SIMPLICITY SEWING MACHINE SET-UP OPTIONS

Free arm sewing makes it easy to sew hard to reach

areas such as sleeves, pant legs, and necklines.

To convert to free arm sewing, grasp the left end of the

free-arm cover and pull it out to the left to remove

[Fig. 1].

Slip the sleeve or pant leg on the free arm as sho

wn and

sew [Fig. 2].

The pressure on the presser foot can be adjusted to accom-

modate sewing on various weights of fabric to ensure

proper fabric feeding and to eliminate skipped stitches.

1. Open the face cover [Fig. 3].

2. Move the lever until the desired pressure number is

displayed in the opening of the lever [Fig. 4]. Standard

setting is 2. To increase pressure move to a higher

number. To decrease pressure move to a lower number.

Set lever at 1 for heavyweight fabrics

Set lever at 2 for mediumweight fabrics

Set lever at 3 for lightweight fabrics

Set the lever at 0 for darning and free-motion sewing.

The drop feed mechanism lowers the feed teeth below the

needleplate. This eliminates the need to make stitch length

adjustments. When the feed teeth are

lowered, the fabric is

guided by hand, allowing free movement of the fabric in

any direction.

1. Turn the handwheel toward you to raise the needle to

its highest position.

2. Open the face cover and set the presser foot pressure

regulator to 0.

Remove the free arm cover and open the front bobbin

cov

er [Fig. 5].

4. Push down on the drop feed lever and the feed teeth

will drop below the needle plate [Fig. 6].

Push the lever up to return to normal sewing.

If the machine is not sitting on a level surface turn the

lev

eling screw to stabilize the machine.

1. Remove the free arm to access the screw under the

leveling bar [Fig. 7].

Turn the screw to the right to lower the machine.

Turn the screw to the left to elevate the machine.
