of sewing, the below-stated cleaning should be carried out.

the hook with the

2) Open the hook cover. Blow cloth dust and thread
waste off of the thread clamp by blowing air
through the clearance between the throat plate
base and the hook with an air gun or the like.
Cloth dust is likely to gather in the circled section
in the gure. Carefully blow cloth dust off of that
section, in particular.
