Pressure Dial
REGULATING PRESSURE
The pressure dial regulates the pressure that
the presser foot exerts on the fabric. The NORM
(normal) setting can be used for sewing a wide
variety of fabrics of different weight and texture.
Intermediate settings, above and below NORM,
are also provided. Generally lighter than normal
pressure is best for thick, soft fabrics. See
page 45 for adjusting pressure when sewing
knits.
Lower the presser foot before setting pressure.
• To increase pressure, turn dial from NORM
toward MAX.
• To decrease pressure, turn dial from NORM
toward DARN.
•
• For darning, set dial on DARN.
