How To Drop the Feed Dog

The feed dog can be dropped out of position for
special sewing techniques: free motion embroidery,
stippling, button sewing, etc.
The feed dog must always be up for regular sewing.
The machine will run with the feed dog down if the
following stitches are selected: 1, 2, 3, 4, 011, 014,
015, 016, 017, 042, 061 and 062. The machine will not
sew with the feed dog down if any other stitches are
selected.
NOTE: The foot displayed on the LCD screen
changes to the open toe embroidery/darning foot
when the feed dog is down, except after selecting
stitch 2.
Locate the feed dog lever on the front right side of
the machine. Slide the lever either to the right
(down) q or to the left (up) w. To bring up the feed
dog, hand turn the flywheel after sliding lever to the
left.
If the feed dog is down, a message illustration will
appear in the LCD screen when sewing begins.

Presser Foot Lever

Raise and lower the foot with this lever q.
q
Before sewing can occur the presser foot must be
lowered to close the tension discs. If you attempt to
sew with the foot in the up position, the LCD screen
will show this message illustration to remind you to
lower the foot.

Additional Presser Foot Clearance

You can raise the presser foot about 6.5 mm (1/4˝)
higher than the normal up position for easy removal
of the presser foot or to place heavy fabrics under
the presser foot or setting the dual feed device. Pull
the presser foot lever q up beyond the normal up
position.
