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 round the working
parts. To clean the bobbin case area, see instruc
tions for removing and replacing bobbin case on
pages 88 and 89. Oil the machine after each clean
ing as instructed on pages 90, 91 and 92.
If the machine is to be stored away for an inde
finite period of time, a thorough brush-cleaning 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.
