TO SEW CHAIN STITCH SEAM


*Sewing

preparation:

Single-thread chansttching looks like regular staight stitching on top, but is a saries of interlocking loops on the underside of the fabric. Because the stitches are formed by only upper thread, the stitches unravel easily with just a pull on, the thread end. Cliainstitclling will bth found useful in wide range for suci sewing jobs as basting, embroidery, fastening re1 movable trimming such as collars and cuffs, etc.

TO KEEP YOUR MACHINE IN THE BEST CONDITION TO OIL MACHINE

To ensure easy and free running of the machine, it is necessary that all moving parts be covered with a filim of oi. In normal use, apply fine quality sewing machine oil to the points indicated by the arrows in the figures once a week In constant use, oil the machine every 7 to 10 hours. Oiling is particularly necessary after the machine has been standing idle for some time. After oiling, run the machine rapidly for a few minutes to allow the oil to penetrate every part.
