Sewing hook-and-loop fastener tape
Make sure that the needle passes through the hook-and-
loop fastener tape by turning the handwheel and lower the
needle into the hook-and-loop fastener tape before
sewing. And then, sew the edge of the hook-and-loop
fastener tape at a slow speed.
If the needle does not pass through the hook-and-loop
fastener tape, replace the needle with the needle size for
thicker fabrics. For details, refer to “Fabric/Thread/Needle
Combinations” on page 27.
Hands-free raising and lifting of the presser
foot
Using the knee lifter, you can raise and lower the presser foot
with your knee, leaving both hands free to handle the fabric.
■
Installing the knee lifter
a
Turn off the machine.
b
Insert the knee lifter into the mounting slot on the front
of the machine in the lower-right corner.
Align the tabs on the knee lifter with the notches in the
mounting slot, and then insert the knee lifter as far as
possible.
■
Using the knee lifter
a
Stop the machine.
• Do not use the knee lifter while the machine is
operating.

With your knee, press the knee lifter to the right.
Keep the knee lifter pressed to the right.

CAUTION
• Use only the adhesive-free hook-and-loop
fastener tape which is designed for sewing.
When the glue adheres to the needle or the
bobbin case, it may cause malfunction.
• If the hook-and-loop fastener tape is sewn with
the thin needle (65/9-75/11), the needle may
bend or break.
Note
• Before sewing, baste together the fabric and the
hook-and-loop fastener tape.
