PRESSER FEET
To change the various presser feet,
raise the presser bar to its highest
position by lifting the presser foot
lever. Loosen the presser foot thumb
screw, choose the proper foot, insert
from the front.
Tighten the screw using the large
screw driver to make certain the foot
is secure.
To aid you in the placement of heavy
fabrics under the presserfoot, the lever
can raise the foot beyond the normal
"'up" position. This is also an aid in
changing your presser feet.
