If your Sewing Machine's feed dogs are in the lowered position, follow these steps:

  1. Locate the Feed Dog lever on the back of the machine (near the needle plate).
  2. Push the lever to the right to raise the feed dog
  3. Turn the handwheel toward you to check if the feed dog comes up after setting the lever in the up position
  4. The feed dogs should be in the engaged (up) position.

The feed dog should be in the up position for normal sewing.
