This is from the manual I have -
Push down on the outer ring of the pressure regulator. (located at the top & left round knob, of the machine) This will release the pressure on the presser foot.
To increase the pressure, push down inner pin until a suitable pressure is obtained.
Insufficient pressure may cause poor feeding of the fabric, skipped stiches, or difficulty in guiding the fabric. If feed dogs or presser foot marks appear on the fabric, reduce the pressure.
When sewing multiple thickness or heavy fabric, reudce the pressure.
Increase pressure when sewing lighter weight fabrics.

How do you fix a sewing machine?
If you want to replace the needle on your sewing machine, you unscrew the thumbscrew behind and above the needle (with the presser foot down) and remove the old needle. Then hold the new needle under there with the point down and insert it into the slot. The slot is usually half round, half flat so you have to be sure the flat part of the needle matches the flat part of the slot. When it is in there, you just finger tighten the thumbscrew and you are ready to go.

How do you attach a vertical needle zipper foot to a Singer sewing machine?
To do this, you must not only take off your regular presser foot, but take of the part directly above it. You must loosen the presser foot screw, and take everything off below it. Then, look for a part on the zipper foot that hooks around a little. Put that where the original presser foot and the "presser foot holder" was. Then tighten the screw. 1=Loosen the presser foot screw. 2=Remove the presser foot and the part that the presser foot snaps in and out of. 3=Find the hook-like part, the same as on the presser foot holder, and put it where the other one originally was. 4=Tighten the presser foot screw. 5=Put the zipper foot down. It should be a little bit higher than touching the sewing machine. 6=To move the zipper foot from left or right, loosen the screw in the back of the presser foot, and slide the foot from side to side! Then tighten the screw again!
