Foot pedal

The foot pedal of a sewing machine is comparable to the accelerator pedal of a car - because it accelerates the sewing process. The foot pedal controls the sewing speed, leaving your hands free to guide or hold the fabric. A sewing machine pedal consists of a rectangular or triangular plastic housing with a cable. The cable is plugged into the foot connection on the side of the sewing machine.

Some machines have a double cable - with an additional socket - which is plugged into the same connection on the sewing machine. Others have a separate foot and power connection.

A foot pedal is machine- or manufacturer-specific, so it is not necessarily possible to interchange the foot pedals of our machines.
