Drift

1. Valg af en søm:

Refer to the stitch selector dial (as shown in the "Stitch Selector Dial" image in the Product Overview section). Rotate the dial to choose your desired stitch pattern. The machine offers 11 stitch options, including straight stitches, zigzag stitches, and a four-step buttonhole.

2. Adjusting Thread Tension:

The thread tension dial (as shown in the "Thread Tension Dial" image) controls the tightness of the upper thread. For most general sewing, a setting between 3 and 5 is appropriate. Adjust as needed to achieve balanced stitches where the upper and lower threads interlock evenly between the fabric layers.

3. Begynd at sy:

1. Placer stoffet under trykfoden, og juster kanten med den ønskede sømrumsguide på stingpladen.
2. Sænk trykfodshåndtaget.
3. Turn the handwheel towards you to bring the needle down into the fabric at the starting point.
4. Gently press the foot controller to begin sewing. The speed of sewing is controlled by the pressure applied to the foot controller.
5. Guide the fabric gently with both hands, ensuring it feeds smoothly. Do not pull or push the fabric forcefully.

4. Baglæns syning:

To secure the beginning and end of a seam, use the reverse stitch lever (typically located on the front of the machine). Press and hold the lever to sew backward a few stitches, then release to continue sewing forward.

5. Finishing a Seam:

Opretholdelse

1. Cleaning the Machine:

• Tag altid stikket ud af maskinen før rengøring.
• Fjern nålen og trykfoden.
• Fjern stingpladen og spolehuset.
• Use a small brush (often included with the machine) to remove lint and dust from the feed dogs and bobbin area.
• Tør maskinens yderside af med en blød, tør klud. Brug ikke skrappe kemikalier eller slibende rengøringsmidler.

2. Oiling (if applicable):

Consult your machine's specific instructions regarding oiling. Many modern sewing machines are self-lubricating in key areas and do not require regular user oiling. If oiling is recommended, use only high-quality sewing machine oil in the designated points. Over-oiling can cause issues.

3. Udskiftning af nål:

• Replace the needle regularly, especially after 8-10 hours of sewing or if it becomes bent or dull.
• Løsn nålen clamp screw, remove the old needle, and insert a new one with the flat side facing the back of the machine.
• Spænd nålen clamp skrue sikkert.
