TO CLEAN THE MACHINE

Your

sewing

machine

was

built

to

exacting

standards of precision and workmanship. Its per­

formance depends on the care and treatment it
receives when in use and before storing it away.

When in regular use, the machine should be

cleaned periodically to remove the lint and fluff
which may have accumulated round the working

parts. To clean the bobbin case area, see instruc­
tions for removing and replacing bobbin case on
pages 88 and 89. Oil the machine after each clean­
ing as instructed on pages 90, 91 and 92.

If the machine is to be stored away for an inde­

finite period of time, a thorough brush-cleaning to

remove all traces of lint and fluff, followed by
swabbing of all exposed parts with a lint-free brush

saturated with SINGER* Oil, is necessary to protect

the machine against rust damage. The areas that
should be cleaned and covered with a protective

coat of oil are shown in the illustration at the left.
