To install a new upper tension assembly on a Singer Style-Mate 347, follow these steps:
1. Unplug the Machine: Always unplug the sewing machine before starting any repairs.
2. Remove the Old Tension Assembly: - Locate the upper tension assembly on the front of the machine. - Loosen and remove the tension knob by unscrewing it. - Remove the tension discs, spring, and any washers. - Carefully pull out the tension unit from the front.
3. Prepare the New Tension Assembly: - Lay out the new parts in order: tension stud, tension discs, tension spring, check spring (if present), and knob.
4. Install the New Assembly: - Insert the tension stud into the hole where the old one was removed. - Place the tension discs on the stud, with the concave sides facing each other. - Add the tension spring and check spring in proper order. - Screw on the tension knob to hold everything in place.
5. Adjust Tension: - Turn the knob to adjust the tension setting. - Test the machine with thread to ensure proper tension (usually between 3–5 for normal sewing).
6. Secure and Test: - Make sure all parts are tight and aligned. - Plug in the machine and test sew to verify correct tension operation.
Use the manual for part orientation if needed.

The Singer Style-Mate 347 does not have a separate power switch to turn on the light. The light turns on automatically when the machine is plugged in and the foot controller is connected. To use the light, ensure the machine is plugged into a power source and the foot pedal is properly attached.

To oil the Singer Style-Mate 347 sewing machine, follow these steps:
1. Unplug the machine before starting. 2. Remove the needle plate, presser foot, and bobbin case to access internal parts. 3. Open the top cover (lift-off or screw-secured) to access the upper threading and moving parts. 4. Apply sewing machine oil (only approved sewing machine oil, not household oil) to the following areas: - Needle bar (where it moves up and down) - Presser foot bar - Moving joints and levers under the top cover - Bobbin area: lightly oil the hook race (where the bobbin case sits) - Motor and belt area if accessible and specified in the manual
5. Turn the handwheel manually after oiling to distribute the oil. 6. Wipe off excess oil with a soft cloth. 7. Test the machine on scrap fabric to ensure smooth operation and avoid oil stains.
Oil sparingly—too much oil can attract lint and dirt. Regular oiling intervals depend on usage, but generally after every 8–10 hours of sewing.
