■ Oiling the needle bars
From embroidering screen, select one needle bar at

the handwheel counterclockwise bringing the
needle bar to its lowest position. Put one drop of oil,
as high as possible on the needle bar above the felt
washer.

Note
• Put a drop of oil onto the hook once a day
before use.
• Apply one drop of oil on the lower needle
bar above the felt washer every 40 – 50
hours of sewing time.
• Apply only sewing machine oil. Use of any
other type of oil may result in damage to the
embroidery machine.

may get contaminated. If too much oil is
