Opstelling
1. Uitpak en Plasing

- Koppel die kragkabel aan die masjien en dan aan 'n geskikte elektriese aansluiting.
2. Die masjien inryg
Proper threading is crucial for consistent stitch quality.
- Plaas 'n spoel draad op die draadstaander.
- Guide the thread through the upper thread guides, following the numbered path indicated on the machine.
- Pass the thread through the tension discs and then through the take-up lever.
- Ryg die naald van voor na agter.
- Wind the bobbin and insert it into the bobbin case according to the machine's specific instructions for bobbin insertion.
- Pull the bobbin thread up through the needle plate opening.
Bedryfsinstruksies
1. Basic Sewing
- Turn on the machine's power switch.
- Plaas die stof onder die drukvoet.
- Lower the presser foot using the presser foot lifter.
- Gently press the foot pedal to start sewing. Guide the fabric smoothly.
- To secure the stitch, use the reverse lever at the beginning and end of your seam.
- When finished, raise the needle to its highest position, lift the presser foot, and pull the fabric away. Cut the threads.
2. Adjusting Stitch Length and Tension
- Steeklengte: Rotate the stitch length dial to increase or decrease the stitch length. Higher numbers indicate longer stitches.
- Draadspanning: Adjust the upper thread tension dial. A balanced stitch will have both threads meeting evenly between the fabric layers. If the bobbin thread appears on top, increase upper tension. If the upper thread appears on the bottom, decrease upper tension.
Onderhoud
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and extends the life of your sewing machine.
- Skoonmaak: Regularly clean lint and dust from the bobbin area, feed dogs, and tension discs using a small brush or vacuum cleaner. Always disconnect power before cleaning.
- Smering: Refer to the machine's lubrication points diagram and apply a few drops of high-quality sewing machine oil to designated areas periodically, typically after every 8-10 hours of use.
- Naaldvervanging: Replace the needle frequently, especially when sewing different fabric types or if the needle becomes dull or bent. A dull needle can cause skipped stitches or fabric damage.
- Berging: When not in use, cover the machine to protect it from dust. Store in a dry, temperate environment.
