20 Operate your sewing machine

The IDT™ system

(Integrated Dual Feed)

For sewing any fabric precisely PFAFF®

provides the ideal solution: the Integrated

Dual Feed, IDT™ system.

As on industrial machines, the IDT™

system feeds the fabric from the top and

bottom at the same time at the same stitch

length. The fabric is fed precisely.

On light fabrics such as silk or rayon the

dual feed prevents puckering of the seam.

The even feeding action also ensures

perfect matching of checked and striped

fabrics. The IDT™ system keeps all

layers of quilt projects aligned to prevent

stretching of the top layers.

Engaging the IDT™ system

Raise the presser foot. Press the IDT™

system down until it engages.

Important! For all work with the

Integrated Dual Feed IDT™ system, use

presser feet with the center back cut-out.

Disengaging the IDT™ system

Hold the Dual Feed with two À ngers at

the ribbed ankle. Press the IDT™ system

down, then pull it away from you and

release the IDT™ system slowly upward.
