How do I remove or attach the presser foot ?

  • Before replacing the presser foot, be sure to turn off the sewing machine, otherwise injuries may occur if the foot controller or the start/stop button is accidentally pressed and the machine starts sewing.
  • Use the presser foot appropriate for the type of stitch that you wish to sew, otherwise the needle may hit the presser foot, causing the needle to bend or break.

  • Only use presser feet designed specifically for this machine. Use of any other presser foot may result in injuries or damage to the machine.

 

  1. Press image  (needle position button) once or twice to raise the needle.
