Got problem with harness foot just sliding instead of going up and down. It's markinh leather. Canvas foot feeds correctly.Any suggestions?

Power off the machine first.

1. Remove the top thread from the needle.
2. Hand wheel the flywheel towards you until the needle meets the top plane of the feed dog.
3. Loosen the bolt on the upper crank arm emitting from behind the left side of the head, using the largest metric wrench supplied with your machine.
4. Manually lower the inside alternating foot until it touches the feed dog.
5. Tighten the bolt on the crank arm.
6. Rotate the wheel and see if the outside foot lifts as the inside foot moves with the needle.
7. Assuming it does lift, you can adjust the amount of lift by moving the other crank that comes out near the middle of the rear of the machine.
8. Loosen the nut on the crank in the rear-middle so it can slide up and down on the curved slot. Move it up to more lift, or down for less.
9. Tighten down the screw on the lift control crank when you have enough alternating lift.

If you still can't get an equal amount of lift between the inside and outside feet, the presser bar may be out of adjustment. Or, it may be hanging up on the chain or an inside part.

Do what I outlined and the outer foot will be forced to lift by the inside foot making contact with the feed dog. They are interconnected inside the faceplate on a pivoting double crank. The big arm on the back with a large bolt loosens the position of the inside foot. Position it to make contact at the same time as the needle's point and tighten it back down.

Gotta go, bye.
