The feed dog is stuck in the down position, and it will not adjust to the higher position when I adjust the feed dog control. Thanks
I have the same problem...this is a work around, not a fix. You need a small flat-head screwdriver. 1. Remove the clear bobbin cover. 2. Make sure the feed dog switch is in the DOWN position. 3. Slide the screwdriver under the feeddogs from inside the bobbin area & lift the feed dogs. 4. While holding the feed dogs in the up position, return the feed dog knob to the up position. You have to do this every time you put the feed dogs down...bummer, but I can find no broken part or adjustment that corrects this. If it's inside the machine body, I don't mess with it... I did take off the bottom plate in the feed dog area..one screw holds it.... there is nothing there to indicate a problem.
where is feed dog switch
To raise the feed dogs...Take off the freearm extension (cover over the base of the machine). Now you should see the feed dog lever/switch...move it to the side that you want (there are two options...a line with teeth on top, and a line with teeth under it). To raise the feed dogs...move the switch to the line with the teeth above it...then turn the hand wheel about 1/4 turn clockwise (away from you)...only turn until the feed dogs pop up.
To put the feed dogs down, move the lever/switch to the side with the teeth Under the line. Turn the hand wheel towards you...the feed dogs should go down.
You don't want to use a screwdriver on the feed dogs, you may strip a screw. If you read the manual, it will tell you how to raise/lower the feed dogs. If you don't have the manual...you can download the pdf version free athttp://www.singerco.com
