TO THREAD THE MACHINE Place the cone of thread in a convenient position on the floor. Three thread eyelets are furnished with machine. These eyel ets should be fastened to the underside of the t able as shown at 1, 2 and 3, Fig. 4. Eyelet 1 should be located directly above the cone of thread.
LEARNING TO OPERATE THE MACHINE NOTE: When in operation the machine pulley must always turn over away from operator. Mark a design (see Fig. 6) on a 12 inch square piece of cloth. Place cloth under presser foot so that needle will enter cloth at point 1.
TO REGULATE THE PRESSURE ON THE PRESSER FOOT The pressure on the presser foot i s regulated by the thumb screw C, Fig. 3. To increase the pressure, turn t he thumb screw over to the right or downward. To decrease the pressure, turn the thumb screw over to the lef t or upward.
TO ADJSUT THE LENGTH OF STITCH The length of stitch is adj usted by screw T, Fig 8. To lengthen the stitch, loosen locking l ever U and turn screw T over to the l eft or upward, then tighten locking lever U. To shorten the stitch, loosen lockin g lever U and turn the screw T over to the right or downward, then tighten locking lever U.
TO REGULATE THE PRESSURE ON THE NIPPLE The pressure on the nipple is regulated by the thumb screw P, Fig. 8 at the top of the machine. T o increase the pressure, turn this thumb screw over to the right or downward.
TO SET THE LOOPER Turn the machine back on it s hinges and turn handl e K, fig. 10 and wing screw B, Fig. 3 to the front. Loosen set screw X, Fig. 10 of the operating worm gear Y, and turn the gear slightly , until the notch in the looper is in its correct position as instructed above.
PILE OR MOSS STITCH The raised pile or moss stitch or produced by adjusting the machine so that it will drop the stitches in loose loops on the material. To accomplish this, turn handle K to the front , loosen the wing screw B, Fig.3 and turn the needle holder so that the hook of the needle will pint directly to the back of the machine, then tighten the wing sc rew.
