Unpacking the MachinePlace the machine on the table
and remove the compartment
by drawing it out in the direc
tion of the arrow.
Connecting the Foot Controller
and Power CordBefore plugging in your ma
chine, be sure that the voltage
is the same as that of your
machine. The machine’s vol
tage is written on a plate at the
lower right of the machine.
Take out the foot controller
and push the plug into the
socket at the right end of the
machine.
Then connect the machine to
the house power supply.
Power and light can be put
“on” and “off” by pressing
the switch at the lower right
of the machine.

Place an empty bobbin on tht
winding spindle. Put a spoo
on the spool pin. Draw th€
thread from the spool pir
through the guide and thE
pre-tension device, followinc
numbers J 2. and to thr
bobbin.
Wind the thread clockwiss
around the bobbin severai
Omes.Push the bobbin towards the
hand wheel and press down
the foot controller.The machine stops autornatically when winding is finished.
Return the spindle to its for
mer position and tighten the
stop motion knob.
lf you notice that the bobbir
is wound unevenly, as in Fig
I and III, loosen the set-screv
of the pre-tension device wib
the small screwdriver, arc
adjust by letting the pre
tension device up or dowruntil the winding become:

inserting the BobbinWhen the bobbin is wound,place it inside its case. Makesure that the thread runs in thedirection of the arrow.
Threading the Lower ThreadSlide the thread into the slotof the bobbin case.Pulling the thread to the left,pass the thread under thetension spring.
Pass the thread through thebobbin thread guide.
Checking the TensionComplete the threading of thelower thread. Take out theend of the thread from thebobbin thread guide.Place the bobbin and thebobbin case on your palm.Pick it up by the end of thethread and shake it gently.At the proper tension, thebobbin case will gradually drop
a small amount.

It is straight.The gap is even.
Improper needle
Bent needle.
Blunt point.
Inserting the Bobbin Case
Be sure the needle is above the
needle plate.Push the bobbin case into the
rotary hook, holding the latch
of the bobbin case with your
thumb and index finger When
the boboin case is inserted,
close the latch.
Checking the NeedleAlways use a straight rieedie
with a sharp point. If the
needle is bent or hds a blunt
point, change the needle.Using
defective or worn needles not
only causes stitch skipping,
breakage of needles, oi
snapping of thread, it alsc
can damage the rotary hook
and the needle plate.
Changing the NeedleWith the needle bar in thE
highest position, loosen tnEneedle cldmp screw. Take ou
the needle to be changedInsert a new needle as far ait will go, with the flat facEaway from you. Tighten thEneedle clamp screw firmly.

5. STRAIGHT SEWING
We begin by sewing a straight
stitch which is the stitch most
frequently used for seams.
Set the machine as shown
opposite.
Starting SewingWith the presser foot up, turn
the hand wheei towards you
and put the needle into the
material about lcml3,8”) in
from the bottom edge.
To reinforce the seam at the
beginning, sew in reverse to
the bottom edge of the
material.
After a few stitches of reverse
sewing, release the reverse
sewing button arid commence
forward sewing by gently pres
ing down on the foot controller.
It,
Foot ControllerThe speed of the machine i:regulated solely by increasinçor decreasing pressure on thifoot controller. You shouldnever try to increase the feedng or slow it down by pulling the material.
Turning CornersSlow the speed as you approach the corner and stopstitch away from the corner.Then turn the hand wheeltowards you manually to position the needle in the materiaat the pivot point.
Raise the presser foot anturn the material with thneedle in. Lower t[ie pressfoot and sew forward in thnew direction.
Ending a SeamAt the end of a seam, presthe reverse sewing buttonsew a few stitches for reirforcement and stop the machine when the take-up levEis in its highest position.
Raise the presser foot an
remove the material away fromyou. Cut the thread with th
thread cutter at the back
the presser bar.

Cloth GuideThe cloth guide is used whensewing a seam with a certaininterval from the edge. Setthe guide in the hole of thearm, right to the needle plate,and adjust the distance.Run the machine with theedge of the fabric toucningthe guide. Position the clothguide at an angle to sew acurved seam.
Thread Tension AdjustmentPerfect tension: The tensionon tie upper and the lowerthreads should be equal andstrong enough to lock boththreads in the centre of thework.
Your machine has been testedwith the thread which accompanics the machine, lt maybe necessary to adjust thethread tension somewhat ifyou use thread of a differentthickness.
Upper tension too tight: If theupper thread lies straight alongthe upper surface of the material, decrease the tension by

15. FAGOTING
Seam edges joined with fagoting are a delicate addition toblouses, dresses, lingerie, andchildren’s clothes.
Fold the edges of the twopieces of material and press.Tack the folded edges to apiece of thin paper, leaving aspace between them, so thatthe stitches catch into thematerial fold on alternate sides.When finishing sewing, remove the tacking and gentlypull the paper away.
16. ELASTIC STITCH
For Heavy Stretch MaterialUse triplelock stitchlU, whichhas stretchability and strength.The stitch is particularly usefulfor sewing seams where addedstrength is needed, i.e., sleeveinsertion, as well as for sewingjersey and other stretch material.
For Light Stretch MaterialSet the machine as shownopposite
It is recommended to reducethe pressure of the presserfoot a little.
A ball-point needle is essential.
Paper may be laid under knits

Left side: Change the pattern
to B I I. Sew the left side
from front to back until it
reaches the end line.
When making same-size but
tonholes, memorize the point
where the arrow shows so
that it is not necessary to mark
the end lines for all the button

Right side: Change the pattern
to D I J I and sew the right
side until it catches the first
bar tack.
Quick finish: To prevent unstitching, set the zigzag widthat “0” and proceed for a fewstitches.
Corded ButtonholesFor stretch fabrics such as
knits, a corded buttonhole is
effective to keep the finished
buttonhole in shape.Hook the filler cord on the top
spur and lead the ends of the
cord under the foot, pull taut,
nd hook them to the bottom
notches as shown. Proceed
with stitching as for regular
buttonholes.
