Note: It is essential that threading both the top and bottom be done properly.
Check carefully, and do one practice stich before beginning to sew. Improper
threading will damage the lockstitch.
Adjusting tension
1. You should not need to adjust tension as the factory has already adjusted it
for maximum performance. However, if you find that stitches are too loose or
too tight, you can adjust the stich.
2. Loosen stich by turning the Tension Adjusting Screw (L) counter clockwise (to
the left).
3. Tighten the stich by turning the Tension Adjusting Screw (L) clockwise. Sewing
heavier fabric may require loosening the stich. Very light fabric may require
tightening the stich. Bobbin tension cannot be adjusted.
Changing the needle
1. Turn the Hand Wheel (W) to raise the needle to its highest position.
2. Loosen the Needle Clamp Screw (R) by turning it counter clockwise (towards
you). You may need to use a short slotted screwdriver or small pliers.
3. Remove the Needle (E), pulling down, away from the Needle Clamp (G).
4. Place the new needle with the flat side facing in against the Needle Clamp (G).
5. Push it gently as far up as it will go, and against the Needle Clamp (G).
6. Tighten the Needle Clamp Screw (R) while holding the needle in place.
7. Note: Needles come in various sizes designated by numbers. They designate
the left of the needle. The smaller the number, the thinner the needle. Use
smaller needles for more delicate fabrics and larger needles for heavier
fabrics.
8. Note: The needles currently provided with this sewing machine are 3.8cm.
*Additional bobbins, needles and needle threaders can be purchased at a local craft
store. Please be sure any additional bobbins you may purchase are the exact same
style.

Helpful hints / cleaning and maintenance
15
Helpful hints
1. To replace batteries, remove the Battery Compartment Cover (T) and insert
new batteries. Pay close attention to the polarity and make sure the batteries
are inserted properly as the machine will not function and it could cause
damage to the machine. Place the Battery Compartment Cover back on the
battery compartment.
2. To turn the light on or off, press the Light Button (O).
3. Always check the threading of the lockstitch before beginning to sew a seam.
Improper threading or placement of bobbin can result in damage to the
machine.
4. Do not pull on fabric as you sew. Gently guide fabric only. Pulling fabric can
break the needle and result in damage to the machine.
5. Keep extra batteries nearby while working on projects so they are not
interrupted when batteries need to be replaced.
6. Safety Instruction regarding changing batteries:
a. Open the battery compartment lid.
b. Remove old AA batteries from compartment.
c. Insert 3 new AA batteries, ensuring that + and –match for
polarity.
d. Do NOT mix old and new batteries.
e. Do not mix alkaline, standard (carbon-zinc), or rechargeable (ni-
cad, nimh, etc.) batteries
f. Close the battery compartment lid.
