Replacing the needle
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 heavy fabric, loosen the
pressure by turning the screw counter
clockwise, and for thin fabric, tighten by turning
it clockwise.
To return to initial pressure foot setting turn the
presser foot pressure adjusting screw to
become flush with the face cover.
