Cleaning

the

Machine

During

sewing,

lints

or

dust

will

collect,

especially

around

the

shuttle,

arid

may

hinder

the

smooth

running

of

the

machine.

The

frequent

removal

of

such

remnants

is

therefore

essential.

Take

off

the

throat

plate

from

time

to

time

and

remove

the

fluff

that

has

gathered

below

it.

The

removal

of

the

throat

plate

is

very

simple,

for

there

are

no

screws

to

slacken.

Just

open

the

hinged

shuttle

cover

and

push

the

throat

plate

up

with

a

finger

of

the

left

hand.

Oiling

the

Machine

Oil

the

machine

frequently,

but

not

too

heavily.

A

few

drops

of

oil

are

sufficient

to

keep

the

machine

running

smoothly.

If

too

much

oil

is

applied,

the

excess

will

drain

off

unused

and

may

stain

the

fabric.

Always

oil

the

machine

before

use

and

not

after

it.

Use

clear

sewing

machine

oil

only,

free

of

resin

and

acid.

If

oil

of

inferior

quality

is

employed,

it

may

get

sticky

when

it

dries

and

the

machine

will

run

hard.

show

the

points

where

the

are

and

the

Open

as

well

the

hinged

shuttle

cover

at

the

front

of

the

free

arm

and

oil

the

shuttle

race

from

time

to

time

at

Careful

and

correct

oiling

will

insure

easy

running

and

prevent

unnecessary

wear

of

the

parts.
