NOTE:
After selecting the pattern, set the stitch width dial to 2.5 to select the
center needle position.
The zipper foot is used to sew various types of zippers and can easily
be positioned on the right or left side of the needle.
When sewing the right side of the zipper, attach the presser foot holder
to the left pin on the zipper foot. When sewing the left side of the
zipper, attach the presser foot holder to the right pin on the zipper foot.
(See fig. A.)
1. Set the pattern selection dial to the Straight Stitch. Set the stitch
length between “2” and “3”.
2. Lower the presser foot lever and attach the presser foot holder to
either the left or right pin on the zipper foot.
3. Fold the edge of the material 2 cm (3/4") and place the zipper un-
der the folded portion.
4. For the XL5130, XR32, XL5232, XR34, XL5340 and XR42, use the
stitch width dial to adjust the needle position.
Lower the needle into the notch on either the left or right side of the
zipper foot.
5. Sew from the bottom of the zipper toward the top on both sides.
The needle should be positioned on the zipper side of the foot for
best results. (See fig. B.)

the foot by raising the lever located at the back of the presser foot,
move the zipper foot to the other side of the zipper, and continue
