Care of the machine

(continued)

The sewing machine oil is seal-


ed in a plastic packet inside the
oiler. Screw off the oiler tube,
slip a hole in the packet with
scissors, and then screw the
oiler tube tightly in place again.
To refill the oiler, replace the
old oil packet with a new one,
or simply fill the oiler in the
usual manner.

IMPORT ANT. Since oil has a


tendency to seep out at screw
threads, etc., the can should
not be stored horizontally once
the bulb has been opened.

The throat plate should occa-


sionally be removed and the
teeth of the feed dog brushed
clean.

In order to prevent flocking,


the bobbin case and shuttle
should also be cleaned when-
ever necessary. This should pre-
ferably be done whenever you
change the colour of thread and
fabric.

Changing the light bulb


A projection to lower the lamp
is found on the left side of the
lamp guard. Lower the lamp
and press it inward at the same
time as you turn it counter-
clockwise.

When inserting a new lamp


bulb, press it into the holder as
far as the stop and turn it clock-
