Adjusting the presser foot pressure

The factory-set standard presser foot pressure can be used for all common sewing works. When working
with jersey fabrics or with loose knitware, reduce the presser foot pressure. For firm materials, increase the
presser foot pressure.
The presser foot pressure is designed to adjust the pressure of the presser foot optimally to the fabric
thickness. When working with thick fabrics, it is recommended to reduce the presser foot pressure. This
provides the advantage that the presser foot is slightly lifted so that the fabric can be moved more easily.
When working with thin fabrics, it is recommended to increase the presser foot pressure. This provides
the advantage that the fabric cannot be moved too easily under the presser foot.
> Turn the knob to the right to reduce the pressure foot pressure.
> Turn the knob further to the right to raise the presser foot.
