Safety Cautions:
Be sure that the electrical voltage of the wall outlet (wall receptacle) is the same as the rated voltage of the motor.
o Disconnect the power supply plug from the wall outlet when changing needles, presser foot or needle plate, or when leaving the machine unattended.
This eliminates the possibility of starting the machine by accidentally pressing the foot control.
All covers must be closed when operating the machine.
Do not pull the fabric while you are stitching as this may deflect the needle, causing it to break.
Before cleaning your machine, disconnect the power supply plug from the wall outlet.
Do not attempt to adjust the motor belt. Contact your nearest Service Center should any adjustment be required.
e Handle the foot control with care and avoid dropping it on the floor. Be sure not to place anything on top of it.
e Closely watch the area being sewn to avoid injuries from needles and knives.
® Use only the handle to lift and move the machine.
