Functions of various parts

The various parts of the sewing machine have the functions described below.
Drop feed lever

at the back of the
machine, the feed dog

The machine will sew in reverse

• When sewing, lower the presser foot lever to
lower the presser foot. (1)
• When inserting fabric, lift up the presser foot
lever to raise the presser foot. (2)
• The presser foot can be raised even higher by
raising the presser foot lever to 3.

hold it in place while inserting the fabric. This
position is useful when sewing thick fabric.

yourself (in the direction
of the arrow).
If it is turned in the
