clockwise direction (away from you)
2. Raise the presser foot (F) by lifting up on the
lever on the rear at the machine above the
presser foot bor.

direction two full turns to lock and start seam
stop.

turning the handwheel (K) slightly in a
clockwise direction.
11. Raise presser foot (F) by lifting the pressor
foot lever (G).
12. Pull fabric toward you leaving about 5-10
inches of thread between the fabric and the
machine.
13. Cut thread close to fabric. leaving excess
thread loosely lying on the sewing deck in the
direction of the presser foot (F) and toward
you.

in against the needle clamp (P)
5. Push it gently as far up as it will go, and
against the needle clamp (P)
6. Tighten the needle clamp screw (O) while
holding the needle (R) in place.
Note: Needles come in various sizes designated
by numbers. They designate the left of the

bobbin, wind the thread severaI turns around
the INSIDE of the bobbin
6. Place the bobbin on the bobbin pin, making
certain that the thread Is winding onto the
bobbin in a counter-cockwise direction. (This
