IDT™ System (Integrated Dual Feed) For sewing any fabric precisely, the PFAFF® creative icon™ machine 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. The material is fed precisely, eliminating puckering on seams in light weight fabrics such as silk and rayon. The dual feed A action of the IDT™ system prevents layers from shifting while sewing, keeping quilt layers aligned and ensuring a more perfect match when sewing plaid or striped fabrics. Engaging the IDT™ System Important: For all work with the IDT™ system, use presser feet with the center back cut-out (A). Raise the presser foot to extra high position. Press the IDT™ system down until it engages. Note: Your machine is equipped with an IDT sensor which will alert you if you should engage the IDT. Disengaging the IDT™ System Raise the presser foot. Hold the IDT™ system with two fingers at the ribbed ankle. Pull the IDT™ system down, then pull it away from you to release the IDT™ system slowly upward. Preparations 46
