Before plugging in your machine, be sure

that the voltage and number of cycles
indicated on the plate under the hand

wheel conform to your electrical power

supply. .

CAUTION: Because of the up and

down movement of (he needle, you

must work carefully and watch the

sowing area when operating the
machirm. We recommend that you

switch off the power and light before

changing needles, pressor feet and

needle plates and when leaving the
machine unattended. This eliminates

the possibility of starting the machine

by accidentally pressing the speed

controller.
