Sewing thick fabrics

If the fabric does not fit under the presser foot

If the fabric does not fit easily under the presser 
foot, raise the presser foot lever even higher to 
bring the presser foot to its highest position.

If thick seams are being sewn and the fabric does 
not feed at the beginning of stitching

Zigzag foot “ J”  is equipped with a feature that 
keeps the presser foot level.

Sewing direction

1

When you encounter a seam that is too thick 
to feed under the foot, raise the presser foot 
lever.

2

Press the black button on the left side of the 
foot. Keep the button held in and lower the 
presser foot.

3

Release the button. The foot will lock in place 
level with the seam, allowing the fabric to 
feed. 

X

Once the trouble spot has been passed, the 
foot will return to its normal position.

1

If fabric more than 6 mm (15/64 inch) 
thick is sewn or if the fabric is pushed 
with too much force, the needle may 
bend or break.
