LUBRICATING THE MACHINE
How often you need to lubricate the machine depends on how often you use it and
where you keep it. The following general guidelines assume that you will be sewing
several times a week. But if you use your machine more frequently, lubricate it more
often than the guidelines suggest.
Before lubricating, make sure you
have disconnected power-line plug
and thoroughly cleaned all areas as
previously instructed.
Approximately once a year, lubricate
all moving connections, as shown, to
ensure freedom of movement and to
protect metal parts from excessive
wear.
To determine which connections
move and need lubrication, turn the
handwheel slowly, by hand, while face
plate is removed.
When lubricating, apply only Singer
oil at the points shown. Singer oil is
specially prepared and does not con
tain harmful deposits that can interfere
with the smooth action of precision
parts.
