Sewing with the Dual Feed Device
Patterns U1 to U5 and Q1 to Q7 can be sewn with the
dual feed device.
The dual feed device is extremely effective when sewing
hard to feed materials such as PVC coated fabric or
leather.
It also eliminates layer slippage.
Refer to page 32 for how to attach the dual feed foot and
to engage the dual feed device.
Press the dual feed key and select the desired pattern.
(1) Dual feed key
Dual feed balancing dial
The dual feed balancing dial should be set at “0”,
however you may need to adjust the dual feed balance
depending on the type of fabric.
Check the feed balance by test sewing on an extra piece
of the fabric you intend to use.
(A) : If the lower layer puckers, turn the dual feed
balancing dial toward “+”.
(B) : If the upper layer puckers, turn the dual feed
balancing dial toward “–”.

(2) Lower layer

When seaming plaid fabrics, match the plaids of the
upper and lower layers and pin them together.
Remove the pins as you sew.
