To run the machine,

press the foot operated speed controller.

The speed controller has an electronic circuit which provides

constant speed when sewing on fabrics of varying density in
either speed range. You may also set your own speed for
sewing on delicate, light or heavy fabric. The

harder you

press,

the

faster

the machine will sew within the selected speed

range. The

lighter you

press, the

slower the

machine will sew

within the selected speed range.

Note:

Your machine has a built-in fuse which protects its

electronic brain. If the machine does not operate (stitch selector
lights do not light up) after making electrical connections and

turning on switch, the fuse may need to be replaced. Contact
your local Singer Sewing Centre for additional information.

Lifting the Presser Foot

The presser-foot lifter

allows you to raise and lower the

presser foot. Extra-high lift position

permits easy placement

of bulky fabrics. Make sure the lifter is all the way down

before starting to sew.
