Needle Hitting Presser Foot
The needle keeps hitting the presser foot, after I've changed the needle, and taken the foot off and on again. I can't think of any other reason for this problem.

There are several reasons why the needle keeps hitting the presser foot/needle plate: 1. The presser foot you are using may not be appropriate for the type of stitch that you want to sew. - Attach the presser foot that is correct for they type of stitch that you want to sew. The also needle could have been damaged or bent.
I hope this is helpful? PLEASE "ACCEPT" and mark it "HELPFUL" to complement my little effort. Hope to bring you more detailed answers
