CAUTION
• When using zipper foot “I”, make sure the
straight stitch, middle needle position is
selected. Turn the handwheel to make sure the
needle does not strike the presser foot. If
another stitch is selected, the needle will strike
the presser foot, causing the needle to break
and possibly causing injury.
