will beep and the LCD screen will advise you to lower
the presser foot.
Attaching the Knee Lifter
The knee lifter is very helpful when quilting, sewing
appliques, or when working with larger projects
because it allows you to keep both hands on the fabric
while your knee controls the presser foot.
Match the ribs on the knee lifter with the notches in the
machine socket and insert the knee lifter.
1 Knee lifter
2 Ribs
3 Machine socket notches
Push the knee lifter with your knee to raise and lower
the presser foot.
NOTE
Keep leg away from lifter while sewing. Pressing on
knee lift while sewing will effect feeding of fabric and
the thread tension.
