ALDI Stirling Black Edition MD 17329 Instruction Manual page 24

Raising and lowering the presser foot
Raise or lower the presser foot lever in order to move the presser foot
up or down.
Position 1: The presser foot presses the fabric onto the feeders and
the thread tension is activated.
You can start sewing.
Position 2: The presser foot is in the top position and the thread
tension is deactivated.
You can take the fabric out of the machine, put it in the machine, or
change the presser foot.
The presser foot can be raised up to position 3 in order to provide
extra room when sewing thick fabrics.
Reverse stitching
Use reverse stitches to reinforce the first and last stitches.
− Press the reverse lever and hold it down.
− Press the foot pedal – the more pressure you apply to the foot
pedal, the faster the machine will run.
− When you want to change back to forward stitching, simply release
the reverse lever.
Removing fabric from the sewing machine
When you finish sewing, make sure that the needle is at its highest
position.
− To remove the fabric, raise the presser foot and pull the fabric away
from you out of the machine.
Changing the sewing direction
Proceed as follows to change direction when you reach the corners of
the material:
− Stop the machine and turn the hand wheel towards you until the
needle is in the fabric.
− Raise the presser foot.
− Pivot the fabric around the needle to change the direction as
desired.
− Lower the presser foot again and continue sewing.
Cutting the thread
Cut the thread with the thread cutter
machine or with a pair of scissors. Leave around 15 cm of the thread
hanging from the eye of the needle.
