(A) A Adjusting the presser foot pressure The presser foot pressure of the machine has been pre-set and requires no particular readjustment according to the type of fabric (light-or-heavy weight). However, if you need to adjust the presser foot pressure, turn the presser adjusting screw with a coin. For sewing very thin fabric, loosen the pressure by turning the screw counter clockwise, and for heavy fabric, tighten by turning it clockwise. 14 E Palanca para levantar el pié prénsatela con dos posiciones Para coser ropas extremamente gruesas se puede ensanchar el pasaje de la ropa debajo del pie subiendo la palanca del alza-prensatelas de un escalón.
