SEWING BASICS
Starting to Sew
Basic sewing operations are described below.
Before operating the sewing machine, read the following precautions.
Sewing procedure
The basic sewing procedure is shown below.
●
While the machine is in operation, pay special attention to the needle. In addition, keep your hands
away from all moving parts such as the needle, handwheel, and thread take-up lever, 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.
●
Use the correct presser foot for the type of stitch that you wish to sew, otherwise the needle may hit the
presser foot, causing the needle to bend or break.
●
When sewing, make sure that the needle does not strike basting pins, otherwise the needle may break or
bend.
●
Before replacing the presser foot, be sure to turn off the sewing machine, otherwise injuries may occur
if the start/stop button is accidentally pressed and the machine starts sewing.
