Beginning to Sewing
1.
Position the Mini Sewing Machine on a flat, level surface such as a desk or table.
Sit directly in front of your Mini Sewing Machine. Turn the Hand Wheel toward you
one compete turn so that the needle is in an upward position.
2.
Lift the Presser Foot using the Lever located directly above and behind the Presser
Foot. See Figure 15.
3.
Place the fabric to be sewn under the Presser Foot and the needle above the area to
be stitched. Lower the Presser Foot. Turn the Hand Wheel one or two turns so needle
has engaged with fabric. With the power switch "On", gently begin to push down on
the Foot Pedal and sew. The fabric will automatically be pushed forward.
CAUTION: Use your fingers to guide the fabric but keep them away from the needle
while machine is "On".
4.
Start and stop sewing as needed for stitching straight or curved areas. After each stop,
begin sewing again by tuning the Hand Wheel and then using the Foot Pedal. You will
notice, by using the Foot Pedal, you can sew faster. But gauge your speed carefully.
For sewing right angles, stop the Foot Pedal with the needle still in the fabric. Lift the
Lever. Turn (pivot) your fabric to the desired angle. Lower the Lever and begin sewing
again using the Hand Wheel and then the Foot Pedal. Release the Foot Pedal when
the area you wish to stitch is completed.
5.
On completion turn Hand Wheel clockwise to lift needle. Lift Presser Foot with Lever
and push your fabric back and away from you. You will note that it is still attached by
the two threads (Bobbin thread and top thread). Cut thread leaving at least four inches
of thread coming from the Sewing Machine. Tie off your threads on your fabric to
prevent raveling. When all sewing is completed, turn "Off' the Mini Sewing Machine
and store in a safe, dry space, preferably with some kind of cover. Remember this is a
delicate, precise instrument.
Note: Be sure the Sewing Machine is in the "off" position when not in use. This wil prevent
accidently starting the machine with the Foot Pedal. Be sure children are kept away from the
Sewing Machine unless under supervision.
