How do I Lower the pressure foot for sewing after changing from embroidery on my brother pc- 8500?

Would a manual help?

Brother PC 8500 User Manual

Are the feed dogs in the raised position? Is it a regular stitch presser foot or a darning foot? A darning foot is shorter in height so the fabric can be maneuvered without use of the feed dogs. Just some ideas. Could also be an embroidery setting that has not been deactivated.

The feeder dose not feed

there is a switch on the back of most machines behind the feed dogs that allow you to drop the feet for embroidery, you have to switch it back to raise the feed dogs back up

Brother pc-8500 embroidery machine will not respond to an on-off touch most of the time it works ok when it finally does turn on.

sounds like the computer part of the machine needs to be checked
only a sewing machine repair shop can tell what the problem is
