When the foot controller is depressed lightly, the machine will run at a low speed. When the pressure on the foot controller is increased, the machine’s speed will increase. When pressure on the foot controller is released, the machine will stop. Care should be taken that nothing is placed on the foot controller when the machine is not in use. CAUTION Do not allow fabric pieces and dust to collect in the foot controller. Doing so could cause a fire or an electric shock.
The sewing needle must always be straight and sharp for smooth sewing. 1 Parallel space 2 Level surface (bobbin cover, glass, etc.) 1 KNOWING YOUR SEWING MACHINE To Check the Needle Correctly: To check the needle, place the flat side of the needle on a flat surface. Check the needle from the top and the sides. Throw away any bent needles. TABLE OF CONTENTS Checking the Needle * Place a level surface under the needle. 2 CAUTION • • 1. Remove the power supply plug from the outlet.
Verificación de la aguja Controllo dell’ago La aguja de costura siempre debe estar bien recta y afilada para una buena costura. Per ottenere una cucitura scorrevole, l’ago utilizzato deve essere sempre ben diritto ed appuntito. Para comprobar la aguja: Para revisar la aguja, coloque la parte plana de la aguja sobre una superficie plana. Compruebe la aguja por la parte superior y los laterales. Tire las agujas que estén dobladas.
CAUTION • • PRECAUCIÓN • • ATTENZIONE • Prima di sostituire il piedino premistoffa, spegnere sempre la macchina.
