Insert the power cord plug into a wall outlet, and turn on the power switch. (The motor will operate and the machine pulley will turn.) 2. Check that the machine pulley is turning in the direction of the arrow (1). * If the machine pulley is turning in the opposite direction, change the direction of turning while referring to the instruction manual for the motor. 3. Depress the pedal to start the sewing machine. 4. Release the pedal quickly. (The machine will operate for a set number of stitches only, after the thread is trimmed, and then the presser arm will lift up and the sewing machine will stop.) 5. Repeat the operations in steps 3 and 4 several times. 1977M 7. TURNING THE MACHINE PULLEY BY HAND CAUTION Turn off the power switch before carrying out this operation. The machine may operate if the pedal is pressed by mistake, which could result in injury. * The motor will keep turning even after the power is switched off as a result of the motor's inertia. Wait until the motor stops fully before starting work. When turning the machine pulley by hand in order to check the needle down position in the hole of the button, turn the pulley until the needle is at the final position after one cycle. If the needle is at a point midway through the cycle when the power is turned on, the machine will immediately start operating, which could result in injury. Push down 1.
