triable
to
be
dragged
down
into
the
shuttle
path
and
broken
and
it
may then be
necessary
to
clean
the
shuttle
path
of
pieces
of
thread before
sewing
can be started
again.
Never
keep
the
machine
running
without
having material
under
the
presser
foot,
once
it
is
let
down.
\7hen
altering
the
direction
of
sewing,
at a
corner, for
example,
let
the
needle
remain
in
the
material,
lift up
the
presser
foot,
and swing
the
piece
of
work
round the
needle.
\[hen
sewing
is
finished
and
the
material
is
to
be
taken
out
of
the
machine,
this
should
be done
with
the
needle bar
and take-up
lever
in
their
higheit
position.
Move the
ma-
terial
to

The
presser
foot
is
jointed
in
order that
it
shall be
able to
glide easily
across
thick
seams
and uneven
surfaces.
*When
sewing,
the
machine can
be
used
with or
without
the
work
table"
The
free arm facilitates
sewing,
as
the
gar-
ment
can
be
drawn
on
to
the
arm.
Oiling and cleaning the
machine"
In
order
to
ensure
ens/:
smooth
and
silent
running,
and to
minimise
the
wear,
oiling
must be carefully
attended
to
in
all
places
where
there
is
f
riction
between
moving
parts.
It
is
important
to
remove
odd
ends
of
thread and
fluff
that
may
have
fastened
under
the
feed
motion
and between
the
teeth.
This
can be
done
most
conveniently
with
the
brush
supplied
in
the
apparatus
case.
IJnscrew
the
throat
platc,
therefore, and brush
the
feed
motion
clean.
The
shuttle
bearing
path, Fig"

be oiled
frr'
quently
but
very
sparingly

time"
