SINGER 610U - Manual (Page 40)

-i f y
Your sewing machine is a fine yet sturdy precision
instrument, and it will serve you perfectly for many
years if you take a few simple steps to keep it in
good working condition.
How often you will need to clean, oil, and lubricate
the machine will depend on how often you use it and
where you keep it.
When in regular use, the machine should be cleaned
periodically to remove lint and fluff which may have
accumulated around working parts.
With a soft doth, clean:
• Tension discs
• Take-up lever and thread guides
• Presser bar and needle bar
• Bobbin case (for instructions on removal, see page 39)
» Machine arm and bed
If necessary, dampen the cloth to clean the machine
surface. Do not use detergents.
With a lint brush, dean:
• Feed dog
• Rotating hook (area under throat plate and slide plate)
After each cleaning, apply a drop {but no more than
a drop) of SINGER oil to the areas indicated. Then
sew a line of stitching on a scrap of material to remove
excess oil.
APPLY A DROP OF OIL TO EACH SPOT SHOWN
