The Feed Dogs Will Not Go Back To The Raised Position.
I have a year old expression 150. I have never lowered the feed dogs before. Just found the leaver on the front of the machine. The feed dogs lowered just fine but when I move the leaver to the right the feed dogs do not pop back up. I have cleaned under the bobbin area. This does not make a difference. We are making a family baby quilt tomorrow and I'm worried I won't get my machine figured out. A very important day - Please help. Thanks, Eva Olson
