Operation

When the foot controller is pressed lightly, the 
machine runs at a low speed. As the foot controller 
is pressed further, the machine will increase 
speed. When the foot controller is released, the 
machine stops.

Foot controller: Model KD-1902 
This foot controller can be used on the machine 
with product code 884-B02 and 884-B03.

direction as an ordinary home sewing machine. 
The needles move to their highest positions by 
turning the hand wheel so that the mark <B> 
on the hand wheel is aligned to the line on the 
machine.
