To sew:
Raise the Presser Foot and position the fabric next to
a seam guideline on the needle plate. Lower the
needle to the point where you want to start.
Pull the needle and bobbin threads towards the rear.
Press the Start/Stop Button or Foot Control. Gently
guide the fabric along the seam guideline letting the

To sew from the edge of thick fabric:
The Black Button on the zigzag foot locks the foot in
the horizontal position.

edge of thick fabrics or sewing across a hem.
Lower the needle into the fabric at the point where you
wish to start sewing.
Lower the foot while pushing in the black button. The
foot will be locked in the horizontal position to avoid
slipping.
