4. Notes on safety
Like any other electrical device, a
sewing machine can cause serious,
even life-threatening injuries. To avoid
this, and in order to work safely:
• Always pull out the power plug
when you are not at the machine.
This will prevent the risk of accidents
if the machine is switched on acci-
dentally.
• Pull out the power plug before
replacing the bulb, or when carry-
ing out maintenance work on the
machine.
This will prevent possibly life-threat-
ening electric shocks.
• Only use the sewing machine in
dry rooms.
• If damage is visible on the sewing
machine, or the foot switch, or the
power cord: Have the damage
repaired by Customer Service, before
using the sewing machine again.
• Do not allow children or elderly
persons to handle the machine
unsupervised – these are not always
able to recognize potential dangers.
Keep electrically powered tools out
of the reach of children.
4. Notes on safety
Warning!
Possible injury and material damage:
As a user of electrical appliances,
you are legally required to prevent
possible accidents by taking the
appropriate safety measures:
•Keep your work space tidy. An
untidy workplace can lead to acci-
dents.
• Provide adequate lighting when
working!
•Do not wear loose clothing or jew-
ellery, as these can be caught in the
moving parts. For the same reason,
you should also wear a hair net if
you have long hair.
• Avoid adopting any unusual pos-
ture. Remain steady and in a well-
balanced position at all times.
•Be alert! Pay attention to what you
are doing. Always take a rational
approach to your work. Never work
with the sewing machine if you are
unable to concentrate or if you are
feeling unwell!
If accidents occur as a result of han-
dling the machine with insufficient care,
or failure to follow the safety instruc-
tions in this manual, then the manufac-
turer cannot accept liability.

5. Setting up
• Place the sewing machine on a
steady worktop.
Connect the foot switch to the
machine
Insert the power plug in a power
socket.
If the worktop is not completely even,
you can compensate for slight uneven-
ness as follows:
Pull out the box compartment to the
side, as shown.
The adjusting foot should now be
visible underneath. This can be
adjusted by turning in either direc-
tion, to ensure that the sewing
machine is steady.
The box compartment can now be sim-
ply pushed back – for example if you
need it as an 'extension flap' for sewing
larger areas of material.
However, you can also leave the
compartment box detached, for exam-
ple for free-arm sewing on sleeves,
trouser legs, etc.
6. Switching On / Off
You should familiarize yourself with
these methods of switching on and off,
so that you can take the correct action
in the event of an emergency:
The lamp can be turned on and off
by using the switch.
Pulling out the foot switch plug cuts
off power to the machine.
Pulling out the power plug from the
power socket cuts off power to both
the machine and the foot switch.

7. Threading
Warning!:
Before threading, make sure that the
sewing machine is switched off, or
that the power plug has been pulled
out of the power socket, as accidents
may be caused if the machine is started
unintentionally.
a) Threading the lower bobbin
To fill the lower bobbin with thread:
Pull out one of the two roll pins and
put on a spool of thread.
You can put a felt pad under the
spool of thread, to protect the
machine casing.
Place an empty bobbin on the
winder spindle and wind the loose
end of the thread on, giving several
turns anticlockwise.
Pull out the handwheel slightly, to
disengage the sewing mechanism
from the motor.
Pull the thread through the thread
guide for the winder tension.
After the first few turns of thread are
taut on the bobbin, press the bobbin
against the winder stopper.
• Now switch on the sewing machine
and step on the foot switch. When
the bobbin is full, cut the thread.
Press the winder spindle forward
again and take out the full bobbin.
Do not forget to press the handwheel
back in, otherwise the sewing mech-
anism remains disengaged from the
motor.

Wind about 10 cm of thread away
from the bobbin and feed this into
the bobbin case.
Pull the loose end of the thread
through the gap in the side of the
bobbin case
under the tension spring
until the thread passes out of the slit
in the bobbin case.

Place the bobbin case on the pin
Turn the bobbin case until the feed
dog engages in the recess.
• Place the excess thread so that it
does not catch anywhere
• Close the gripper flap.
The box compartment can now be
simply pushed back in, for example if
you need it as an 'extension flap' for
sewing larger areas of material.
However, you can also leave the box
detached, for example forfree-arm
sewing on sleeves, trouser legs, etc.

c) Threading the upper thread
To pass in the upper thread, it is not
necessary to open the front of the
sewing machine. The illustration is for
guidance only.
Pull out one of the two roll pins
and put on a spool of thread.
You can put a felt pad under the
spool of thread, to protect the machi-
ne casing.
Pass the thread through the upper
thread guide,
c) Threading the upper thread
then over the thumbwheel for the
upper thread tension,
then under the tension spring,
then over the threading hook,
then through the thread guide to the
needle, through the needle eye and
finally under the back of the sew
foot.
