Dual Feed / Walking Foot

The Dual Feed or Walking Foot makes it easy to sew several fabric layers such as quilting, match plaids or stripes, or sew napped or slippery fabrics.

The feed dogs of the walking foot work with the feed dogs of the machine to keep the fabric layers moving together. The Even Feed Foot securely grips the top layer or layers of fabric while the
sewing machine feeds the fabric from below. Plaids, stripes, and quilt layers stay perfectly aligned and leather, suede and vinyl flow easily through your machine.

1. Remove the presser foot and presser foot ankle.
2. Position the arm of the Walking Foot over the needle clamp screw and attach to the shank of the machine with the screw. Tighten securely.
Note: As the needle goes up and down, the feed dogs also move up and down, pulling the upper layer of fabric evenly along with the lower fabric.
3. Select the straight, zigzag, or other desired stitch. Do not select stitches with many backward stitches.
4. Place fabrics under the Walking Foot and stitch.
