Welcome

the modern,
efficient

booklet.
Your

machine
is
very versatile,
and we
would
like
to
tell
you
about
all the
wonderful
things
you
can
create
with it.
We
suggest
that
you
thumb
through
the
booklet
first
and then open
it
at pages
2 and
3, where
the
most
essential parts
of
your
machine
are
illustrated.
By
identifying
these
parts
on
your
machine,
you
will
quickly
familiarize
yourself
with your
Pfaff.
We
recommend that
you
study
these
sewing
instructions
carefully,
and
hope that
sewing
with your
Pfaff will
always be
a
pleasure.

eort,
you
start
winding
the bobbin remember
that
you
need
two
threads
to
sew
a
seam:
an
upper
and
a
lower
thread.
These
two
threads
are
locked
together
in
the middle
of
the fabric to
form
a
lock
stitch.
The
seam
produced
in
this
way
is
illustrated
below.
If
your
seam
doesnt
look
like
the illustration,
turn
to page

To
wind
the bobbin,
turn
the
machine
on
by
pushing button

Make
sure the
sewing
mechanism
is
disengaged.
