Changing the Presser Foot
START SEWING
Before changing the presser foot, raise the presser foot lifter.
The presser foot holder (b) is attached to the presser bar (a). The presser foot (e) has a presser foot
pin (d) that connects to the presser foot holder, sometimes called a shank (b). The shank has a groove
(c) on its underside, which connects it to the presser foot.
To remove a presser foot from the shank, press the lever (f) at the back of the shank. The foot will
release. To attach a presser foot, line up the presser foot pin (d) underneath the groove (c) on the
shank (b). Lower the presser foot lifter, bringing the shank’s groove down over the pin. The foot will
snap on.
Some optional presser feet require you to remove the shank from the machine. To remove the shank
from the machine (see above) loosen and remove the screw that holds the presser foot onto the
presser bar (g), then remove the shank (h). To replace the shank, set the shank onto the presser bar,
then replace the screw.
