Cleaning
After use, wipe the exterior surface of your machine and the touch screen with a soft and damp cloth to remove any dust or lint
built up.
Cleaning the Looper Area
Turn off the main power switch and unplug the machine.
Open the front cover.
With a forward brushing movement, use the lint brush to
remove any lint.
Note: You may use a vacuum cleaner to clean the upper knife area or
feed teeth.

Sewing Position
Use the looper threading wire to clean the pipe of the looper
threader device.
Set the Threading/Sewing lever to "Threading" position by
sliding it to the left.
Turn the handwheel slowly toward you until it will click and
is locked in threading position.
Take the looper threading wire and push the straight end (not
the loop end) through the looper threader hole until it comes
out from the hole of the looper tip (A).
Use a 60wt thread about 24" (60cm) long to clean the looper
threader pipes. Pass the thread through the loop of the
looper threading wire until the loop is at the halfway point of
the thread (B).
Carefully pull the end of the looper threading wire until the
thread comes out from the hole of the looper tip (C).
Pull the thread until it is all the way through the threader pipe.
Repeat the above procedure 2-3 times.
With the machine unthreaded, push the looper threader
button 4-5 times to clean out the remaining lint (D).
Set the Threading/Sewing lever to "Sewing" position.
Close the front cover.
Note:
Clean the looper threader pipe once every 10 hours of use or when the
looper threader does not work well.
You can also use an compressed air duster or camera dust blower to
clean the looper threader pipe.
