Turn the handwheel toward you
(counterclockwise) and check that the
needle does not touch the zipper foot
before you start sewing. Choosing a
different stitch will cause the needle to
hit the presser foot and break, and you
may be injured.
Do not turn on the machine while pressing
down the foot controller. The machine
may start unexpectedly and cause
personal injury or damage to the machine.
