A real BERNINA highlight. Use the kneelifter to raise and lower the presser
foot, leaving both hands free. The simultaneous lowering of the feed-dogs
protects the fabric. Ideal for free-motion techniques like darning and quilting.
Use the Start/stop button and speed regulator as an alternative to the foot
control. This can save time and physical effort.
