3-6-2. Micro-lifter function
Sewing while lifting the presser foot by very small amount is enabled by inputting a negative value on the
panel. The micro-lifter function helps reduce slippage and damage of the material in the case of sewing
raised fabric such as velvet.
* Refer to the table shown below for a rough indication of the relation among the value input on the panel,
the presser foot height and the presser foot pressure.

Be sure to input a positive value on the operation panel in the case the micro-lifter function is not
used. If not, the presser foot is slightly raised and the feed dog is unable to provide a sufcient
efciency of feed.
