2. Lubrication (Fig. 7)

Lubrication is important for the trouble-free operation and long service life of the machine. Therefore, after setting-up machine as per paragraph 1, drop a sewing machme oil into all the holes indicated by arrows on Fig. 7, and also drop od onto the inner moving parts after opening the side cover and rear cover of machine.

Daily and before operating machine, place one or two drops of sewing machmc oil into CJ.ll the oil holes indicated by arrows on Fig. 7.

To assure clean operation. it is suggested that oiling be done upon completion of the work. This will allow excess oil to drip off and only the needed quantity will remain. Be certain to wipe off machine all excess oil before starting to work. Also before sewing, operate machine for about a minute or so with the knee lifte-r depressed to eliminate all excess lubricant.
