A C IDT™ system (Integrated Dual Feed) For sewing any fabric precisely the PFAFF® performance™ 5.2 sewing 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 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. Press the IDT™ system down until it engages. 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. A Preparations 2:8

IDT
system (Integrated Dual Feed)
For sewing any fabric precisely the PFAFF
®
performance
5.2 sewing 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 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. Press the
IDT
system down
until it engages.
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.
