Either the mechanism that holds the presser foot in place is broken or defective or the presser foot is not correct for the machine.

The pressure foot will not lower/ seems like the pressure foot lifter is stripped or missing something...when I raise it, it falls back down but the pressure foot remains in the lifted position

Most likely something has become disconnected or misaligned. Perhaps it is time for a routine service call to your local sewing machine shop.

Why doesn't the pressure foot fall correctly

Open up the side cover, put a couple drops of oil where you see the spring covered shaft against the back of the machine. Move your level up and down until it begins to move freely. Use sewing machine oil only. 3-in-1 creates a sticky residue that will gum up your machine.

Does the Stitch in the Ditch foot have slot for the needle, the one have has a central hole, I need to be able to move the needle positinn slightly to the right. many thanks. Yvonne Kneubuhler ...

I always stitch in the ditch with my regular clear plastic pressure foot so I can see where I am stitching and keep the stitches falling into the seam gap (the ditch).

Sewingpartsonline.com have a "stitch in the Ditch" foot and it looks like it has a wide slot. It seems to have a nice metal rudder to line up in the seam line and that looks central so you'd still be stitching right in the middle of the foot I'd say if you used this one.

link is http://www.sewingpartsonline.com/stitch-in-ditch-foot-low-shank-p60706.aspx

But you'd need to get the correct foot for your machine, that one is a low shank so it may well fit if your machine is a low shank type.

GOOD DAY, THE ELNA 9000 WHICH I HAVE JUST BOUGHT 2ND HAND HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE PRESSSURE FOOT HANDLE. IT DOES NOT STAY IN PLACE, BUT KEEPS ON FALLING DOWN, AS IF A SPRING IS WORN OUT AND THE COTTON MAKES...

No pressure being applied to the pressure foot and therefore the fabric between it and the feed dogs means no feeding of the fabric.

The pressure foot has a spring up inside the head of the machine and this is probably broken causing this fault.

I would suggest that you take the machine to your local SM service technician..
