INSTRUCTIONS FOR
OPERATING THE MACHINE
Raise the presser foot (B. Fig. 3) by means of
the presser bar lifter (C, Fig. 3) to prevent
injury to the foot (B. Fig. 3) and feed (A, Fig.
.3).
It is necessary to understand the stop motion
(D, Fig. 3) by which the balance wheel (E,
Fig. 3) can be released when required, thus
enabling the operator to become proficient in
the use of the treadle and permitting the
winding of bobbins without running the stitch-
ing mechanism. It also allows the operator to
wind bobbins without removing partially sewn
work and without unthreading the machine.
To release the balance wheel (E, Fig. 3) turn
the stop motion screw (D, Fig. 3, page 3)
over toward you. It may be necessary to hold
the balance wheel while loosening the stop
motion screw.
After releasing the balance wheel place your
feet upon the treadle and with the right hand,
turn the balance wheel over toward you. This
will start the band wheel, treadle and pitman,
the sewing mechanism having been discon-
nected.
FIG.3. FRONT VIEW OF THE MACHINE
Continue the motion thus begun by an alter-
nate pressure of heel and toe, until a regular
and easy movement is acquired, and the bal-
ance wheel kept in continuous rotation by use
of the feet alone.
When you are thoroughly familiar with the
treadle movement, and can restart the
machine without turning the balance wheel in
the wrong direction, tighten the stop motion
screw to connect the balance wheel with the
stitching mechanism.
Place a piece of cloth under the presser foot,
let the foot down upon it, and operate the
machine in this way without being threaded,
until you have become accustomed to guiding
the material.

To Ensure Perfect Action of the Machine
The balance wheel must always turn over
toward the operator.
Do not run the machine with the presser foot
resting on the feed without cloth under the
presser foot.
Do not run the machine when both bobbin
case and needle are threaded unless there is
material under the presser foot.
Do not try to help the machine by pulling the
fabric lest you bend the needle. The machine
feeds the work without assistance.
The slide over the bobbin case should be
kept closed when the machine is in operation.
FIG. 4. REMOVING THE BOBBIN
To Take Out the Bobbin
Draw to the left the slide in the bed of the
machine and press the forefinger of the right
hand upon the bobbin ejected as shown
above; this will raise the bobbin so that it can
be easily taken out.

To Wind the Bobbin
Release the balance wheel (E, Fig. 3, page
3) by turning the stop motion screw (D, Fig.
3, page 3) over toward you.
Place the bobbin on the bobbin winder spin-
dle (E, Fig. 6, page 7) and push it up closely
against the shoulder, having the small pin in
the spindle enter the hole in the side of the
bobbin. Put the spool of thread on the spool
pin (1, Fig. 5). Pass the end of the thread into
the thread guide (2, Fig. 5) then up into the
lower eyelet (3, Fig. 6) of the bobbin winder
thread guide, into the notch (4, Fig. 6) and
pass the thread through the hole in the left
side of the bobbin (5, Fig. 6) from the inside.
Press the bobbin winder pulley (B, FIG. 6)
down on the balance wheel hub and the latch
(C, Fig. 6) will drop down and hold it. Then
operate the treadle the same as for sewing.

To Wind the Bobbin continued...
The end of the thread must be held by the
hand unti1 a few coils are wound and should
then be broken off. Figs. 5 and 6 show the
bobbin winder properly threaded and in posi-
tion for winding. When sufficient thread has
been wound upon the bobbin it is automati-
cally released from the stop latch (C, Fig. 6).
If the pressure of the rubber ring (B, Fig. 6)
against the hub of the balance wheel is insuf-
ficient for winding the bobbin, loosen the
adjusting screw (D, Fig. 6) and press the bob-
bin winder lightly until the rubber ring is in
contact with the hub of the balance wheel;
then tighten the screw.

To Replace the Bobbin
Hold the bobbin between the thumb and fore-
finger of the left hand, the thread leading on
top from the right toward the left, as shown in
Fig. 7.
Place the bobbin into the bobbin case and
draw the thread into the slot (1, Fig. 8) in the
bobbin case, as shown below.
Draw the thread backward between the bob-
bin case and the tension spring until it reach-
es the notch (2, Fig. 9) then pull the thread
toward the right as shown in Fig. 9.
When closing the slide see that the thread is
in the slot (3, Fig. 10) in the right edge of the
slide, as shown below.

To Set the Needle
Turn the balance wheel over toward you until
the needle bar moves up to its highest point
in the sleeve (D, Fig. 5), loosen the thumb
screw (C, Fig. 5) in the needle clamp (B. Fig.
5) and put the needle up into the clamp as far
as it will go, with its flat side toward the right,
then tighten the thumb screw.
To Thread the Needle
SEE FIG. 11
Turn the balance wheel over toward you until
the thread take-up lever (5) is raised to its
highest point. Place the spool of thread on
the spool pin at the top of the machine; lead
the thread into the thread guide (1) at the left,
down, under and from right to left between
the tension discs (2), into the small wire
spring (3), under the thread regulator (4) at
the left (not through the eye in the thread reg-
ulator), up and from right to left through the
hole in the end of the thread take-up lever
(5), down into the eyelet (6), into the lower
wire guide (7), then from left to right through
the eye of the needle (8).
Draw about two inches of thread through the
eye of the needle with which to commence
sewing.
FIG. 11. THREADING THE NEEDLE
Instructions for threading the machine for
darning and for embroidery are given on
pages 34 and 35.

To Prepare for Sewing
With the left hand hold the end of the needle
thread, leaving it slack from the hand to the
needle.
Turn the balance wheel over toward you until
the needle moves down and up again to its
highest point, thus catching the bobbin
thread; draw up the needle thread and the
bobbin thread will come up with it through the
hole in the throat plate (see Fig. 12). Lay both
threads back under the presser foot.
To Commence Sewing
Place the material beneath the presser foot,
lower the presser foot and commence to sew,
turning the balance wheel over toward you.
To Remove the Work
Let the thread take-up lever rest at its highest
point, raise the presser foot and draw the fab-
ric back and to the left, pass the threads over
the thread cutter (A, Fig. 12) and pull down
lightly to sever them. Leave the ends of the
threads under the presser foot.
