Changing the Needle
Press the ON/OFF switch to “O”.
1. Loosen the needle screw with the screwdriver.
2. Remove the needle.
3. Push the new needle upwards with the flat side away
from you until it will go no further.
4. Tighten the needle screw with the screwdriver.
Presser Foot Pressure
The presser foot pressure has been pre-set to the standard
value ”N”. In most cases, you do not need to adjust the
presser foot pressure. For specialty techniques, or when
sewing on very light or heavy fabric, adjusting the pressure
can improve the result. For very light fabrics, turn the dial to
a lower number. For heavy fabric, turn the dial to a higher
number.
Presser Foot Lift
A
B
The presser foot is lowered or raised with the presser foot lift
(A). If you are sewing on heavy fabric or several layers of
fabric, the presser foot can be raised higher (B) to make it
easier to place the fabric underneath the presser foot.
Note: The machine will not start when the presser foot is raised (except
for bobbin winding).
Changing the Presser Foot
Press the ON/OFF switch to “O”.
1. Make sure that the presser foot is raised and the needle is
in its highest position. Pull the presser foot towards you.
2. Line up the cross pin on the foot with the gap in the
presser foot ankle. Push back until the foot snaps into
place.
