Note: With any of the 1/4 inch Right Guide feet for IDT™ system attached to machines with manual presser foot lift we recommend not to lift the presser foot to the extra high position. This may cause the needle holder to touch the guide on the presser feet.
With the needle set down position we recommend just to lift the presser foot as much as needed for pivoting so that the fabric can be turned freely.
