When using the sewing machine, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following.
"Read all instructions before using."
DANGER – To reduce the risk of electric shock.
1. The sewing machine should never be left unattended when plugged in. Always unplug this sewing machine
from the electrical outlet immediately after using and before cleaning.
2. Always unplug before relamping. Replace bulb with same type rated 15 watts.

4. Never operate the sewing machine with any air openings blocked. Keep ventilation openings of the sewing
machine and foot controller free from the accumulation of lint, dust, and loose cloth.
5. Never drop or insert any object into any openings.
6. Do not use outdoors.
7. Do not operate where aerosol (spray) products are being used or where oxygen is being administered.

making any other user servicing adjustments mentioned in the instruction manual.
CAUTION – This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade wider than the other) to reduce the
risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.

Notes on the motor
•The normal operating speed of this sewing ma-
chine is 1,300 stitches per minute, which is quite
fast compared to the normal operating speed of
300 to 800 stitches per minute for the ordinary
foot-operated sewing machine.
•The bearings in the motor are made of a special
sintered, oil-impregnated alloy mounted in oil-
soakedfelt to withstandlong hours of continuous
operation.
•Continuousoperationofthesewing machinecan
cause heat to build in the motor area, but not
enough to adversely affect its performance.
Itisimportanttokeepfabricandpaperawayfrom
the ventilating holes on the back and sides of the
machine so air can get to these holes.
•When the motor is running, sparks can be seen
through the ventilating hole in the motor bracket
on the side opposite the hand wheel. These
sparks are produced by the carbon brushes and
the commutator, and are part of the machines
normal operation.
CAUTION
WHEN THREADING THE MACHINE, RE-
PLACING A NEEDLE, OR WHEN THE MA-
CHINE IS NOT IN USE, WE RECOMMEND
DISCONNECTING THE ELECTRIC SUPPLY

para poder funcionar continuamente durante
muchas horas.
• Un funcionamiento continuo de la máquina pue-
de contribuir a calentar algo la máquina en la
zona del motor, pero no lo suficiente como para
alterar su rendimiento y funcionamiento.
Sin embargo, es menester mantener los orificios

• Durante el funcionamiento del motor, se pueden
ver chispas a través del orificio de ventilación de
la abrazadera del motor, en el lado contrario a la

NOTE:
Two-needle models
•On two-needle models, we suggest you hold the
two needles with one hand and then insert them
both at the same time.
•If the needles have been inserted correctly, the
right needle should be set slightly lower than the
left one.
CAUTION
The needle set screw holds both needles.
Keep this in mind when you loosen the set
screw to exchange one or both needles.
