How to use

Place the machine on a stable, level surface and connect it to a suitable power outlet. Wind and insert the bobbin following the user manual, then thread the upper thread using the automatic needle threader according to the diagram in the manual. Choose the desired stitch pattern and adjust stitch length and width if the machine provides those settings. Position the fabric under the presser foot, lower the presser foot and begin sewing using the foot pedal or start/stop control. After sewing, lift the presser foot, trim loose threads and remove the workpiece. Regularly clean the bobbin area and change needles according to the fabric type to maintain stitch quality.

Recommendations

Use the correct needle type and size for the fabric to ensure even stitches and avoid skipped stitches. Test stitch patterns and tension on a scrap piece before sewing final seams. Perform routine cleaning of the bobbin case and feed area and replace needles periodically to maintain reliable operation and prolong the service life of the machine.
