Sewing feet

When the pedal is pressed back halfway, the sewing feet can be raised
during sewing, e.g. to move the material being sewn.
When the pedal is pressed completely back, the sewing feet will be raised
after the thread is cut so that the material being sewn can be exchanged.

The distance between the raised sewing feet and the throat plate is preset
