ZIPPER INSERTION
How the zipper is inserted will depend on the
type of the garment and the location of the
zipper. With the adjustable zipper foot, you
will find it easy to sew an even line of stitch­
ing close to the zipper.
The zipper foot can be used either to the left
or right of the needle, depending on where
the bulk of the garment is placed.
