ADJUSTING THE PRESSER FOOT
10-1 Presser foot pressure
The presser foot pressure should be as light as
possible, yet be sufficient to feed the fabric and
produce uniform stitches.
To increase the presser foot pressure, turn the
adjusting knob clockwise (see the illustration).
10-2 Position of the presser foot and foot lift
Fit the presser foot properly onto the presser bar.
Make sure the needle is centered left to right in the
needle drop hole on the presser foot when the needle
is descending. Adjustment is made by loosening
screw A. There should be a clearance of 0.5mm on
both sides as shown in the illustration.
Adjustment is made by loosening nuts B (on
FX4406-FX4412).

Foot lift
Position stopper C with the presser foot
approximately 10mm above the top surface of the
needle plate and then tighten nut D.
