SELECTION OF PRESSER FOOT
For most ordinary sewing the original all-purpose foot can be used. However, the
following feet in your accessory box are recommended for special purposes.
Straight Stitch Foot
This has only a narrow hole to accommo
date only straight stitching. It may be
used on sheer or soft fabrics for more
control. When using this foot, the Stitch
Width Control should be at 0 to avoid
hitting the foot and breaking the needle.
Buttonhole Foot
This foot has a groove underneath, to
allow the narrow satin stitch or button
hole to form evenly. However, if skip-
stitch occurs on sheer fabrics with this
foot, it may be necessary to use thin
paper underneath.
Cording or Zipper Foot, and Button Foot
Use for sewing very close to the edge of a
cord or zipper, and sewing on buttons
respectively.
CHANGING FOOT
Use the large screwdriver to loosen thumb
screw. Turn the screw backward until the
foot becomes loose. Then, lift up on
presser foot lever until it is in its highest
position in order to remove the foot.
Replace with desired foot and tighten
thumb screw securely.
