Pressure Adjusting Lever
_i_ Pressure adjusting lever
The pressure adjusting lever should be set at "3" for regular
sewing.
Reduce the pressure to "2" for applique, cut work, draw
work and basting.
Set the pressure at "1" when sewing chiffon, lace, organdy
and other fine fabrics. Velour and knits with a lot of stretch
may also require the pressure at "1".
Presser Foot Lifter

The presser foot lifter raises and lowers the presser foot.
You can raise it about 1/4" (0.6 cm) higher than the normal
up position for easy removal of the presser foot, or to help
you place heavy fabric under the foot.
Thread Cutter
