This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade wider than
the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is
intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not fit in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not
fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet.
Do not modify the plug in any way.

Sewing Machine Model 385.16020XXX (XXX represents
numbers OOO through 999).
Controlling Sewing Speed
Sewing speed is varied by the foot control.
The harder you press on the foot control, the faster the
machine runs.
