At-A-Glance Reference Guideto BERNINA Presser Feet, Attachments, and AccessoriesPresser Feet: are precision engineered for specific functions are Swiss-made for the highest quality are one-piece metal feet, making them strong and durable are easy to change with one hand, requiring no special tools have a white shank, making it easier to see the eye of the needle, resulting in easier threading are, in some cases, modeled after commercial feet used in factories to increase speed andproduction with professional looking results do the job intended in relation to all types of sewing (garment making, quilting, crafting, etc.) are supported by the best and most complete educational materials in the industry such asFeet-ures, Volumes 1, 2, and 3 and the BERNINA USA website (www.berninausa.com)Understanding the Numbers/LettersBERNINA presser feet are numbered and may have one or two additional versions with a letter that followsthe number, such as Edgestitch Foot #10C or Jeans Foot #8D.No Letter—The number without a letter refers to a foot engineered to be used with BERNINAmodels that have a CB Hook and a maximum stitch width of 5.5mm. These feet may also becompatible with models that have a 9mm width when a 9mm width is not applicable, suchas when making pintucks with feet #30, 31, 32, or 33.The Letter “C”—When a foot number is followed by a C, it indicates a version of the footmade for models that have rotary hook systems and a maximum stitch width of 9mm. The“C” stands for coded and refers to the sensor on the foot that works with the electronics ofthe machine to engage the wider stitch width (see page 8 for more information on sensors).The sole of the “C” foot is usually larger to fit the wider feed dogs of the rotary hook machines.Exceptions: Overlock Foot #2/2A: 2A is larger to fit the wider feed dog but does not have a sensorfor a wider stitch because the overlock stitches are not used at wide widths. Extra Wide GatheringFoot #16C: 16C is larger to fit the wider feed dog but does not have a sensor for a wider stitch width.The Letter “D”—The feet that have a number followed by a D are designedto work with the 8-Series (models 830 and 820) Dual Feed feature. Afterattaching the foot, the dual feed mechanism is positioned in the cutout on theback of the foot, engaging the BERNINA Dual Feed system. It is recommendedthat the D-Feet are used only when engaging the BERNINA Dual Feed feature.PRESSER FEET PRODUCTIONAssembling the Walking Foot Hand-polishing Presser Feet Soles Assembling the Blind Hem FootPage 1 of 8 2009 BERNINA of America, Inc.
