Using the Knee Lifter
Using the knee lifter, you can raise and lower the
presser foot with your knee, leaving both hands free
to handle the fabric.
a
Align the tabs on the knee lifter with the
notches in the jack, and then insert the knee
lifter as far as possible.
b
Use your knee to move the knee lifter to the
right in order to raise the presser foot. Release
the knee lifter to lower the presser foot.
Sewing Reinforcement Stitches
Generally stitching must be secured at the beginning
and end with reverse/reinforcement stitches. Press the
“Reverse/Reinforcement Stitch” button to sew reverse/
reinforcement stitches.
Depending on the selected stitch pattern, reverse or
reinforcement stitches are sewn while the “Reverse/
Reinforcement Stitch” button is kept pressed. With
reinforcement stitches, 3 to 5 stitches are sewn at the
same place. With reverse stitches, the stitching is sewn
at a low speed in the opposite direction.
In addition, this machine can be set to sew
reinforcement stitches (or reverse stitches)
automatically. For details, see “Automatic
Reinforcement Stitching” on page 46.
Sewing Curves
Sew slowly while keeping the seam parallel with the
fabric edge as you guide the fabric around the curve.
Changing Sewing Direction
Stop the machine with the needle in the fabric at the
point where you want to change the sewing direction,
and then raise the presser foot lever. Using the needle
as a pivot, turn the fabric, lower the presser foot lever,
and then continue sewing.
Sewing a Seam Allowance of 0.5 cm or Less
Baste the corner before sewing, and then, after
changing the sewing direction at the corner, pull the
basting thread toward the back while sewing.
a 0.5 cm (approx. 3/16 inch)
Note
If the knee lifter is not pushed into the mounting slot as
far as possible, it may come out during use.
Note
When the presser foot is in raised position, move the
knee lifter further to the right for the presser foot to
lower.
CAUTION
Be sure to keep your knee away from the knee lifter
during sewing. If the knee lifter is pushed during
machine operation, the needle may break or the
thread tension may loosen.
