Setup and Installation

To install the presser feet, you will first need to attach the appropriate adapter to your sewing machine. The set includes a Low Shank Snap-matic Shank and an OLD Style System adapter. Once the correct adapter is in place, the various snap-on presser feet can be easily attached and detached.

General Installation Steps:

1. Power Off: Always ensure your sewing machine is turned off and unplugged before changing any parts.
2. Remove Old Foot/Shank: If a presser foot or shank is currently attached, raise the presser foot lever and unscrew or unclip the existing component.
3. Attach Adapter: Depending on your machine's configuration, attach either the Low Shank Snap-matic Shank or the OLD Style System adapter to the presser foot bar. Secure it firmly with the screw.
4. Attach Presser Foot: Align the desired snap-on presser foot with the adapter's pin and lower the presser foot lever until it snaps into place.
5. Verify Clearance: Before sewing, manually turn the handwheel towards you to ensure the needle clears the foot and does not strike any part of it. Adjust if necessary.

Operating Instructions for Each Foot

Each presser foot in this set is designed for specific sewing applications. Understanding their functions will help you achieve professional results.

• 1. Zigzag Foot:

  General purpose foot commonly used for zigzag and straight stitches. The wide needle hole makes this foot compatible with a variety of stitches, including applique, decorative, and more.

• 2. Straight Stitch Foot:

  The small needle hole of this foot prevents lightweight fabric from "buckling" and causing puckering or skipped stitches. It is also ideal for very narrow seams.

• 3. 1/8'' Rolled Hem (Hemming) Foot:

  Feed your fabric through the small funnel located on the front of the foot. The funnel turns the fabric under while the needle stitches it down to create a perfect narrow hem.

• 4. Overcast Foot:

  This foot mimics a serged/overlock effect, preventing raw edges from fraying by wrapping thread around the edges.

• 5. Blindhem Foot:

  This foot is required to sew a Blindhem quickly and easily.

• 6. Zipper Foot:

  This foot can be used for any zipper type. This foot allows you to sew as close to the zipper as possible without accidentally nicking the zipper teeth. Also great for sewing cording and piping.

• 7. Sliding Buttonhole Foot:

  This foot ensures all your buttonholes and drawstring holes are perfectly stitched and even. Adjust to fit your button size.

• 8. Quilt Guide:

  This time-saving tool is used to quilt perfectly parallel lines. Instead of drawing each line, simply draw one and continue to line the quilting guide up after each quilted line.

• 9. Button Sew On Foot:

  This foot is designed to hold buttons securely in place while your machine stitches them on, ensuring a neat and strong attachment.

• 10. Three Thread Cording Foot:

  This foot is used for attaching decorative cords or piping, allowing for precise placement and stitching.

Maintenance and Care

Proper care of your presser feet attachments will ensure their longevity and optimal performance.

• Cleaning: After use, wipe down presser feet with a soft, dry cloth to remove any lint or fabric residue. For stubborn dirt, a slightly damp cloth can be used, followed by thorough drying.
• Storage: Store presser feet in a dry, dust-free environment, preferably in their original packaging or a dedicated storage case, to prevent rust and damage.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect presser feet for any signs of wear, bending, or damage. Replace any damaged parts to prevent issues with your sewing machine or fabric.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Do not use abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish or material of the presser feet.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues while using the presser feet, consider the following common solutions:

• Needle Hitting Foot: Ensure the correct presser foot is installed for the stitch type selected. Manually turn the handwheel to check needle clearance before starting to sew. If the needle strikes the foot, re-check installation or ensure the foot is compatible with your machine's needle position settings.
• Fabric Not Feeding Properly: Check that the presser foot is securely attached and that the feed dogs are engaged. Ensure the fabric is positioned correctly under the foot.
• Skipped Stitches or Puckering: This can often be resolved by using the appropriate presser foot for the fabric type and stitch, ensuring proper tension, and using a sharp, correct-sized needle. The Straight Stitch Foot is particularly useful for preventing puckering on delicate fabrics.
• Foot Feels Loose: Re-tighten the screw securing the adapter to the presser foot bar. Ensure the snap-on foot is fully engaged with the adapter's pin.
