This foot makes it easy to place

as well as zipper insertion.
It can be adjusted to either the
right or the left side of the needle.
When the zipper is to the right of needle:
1. Loosen the thumb screw at the back of the foot
and slide the foot to the left of the needle.
2. Check the position of the foot by lowering the needle
into the right tide outer notch A of the foot, making
sure it clears the foot.
3. Lock the foot into position by tightening the thumb
screw, and the machine is ready to sew.
When the zipper is to the left of the needle, adjust
the foot to the right of the needle in the same way.
