ADJUSTING PRESSURE AND FEEDING OF FABRIC

GENERAL SEWING. Usually for straight sewing and various embroidery work, the pressure

bar cap or darning release, Fig. 18, is at its lowest position and the feed at its highest level-with
the drop feed button marked UP pressed all the way down. Fig. 17.

SEWING THIN OR LIGHT WEIGHT FABRICS

When lighter pressure is required to sew satisfactorily on thin

silk or flimsy material, the pressure cap should be about halfway
down. Release all the way by pressing the snap lock. A, Fig.

19, and then press cap B down again to half-way spot. Lower

the feed slightly by pressing the DOWN button (Fig. 17) to the

red line.
