SECTION VIII - Taking Care of Your Machine

Your machine has been meticulously designed and
manufactured to give you a lifetime of sewing pleasure.
Do not store the machine in a high humidity area, near a
heat radiator or in direct sunlight. The machine is self-
lubricating, however, the area around the bobbin and
hook must be cleaned each time the machine has had
extensive use. Do not dismantle the machine further than
explained on these pages. Clean the outside of the
machine with a soft cloth and pure soap.

Cleaning the Bobbin Area

Loose threads and dust may cause puckered stitches
and thread breakage during stitching. Check for lint
buildup after each project is completed.
Press the "Up/Down Needle" key until the needle is
raised. Turn off power switch. Unplug the machine before
cleaning.
