Sewing

Basic sewing operations are described below.
Before operating the sewing machine, read the following precautions.

●

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 balance wheel, 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.

CAUTION
