You unplug the foot pedal and just push the start button to run it
I am having a ton of trouble with it tonight. I am so frustrated. It keeps skipping stitches. I have re threaded a dozen times and am on the 3rd brand new needle. I have taken out more stitches today than I have in a very long time!!!! I have give up for tonight. I will try again after church tomorrow. If I don't have any more luck, off it goes and I will try to FMQ without it. Don't know if the BSR foot is the issue or not but I'm ready to toss it out the window!!!
