Precision pin feeding system: It's so easy to sew a wide variety of fabric thicknesses thanks to Brother's Pin Feed system for precision fabric feeding. The feed pin passes up through all layers of fabric moving with the feed dog’s motion to feed all layers of the fabric evenly.
✽ For safety, the feed pin is automatically lowered when presser foot is raised.
