Additional, Hints, Oiling

Page 61 highlights

It is natural that most of the lint and thread ends settle down in the hook area and in the feed assembly, causing the machine to run noisier. Take out the bob bin case or, respectively, unscrew the needle plate to do the necessary cleaning. The hook of your machine is so designed that it will not cause trouble even if the machine is improperly operated. If it still happens that threads get caught in the hook race, turn the handwheel a few times back and forth. If necessary, apply a few drops of paraffin to the hook and simul taneously turn the hook with your left hand and the handwheel with your right hand back and forth in the correspon dingly same direction, and the machine will again run smoothly. Additional Hints for Oiling and Cleaning Apply only one or two drops of oil to every oiling point. Oil systematically; it is suggested to start with the oiling points in the arm, after taking off the needle plate. 63
