FEED DOG CONTROL
The feed dog control is located on the right front of the machine
bedplate. There are a few times when you want to control the
feeding of the fabric yourself. When the control is turned to the left,
the feed dogs drop and do not move the fabric.
For most of your sewing the feed dog control is turned to "'U".
(Feed dog up)
SEWING LIGHT
The light and power switch shown above in Fig. 1 provides the
electric current for the motor as well as the light. In order to operate
the machine this switch must be on.
To turn on the light, depress the switch. If you are interrupted while
sewing and must leave the machine unattended, just turn off the
switch and the machine cannot be started accidentally.
The sewing light is located inside the face cover plate as shown.
To replace the bulb, turn light off, and swing the face cover plate
open. Push up on the bulb slightly and turn bulb to the left.
