Operating Instructions:

The symbol "O" of a switch indicates the "off" position of a switch.

For an appliance with a polarized plug (one blade wider than the other):

To reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If it does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not modify the plug in any way.

The foot controller Model YC-482J or TJC-150 is used with the sewing machine Model 7318 (USA market only).

NOTE:

Before connecting to the power supply, make sure the voltage shown on the machine conforms to your electrical power.

WARNING:

While in operation, always keep your eyes on the sewing area, and do not touch any moving parts such as the thread take-up lever, handwheel or needle.

Always turn off the power switch and unplug from the power supply:

-when leaving the machine unattended.

-when attaching or removing parts.

-when cleaning the machine.

Do not place anything on the foot control, otherwise the machine will run intermittently.
