Setting the foot pressure

Regulate the foot pressure by means of screwdriver (1), which is
supplied with the machine accessories.
Proper setting
The foot pressure should be as small as possible, but strong
enough so that the feeding is reliable even at a high sewing speed.
The sewing material does not slip and is correctly transported.
The correct pressure depends on the sewing material:
• Lower pressure for soft materials, e.g. cloth
• Higher pressure for harder materials, e.g. leather
Disturbance from incorrectly set foot pressure:
• Excessively high pressure: Tearing of the sewing material
• Excessively low pressure: Slipping of the sewing material
