Using The Presser Foot Lifting Lever; Removing/Attaching The Presser Foot - Brother 884-B20 Owner's Manual

Using the presser foot lifting lever

For sewing (normal use), set the lever to the <A>
position.
To raise the presser foot, raise the presser foot
lifting lever to the <B> position.
Since raising the presser foot lifting lever opens
the tension discs beside the thread tension dials,
use this position for threading the machine.
To increase the space between the presser foot
and the needle plate, for example, when replacing
the presser foot or sewing thick fabric, move the
presser foot lifting lever further to the <C> position.
When releasing the presser foot lifting lever from
the <C> position, it returns to the <B> position.

Removing/Attaching the presser foot

1. Turn off the main power and light switch.
2. Raise the presser foot lifting lever 1 .
3. Turn the handwheel 2 so that the mark on
the handwheel is aligned to the line on the
machine. (See "CHAPTER 1 Turning direction
of the handwheel".)
Removing the presser foot
Push the button on the presser foot holder 3 and
the presser foot will be released.
Raise the presser foot farther by pushing the
presser foot lifting lever upward. Then remove the
presser foot and store it in a safe location.
Attaching the presser foot
Place the presser foot just under the presser foot
holder <A> so that the groove in the bottom of the
presser foot holder <B> is aligned and catches the
bar on the top of the presser foot <C>. Then lower
the presser foot lifting lever to attatch the presser
foot 4 , pushing the button on the presser holder 5 .
