the needle. 
When sewing the right side of the zipper, attach the shank to the left pin of the zipper foot. When sewing the left 
side of the zipper, attach the shank to the right pin of the zipper foot.

Turn the handwheel by hand to make sure the 
needle does not hit the presser foot before 
you start sewing. If you choose a different 
stitch, the needle will hit the presser foot and 
break the needle. You may also be injured.
