Needles and thread

For perfect stitching, thread should be selected according to the fabric to be stitched.
Also the needle must be correct size for thread which must pass freely through the eye of the needle.

 

 

To set the needle

Select needle according to the table on page 64.
Be sure that the needle is not blunt or bent.
Raise the needle bar to its highest position and loosen thumb screw H in needle clamp.
Push needle with its flat side to the left up into needle clamp as far as it will go, then tighten thumb screw.
As the needle is self setting, it cannot be inserted incorrectly in the needle clamp.

 

 

To thread bobbin case

Hold bobbin so that thread will unwind in direction shown in figure 11.
Hold bobbin case as shown in figure 11, and placed bobbin into it.
Pull thread into slot 1, under tension spring 2 and into slot 3 at the end of the spring.
Allow about 3 inches of thread to hang free from the bobbin case

 

 

To regulate length of Stitch

The machine is adjustable to make from 6 to 30 stitches per inch, as indicated by the numerals on the Stitch indicator plate X.

To change length of stitch turn thumb screw on the stitch regulator lever Y away from the stitch indicator X, as far as necessary.

Then move the stitch regulator lever until it is in line with the desired number of stitches to the inch and turn the thumb screw inward only until it touches the stitch indicator plate.

The machine will now make the indicated number of stitches to the inch in either a forward or reverse direction, depending upon whether the lever Y is at its lowest or highest position.
