Oiling
the Machine
Unplug the machine. Open the face cover and oil the two
points, as shown, at least once a year. One or two drops of
oil is sufficient. Remove excess oil, otherwise it may stain the
fabric. In case the machine has not been used for a long
period, oil it before sewing. Use quality sewing machine oil.
