I think that most machines that allow adjustment of presser foot pressure have it as a knob at the top left of the machine, basically above the rod that raises and lowers the presser foot. If you have this kind of knob, it is usually a screw type which I assume follows the "righty tighty" rule. I have seen this kind of thing on older machines I have fixed up for a local non-profit. Still think it's really strange that my expensive Bernina 1230 does not have an adjustment for presser foot pressure!
