CHAPTER II
In order to pass from a flat-bed machine to a free- arm one, unscrew button A" (Fig. 4), remove " the flat base and close the free arm by means of' carter B" (Fig. 5). :
a) Always keep a piece of cloth under the presser foot when the sewing machine is not in use. This will prevent damage to the feed dog and the presser foot. b) Do not push or pull the material to assist the feeding action; the material must advance by itself. 2 - To oil the machine a) Oil the machine in all oiling points indicated in Fig. 6 with a circle mark; b) It is advisable to oil the machine frequently; c) Use NECCHI oil, which is on sale at all NECCHI stores.

9 - To prepare the machine for sewing a) Turn the balance wheel through two complete cycles slowly and counter-clockwise; b) When the needle is in its highest position, pull the upper thread which will draw the lower thread up through the stitch hole in the needle plate; place the fabric under the needle and lower the presser foot;

c) Start the machine by gently turning the balance wheel, taking care to hold the two threads taut behind the presser foot for the first 3 or 4 stitches: this precaution will prevent the. thread from getting tangled under the needle plate, damaging the hook or breaking the needle. 10 - To adjust the tensions If the tensions are correctly adjusted (Fig. 11), the stitches will look alike on both sides of. the fabric since the two threads will interlock inside the material. Should the upper tension be too strong, the threads will interlock as shown in Fig. 12; the threads will look as in Fig. 13 when the lower tension iH too strong in relation to that of the upper thread. - The upper tension increases by turning button ((A (Fig. 6) upwards; it decreases by turning the button in the opposite direction; - The lower tension increases by tightening screw ((G (Fig. 10); it decreases by loosening the screw. The tension adjustment will be quite simple after a while. .

11 - To adjust the stitch length Turn button p (Fig. 9). , The numbers from 0 to 4 indicate the lengths of stitch. 12 - To sew in reverse Press down button ((R

13 - Thread cutter ; Pass the thread's through the opening A of the thread cutter (Fig. 14) which will cut them. ~.The threads will be held by the thread cutter and , the machine will thus be ready for the next sewing operation without the necessity of holding them , taut for the first few stitches by hand.
