sewing along outline of design
with satin stitch.
Continue sewing guiding hoop
by hand.
To finish filling, sew several
stitches with zigzag width at 0.
Lay typewriting paper underneath
when embroidering sheer fabric.
20. MAINTENANCE
Your machine requires regular
cleaning and oiling for satis
factory sewing performance.
A machine which is used for a
few hours a day needs to be
cleaned and oiled once a month.
Cleaning
Remove foot and needle.
Remove needle plate.
Brush off all dust and lint on feed
dog with cleaning brush.
Turn latches outwards.
Remove hook race cover.
Remove hook. Clean hook race
with a cleaning brush and a soft
cloth.
-39-
Oiling
Use oil manufactured specially
for sewing machine use. Other
oils will eventually cause
mechanism to jam.
Apply one drop of oil to part of
hook where friction occurs.
Open face cover and apply oil in
the same way.
Be careful not to apply too much
oil or it may stain your material
and cause some sewing difficulty.
After oiling, run machine for 1-2
minutes to allow oil to penetrate
to every part.
Remove top cover by loosening
screws (a) and (b) with large
screwdriver.
kpply one drop of oil to lubricating points indicated by arrows.
