11. Care
After each use, remove any pieces of
thread, material, and fluff. Only in this
way will you ensure that the sewing
machine continues to work correctly
and lasts for a long time.
ƽ Warning!:
Before carrying out any maintenance
work on the sewing machine, first pull
the plug out of the power socket. This
will prevent the risk of accidents due to
the machine being started unintention-
ally.
a) Clean the gripper area
ƽ Important!
Never disassemble any of the mechani-
cal parts at the gripper. Extensive expe-
rience with mechanical devices is
required in order to reassemble these.
Only Customer Service has the special
equipment necessary for disassembling
the gripper mechanisms. It should be
enough for the user just to clean this
area with a brush or vacuum cleaner.
First raise the needle fully, by turning
the handwheel.
Open the gripper cover
Take out the bobbin.
Clean away all dirt with a brush or a
vacuum cleaner (fitted with a brush
attachment).
b) Clean the feeder
Take out the needle.
Take out the sew foot, as described
in Chapter 8.
Remove the screws from the stitch
plate and take out the stitch plate.
You can now clean the feeder.
