Gathering; Darning - Brother Pacesetter PS-21 Operation Manual

5
Sew from the bottom of the zipper toward the
top on both sides. The needle should be
positioned on the zipper side of the foot for
best results.
6 To sew the opposite side of the zipper, release
the foot by raising the lever located at the
back of the presser foot, position the zipper
foot on the other side of the zipper and
continue sewing using the notch on the other
side.
CAUTION
●
Make sure the needle does not hit the zipper
during sewing. If the needle hits the zipper,
the needle may break and you may be injured.
