● After the lubrication, turn the handwheel by hand to allow the oil to spread in the whole hook.
● For daily use, lubricate the sewing machine once a day.
● After unpacking or after the sewing machine remained unused for an extended period of time, apply a larger quantity of oil (ve
to seven drops) than usual. If the quantity of oil is excessive, oil can drop on the material. Take care not to apply an excessive
quantity of oil to the needle bar and the hook section.
