MAINTENANCE

Simple sewing machine maintenance operations are described below.

surface
If the surface of the machine is dirty, lightly soak a
cloth in neutral detergent, squeeze it out firmly, and
then wipe the surface of the machine. After cleaning
it once with a wet cloth, wipe it again with a dry
cloth.

● Unplug the power supply cord before
cleaning the machine, otherwise injuries or an
electric shock may occur.
