\«ithout a piug for connection to the mains. The \«ires in this
mains lead are coloured in accordance \«ith the follow/ing code:
Biue - Neutral (N) Bro\«n - Live (L)
Note: As the colours of the \«ires in the mains iead of this
appliance may not correspond \«ith the coloured markings
identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follow/s:

To turn on the machine and set speed range, push the po\wer

® The MIN setting F (s\witch pressed in halfway) allows for
maximum control. Use this setting for special jobs where
intricate construction details require close control.
9 The MAX setting G (switch pressed in all the way) allows
for full speed capacity of the machine. It Is best for long,
straight seams, easy-to-handle fabrics, and general sewing
where a variety of speeds are needed.
Caution: Disconnect the power line plug from the socket
outlet when changing needles, feet or needle plates or when
leaving the machine unattended. This eliminates the possi­
bility of starting the machine by accidentally pressing the
speed controller.
