SEWING BASICS
Sewing
CAUTION
• While the machine is in operation, pay special
attention to the needle location. In addition,
keep your hands away from all moving parts
such as the needle and handwheel, otherwise
injuries may occur.
• Do not pull or push the fabric too hard while
sewing, otherwise injuries may occur or the
needle may break.
• Never use bent needles. Bent needles can
easily break, possibly resulting in injuries.
• Make sure that the needle does not strike
basting pins, otherwise the needle may break
or bend.
Note
• First, perform a trial sewing, using a piece of fabric and
thread that are the same as those used for your project.
CAUTION
• Always use the appropriate presser foot. If the
wrong presser foot is used, the needle may
strike the presser foot and bend or break,
possibly resulting in injury.
Refer to “Stitch Chart” on page 33 for presser
foot recommendations.
