Your sewing machine was built to exacting

standards of precision and workmanship. Its per
formance depends on the care and treatment it
receives when in use and before storing it away.

When in regular use, the machine should be

cleaned periodically to remove the lint and fluff
which may have accumulated around the work
ing parts. To clean the bobbin case area, see in
structions for removing and replacing bobbin
case on

pages 87

and

88.

Oil the machine after

each cleaning as instructed on

pages 89, 90

and

91.

If the machine is to be stored away for an in

definite period of time, a thorough brush-clean

ing to remove all traces of lint and fluff, followed
by swabbing of all exposed parts with a lint-free
brush saturated with SINGER* Oil, is necessary
to protect the machine against rust damage. The
areas that should be cleaned and covered with a

protective coat of oil are shown in the illustration
at the left.
