7.9 Lifting the sewing feet
You use the foot pedal during sewing, e.g. to move the material being
sewn.
Figure 17: Foot pedal
• Press the foot pedal (1) half the way back.
The machine stops and lifts the sewing feet. The sewing feet remain up as
long as the foot pedal is pressed back half the way.
If the foot pedal is pressed back completely, the machine sews an end
strip and stops sewing. Machines with automatic thread cutter cut the
thread off.
7.10 Locking the sewing feet in the upper position
There is a lever at the back of the machine for holding the sewing feet in
the upper position.
Figure 18: Holding the sewing feet in the upper position with the lever
To hold the sewing feet in the upper position:
• Push the lever down.
To cancel the lock:
• Push the lever up.
You can also use the foot pedal to cancel the upper position:
• Press the foot pedal half the way back like for lifting the sewing feet.
The lever swivels back up and the lock is removed.
