2. DESCRIPTION
Embroidery machine makes the braiding stitch and also can make the single
thread chainstitch, the tape attaching, the ray stitch and pile or moss stitch. It is
designed for ornamenting or embroidering ladies’ cloaks and suits, millinery,
uniforms, draperies, table cover, etc.
The read may be of cotton, wool, worsted, silk, metal and other threads of similar
adaptability. A large variety of fabrics can be embroidered, ranging from fine chiffon
to china silk and cloth.
The usual method of producing embroidered designs is to follow a pattern that
has been perforated, stamped or traced on the fabric, but with practice the operator
can produce embroidery designs without premarking the fabric.
3. SPEED
When first operating this machine, the best results can be obtained by running
the machine approximately 800 stitches per minute. The speed can be increased
as the operator becomes more proficient and nature of the work permits.

4. TO OIL THE MACHINE (Fig. 1, 2, 11 & 12)
To insure easy running and prevent unnecessary wear of the parts which are in
movable contact, the machine requires oiling.
Oil should be applied to the places designated by unlettered arrows in Fig.
1,2,11and 12.

Fig. 2 shows the arm cover removed for the purpose of oiling. This arm cover can
be removed after taking out thumb screw, Fig. 10. If the machine is used
continuously, oil should be applied at least once each day.
5. NIPPLES, NIPPLES AND THREAD (Fig. 3)
Needles for embroidery machine are system 137 x 1 and are available in sizes
from 1 to 12. These needles have hooks similar in appearance to those of hand
crochet needles.
The needle must be selected according to the thickness and the style of the
thread to be used. The thread must not only fill the opening of the hook in the
needle but must slide freely therein.
To correspond with the needle used in the machine a suitable nipple must be
selected, as the needle in forming the stitch has to operate through the nipple. The

needle must fit in the nipple and slide freely without side play. Nipples are available
in size numbers similar to those of the needles, and for general work the number of
the nipple should be the same as that of the needle.
The nipples for embroidery machine are available in the following kinds, as per
Fig. 3.
(a): For chainstitch and moss stitch
(b): For tape attaching
(c): For braiding stitch and ray stitch
6. TO REMOVE, REPLACE AND SET NEEDLE AND NIPPLE (Fig. 4)
When it is necessary to change the needle and nipple on the machine, first select
another needle and corresponding nipple. Then lower the presser foot lifter (J),
loosen screw (B) and remove needle bar (A) and needle from top of machine.
Remove nipple holder (O), loosening screw by screwdriver.
Select the correct needle hole in needle plate (D).
NOTE: The needle hole should be slightly larger than the needle, so that the

needle, when laid around the needle, will have sufficient space to pass
without touching the sides of the needle hole.
Loosen thumb screw (L) and turn plate (D) until correct needle hole is in line with
needle, then tighten thumb screw (L).
Next, insert the selected nipple (N) into the lower part of nipple holder (O) and
tighten screw securely with the screwdriver, Insert the nipple holder (O) into the
nipple carrier (Fig. 3) and tighten screw securely. Screw selected needle into
needle bar (A) and tighten with pliers provided. Replace needle bar (A) down into
sleeve and adjust its height so that the fabric to be embroidered can just pass under
the point of the needle.
Be sure handle (K) is as far to the front as possible and that the hook of the
needle faces the front. Then tighten screw (B), which also should face the front.
NOTE: Do not tighten screw (B) except when needle bar (A) is in its place. If the
screw is tightened when needle bar (A) is not in its place, needle bar operating
collar is transformed and needle bar does not enter into the collar.

7. TO THREAD THE MACHINE (Figs. 5, 6 & 7)
1) For the thread (Figs. 5 & 6)
Place the cone of thread in a convenient position on the floor.
Three thread eyelets are furnished with the machine. These eyelets should be
fastened to the underside of the table as shown at (1), (2) and (3), Fig. 5. Eyelet (1)
should be located directly above the cone of thread.
Pass the thread up from the cone and through eyelets (1), (2) and (3), then
through hole (1), over between tension discs (5), through thread controller spring
(6). Turn handle (A), Fig. 6 to the front or slightly to the left, raise presser foot and
insert threading wire (B) in the forward hole (7) of needle plate. With the left hand,
catch thread on hook of threading wire (B) and draw wire and thread up through
hole needle plate. With the left hand, hold end of thread with a slight tension.

With the right hand, turn handle (A) straight to the left, having started the
machine, quickly bear down and up on handle (A) so the needle will pick up the
thread for one stitch. Keep handle (A) in same position and with the threading wire
(B), draw thread directly toward you, laying end of thread loosely on needle plate
after t comes up thread needle hole.
2) For the cord (Fig. 7)
Wind the cord on the cord spool , using the spool winder spindle on the
pulley. Place it on the cord spool bracket . Inter the cord into the top of needle
bar with the threading wire (large) and pass it below the end of nipple
carrier 6, then through to the hole of the nipple .
3) For the braid (Fig. 7)
Wind the braid on the braid spool , using the spool winder spindle on the
pulley. Place it on the braid spool bracket . Pass the braid through the braid
guide of the bracket and through the hole of the braid leader rod and
the hole of the braid leader bracket, then through the forward hole of the
braid leader guide.
Now the machine is ready for operation.
