No. 1-03
Stitch
Note
• When using zipper foot “I”, be sure to select the
straight stitch (middle (center) needle position), and
slowly turn the handwheel toward you
(
counterclockwise)
to check that the needle does
not touch the presser foot.
CAUTION
• When sewing, be sure that the needle does not
touch the zipper, otherwise the needle may
break and cause injury.
Memo
• If the presser foot contacts the zipper slider, leave
the needle lowered (in the fabric) and raise the
presser foot. After moving the slider so it will not
contact the presser foot, lower the presser foot and
continue sewing.
IMPORTANT
• If glue is used to hold the appliqué in place on
the fabric, do not apply glue to areas that will
be sewn with the machine. If glue adheres to
the needle or bobbin case, the machine may
be damaged.
