This machine does. Based on others we have it should park in the middle with the lever in the middle position.

path49, I'll pop the top off and get some pics today (Sunday).

For those two machines that park to the left I have offset straight stitch feet that go a long way to making a 1/4" seam. A lot easier for me than measuring 1/4" right from the needle and making a mark on the foot.
My wife can eye ball it real good, but she's been doing that for ever.

You don't need to take the top off...Just open up the side so the needle bar is visible. That's where you'd adjust it.
