After

raising

the

presser

foot,

run

the

machine

for

a

little

while

without

thread,

wipe

off

the

down-dripping

oil

and

apply

a

drop

of

PFAFF

Sewing

Machine

Oil

to

all

points

where

there

is

friction.

Make

it

a

rule

to

clean

and

oil

the

machine

from

time

to

time,

especially

when

it

has

been

in

constant

use,

or

has

not

been

used

for

ci

long

time.

VERY

IMPORTANT:

Before

using

the

machine

for

the

first

time,

apply

to

the

hook

a

drop

of

PFAFF

Sewing

Machine

Oil.

Keep

the

oil

can

clean.

The

needle

plate

should

be

token

off

frequently

and

cleaned

of

accumulated

fluff

on

the

underside.

Ill.

The

needle

If

the

needle

is

inserted

incorrectly,

the

top

thread

will

jam

in

the

hook,

and

tear.

The

correct

way

to

install

the

needle

is

with

the

flat

of

the

shank

toward

the

hand

lift.

In

general,

follow

this

simple

rule:

Use

a

finer

needle

for

finer

thread

and

a

heavier

needle

for

heavier

thread.

IV.

Feeding

If

the

material

does

not

feed

(move),

turn

presser

bar

pressure

screw

to

the

right

to

increase

the

pressure.

There

should

be

as

little

pressure

as

possible

on

the

presser

bar—use

just

enough

to

feed

the

material.

Too

much

pressure

causes

excessive

wear

in

feeder

and

foot.

When

in

doubt,

call

in

qualified

PFAFF

mechanic.

IMPORTANT—When

inserting

a

new

needle,

make

sure

that

the

needle

thumb

screw

is

loose

enough

to

permit

you

to

slide

the

needle

all

the

way

up

to

the

stop

pin,

then

tighten

the

thumb

screw.

If

the

needle

is

not

inserted

in

this

way,

it

will

cause

SKIPPING

of

stitches,

and

pos

sible

needle

breakage.

1.

Threading

needle

Put

spool

on

spindle,

draw

back

on

its

hinges.

Open

To

remove

the

bobbin,

release

latch

again

and

the

bobbin

will

drop

Practice

a

few

times,

so

as

to

get

used

to

this

operation.

4.

To

wind

the

bobbin

(Fig.

6)

For

beginners

it

is

suggested

that

the

balance

wheel

be

disconnected

so

that

the

machine

will

not

turn.

For

experienced

operators,

the

balance

wheel

can

remain

connected

if

desired

so

that

a

bobbin

can

be

wound

while

sewing

on

a

garment.

Wind

thread

around

the

bobbin

a

couple

of

times

away

from

you.

Place

bobbin

on

winder

spindle

so

that

the

single

slot

fits

into

the

pin

in

the

side

of

the

winder

spindle.

Place

spool

of

thread

1

on

either

spool

holder

(1).

Draw

thread

down

between

tension

disc

to

the

bobbin

placed

on

winder

spindle

3.

Press

down

on

winder

catch

4

to

lock

bobbin

in

winding

position.

Now

you

are

ready

to

wind

bobbin.

Turn

on

power

until

bobbin

is

wound.

If

you

do

not

wish

to

wind

the

bobbin

to

capacity,

press

winder

disconnect

lever
