Be sure the presser foot is installed correctly and that the presser foot is lowered before beginning to sew. If that doesn't help, try a different presser foot. If there are still issues, your machine may need service.

SOURCE: The presser foot came off Brothers sewing machine

position the foot under the shaft making sure the horizontal pin on the foot is in line with the horizontal groove on the end of presser foot fitting on the shaft. Lower the pressor foot arm and it should snap right on. If not, press it up manually. the directions should be in your manual. If you don't have your manual, you can get it online at www.brother-usa.com

There is a presser foot pressure dial on the left end of the machine, make sure it is on 3 or higher.

SOURCE: How do I move the presser foot on a Husqvarna

Not sure what exactly you need to know. Are you trying to lift the presser foot or change the presser foot to another one? If it is lifting, there will be a lever of some kind behind the machine. On one of my Husqvarna machines it was a big flat "paddle" shaped lever, not sure what shape it is on the Emerald machines. Lift the lever from the bottom upwards and outwards. Most Husqvarna machines have clip on-and-off feet. You just gently pull forwards on the foot (while the presser foot is raised) to remove it, then push the new one on making sure the small bar part of the presser foot goes into the clip on the presser foot ankle.

SOURCE: I removed the presser foot

I just looked at your free manual on the www.singerco.com site and it looks a little complicated to do, Do you think that maybe downloading the manual and enlarging the diagrams on pages 10 & 11 may help you? If not, call Singer customer service, at 1-800-4singer and ask for some advice. Good luck

SOURCE: husqvarna rose tried to run it and the pressure

There is a safety switch underneath the presser foot lever, its tucked away in the body cavity and its tough to see. The switch is operated by a metal spring that turns the switch off and on according to the presser foot lifter position. the spring, which kinda looks like a fork, gets compressed each time you lift the presser foot. It wears and works intermitantly. A dealer is the only solution, the back needs to come of, and its a dang tough job to replace without damaging the replacement spring.

The other thing it could be is a jammed check spring inside the tension assembly, again its a tough job as the auto tension assembly must be removed, along with the winder and loosening of the main board.

Husqvarna rose stopped sewing. Blinking foot icon. re-strung thread but still no results. Do not know what blinking foot icon means.

If the symbol is a presser foot, then most likely it is something to do with the foot itself. Is it the correct foot for the stitches you've selected, is the presser foot still raised, is the presser foot attached properly?

What do I do my husqvarna rose beeps when start to sew in the display window the presser foot flashes what's wrong?

It thinks the presser foot is in the up position. Will need to be repaired by experienced service tech (preferably a certified Viking service tech). There is a clamp that may just be out of place or it could be more involved. Good luck.

My Rose sewing machine will not sew. It beeps and the presser foot icon flashes. I have re threaded, re bobbined, re placed the presser foot, and I think I have cleared the memory, but I am not really...

That light means you need to lower the presser foot. It cannot sew until the foot is lowered. The lever to lower the foot is behind the needle area on the back.
