The IDT (Integrated Dual Feed)
For sewing any fabric precisely Pfaff provides the ideal solution: the
Integrated Dual Feed, IDT system.
As on industrial machines, the IDT feeds the fabric from the top and
bottom at the same time at the same stitch length. The fabric is fed
precisely.
On light fabrics such as silk or rayon the dual feed prevents puckering
of the seam.
The even feeding action also ensures perfect matching of checked and
striped fabrics. The IDT keeps all layers of quilt projects aligned to
prevent stretching of the top layers.
Disengaging the IDT
Raise the presser foot. Hold the IDT with two fi ngers on either side
of the black ribbed elbow. Press the IDT down, then release it slowly
guiding it back and up away from you.
Engaging the IDT
Raise the presser foot. Press the IDT down until it engages.
Important: For all work with the Integrated Dual Feed IDT, use
presser feet with the center back cut-out.
