    • Position your fabric under the presser foot of your sewing machine in the upper right hand corner of the hook-and-loop tape. Drop the presser foot.

    • Use the balance wheel to sink the needle.

    • The balance wheel should only be turned in the direction that advances the sewing machine. Usually, this means turning the wheel towards you. Turning the wheel in the opposite direction can ruin the tension on the sewing machine, causing it to jam. See your sewing machine manual for instructions specific to your machine.
