needle plates, or when leaving the machine unattended. This eliminates
the possibility of starting the machine by accidentally pressing the speed

controller.

3. Because of the up and down movement of the needle, you must work

carefully and watch the sewing area when operating the machine.

4. Do not pull the fabric while you are stitching as this may deflect the

needle, causing it to break.

5. Before cleaning your machine, remove plug from the socket outlet.

Center or an authorized Singer dealer should any adjustment be

required.

the plug or adaptor or at the distribution board.
