● When using zipper foot “I”, be sure to
select the straight stitch (center needle
position), and slowly turn the handwheel
toward you (counterclockwise) to check
that the needle does not touch the
presser foot. If a different stitch is
selected or the needle hits the presser
foot, the needle may bend or break.
● When sewing, be sure that the needle
does not touch the zipper, otherwise the
needle may bend or break.
