Sewing from the edge of thick fabric
The black button on the zigzag foot locks the foot in
the horizontal position.
This is helpful when starting sewing from the extreme
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.
The foot will be unlocked after sewing a few stitches.
