General Installation Steps:

1. Identify Shank Type: Confirm your sewing machine has a low shank. This set is not suitable for industrial, old, or mini sewing machines.
2. Remove Current Foot: Loosen the screw holding the current presser foot in place and carefully remove it.
3. Attach Adapter (if needed): If using a foot that requires the universal low shank adapter, attach the adapter to your machine's presser foot bar first. Secure it with the screw.
4. Attach New Foot: Align the new presser foot with the adapter or the presser foot bar (if directly attaching). Lower the presser foot lever to snap it into place or tighten the screw.
5. Test: Gently lower the needle to ensure it clears the foot opening without obstruction.

Operating Instructions

Each presser foot in this set is designed for a specific sewing technique. Understanding the function of each foot will help you achieve professional results. The included instruction guide provides basic guidance for each foot.

General Usage Tips:

• Select the Correct Foot: Choose the presser foot that matches the specific sewing task (e.g., zipper foot for zippers, quilting foot for quilting).
• Adjust Machine Settings: After attaching a new foot, adjust your sewing machine's stitch type, stitch length, stitch width, and tension as recommended for the specific technique. Refer to your sewing machine's manual for guidance on these adjustments.
• Practice: Before working on your main project, practice with scrap fabric to familiarize yourself with the new foot and its effect on the stitch.
• Needle Compatibility: Ensure your needle type and size are appropriate for the fabric and the chosen presser foot.

For detailed instructions on how to use each specific presser foot, consult the instruction guide provided with the set and your sewing machine's user manual.

Maintenance and Care

Proper maintenance will extend the life of your presser feet and ensure their continued performance.

Cleaning:

• After each use, gently wipe the presser feet with a soft, dry cloth to remove any lint, dust, or fabric fibers.
• For stubborn residue, a slightly damp cloth can be used, but ensure the feet are thoroughly dried immediately to prevent rust, as they are made of steel.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, which can damage the finish or material.

Storage:

• Always store the presser feet in the provided clear plastic box with the foam insert. This protects them from damage, dust, and keeps them organized.
• Store the box in a dry environment to prevent moisture buildup, which could lead to corrosion.

Troubleshooting

Most issues encountered when using presser feet can be resolved by checking basic settings and proper installation.

Common Issues and Solutions:

• Stitch Irregularities:
  • Ensure the correct presser foot is selected for the stitch type.
  • Verify that the presser foot is securely attached and not loose.
  • Check your sewing machine's tension, stitch length, and stitch width settings.
• Needle Hitting Foot:
  • Confirm the presser foot is correctly aligned and fully attached.
  • Ensure the needle is the correct type and size for your machine and fabric.
  • Adjust the needle position or stitch width if your machine allows.
• Fabric Not Feeding Properly:
  • Check if the presser foot is appropriate for the fabric thickness and type.
  • Ensure the feed dogs are engaged (not dropped).
  • Verify presser foot pressure is correctly set on your machine (if adjustable).

If you continue to experience issues, consult your sewing machine's user manual or contact a qualified sewing machine technician.
