Instruction manual

Your Baby Lock will operate at best performance if it is kept clean at all times. The serger's cutting action cre-
ates much more lint than you will find on conventional sewing machine.
Your serger's major moving parts are well protected and do not need to be oiled.
However, we recommend that you use the cleaning brush often during garment construction in order to keep
lint off the blades, the needle bar, the feed dog mechanism and loopers. If machine needs to be oiled, check
with your nearest Baby Lock retailer for use of high grade recommended sewing machine oil.
