PREPARING TO SEW

Have take-up lever at highest point before starting to sew. Do not try to help the feeding

by pulling the material as this may deflect the needle and cause it to break.

NEVER run machine without material under presser foot.

place material and threads in position under the presser foot and lower the presser foot. You

are now ready to begin sewing. By having the needle at its highest point, it is not necessary

to touch the hand wheel to start the machine. You merely press the control. The speed of the
machine is regulated by increasing or decreasing the amount of pressure exerted on the control.

REMOVING THE WORK

Be sure to stop the machine

when the thread take-up lever and

needle bar are at the highest po­
sition.

Now raise the presser foot and

draw the fabric back and to the

left (Fig. 21, A and B) and pass
the threads over the thread cutter.

Pull down slightly, holding thread

in both hands, so as not to bend

the needle.

Leave the ends of thread under

the presser foot.
