CAUTION
When threading, replacing needle or light bulb, the main power and light switch of the machine must be

When the machine is not in use, it is recommended that the electric supply plug is disconnected from the
wall socket to avoid any possible hazards.
Notes on the motor
- The maximum operating speed of this sewing machine is 1,300 stitches per minute, which is quite fast compared to
the normal operating speed of 300 to 800 stitches per minute for the ordinary foot-operated sewing machine.
- The bearings in the motor are made of a special sintered, oil-impregnated alloy mounted in oilsoaked felt to withstand
long hours of continuous operation.
- Continuous operation of the sewing machine can cause heat to build in the motor area, but not enough to adversely
affect its performance.
It is important to keep fabric and paper away from the air openings on the back and sides of the machine so air can
get to these openings.
- When the motor is running, sparks can be seen through the air openings in the motor bracket on the side opposite the
hand wheel. These sparks are produced by the carbon brushes and the commutator, and are part of the machines
normal operation.
