When the machine is uncovered, the hand attachment will be found to be out of working position as shown in Fig. 6. Pull the small spring stud 2, and turn the handle back until leer 1, enters the socket 3. Press back the hinged finger 4, Fig. 7 between the spokes of the wheel. The machine is now ready for working as shown in Fig. 7.

NOTE. Before replacing the cover on the machine in its case, the lever should be disengaged and the handle placed in the position shown in Fig. 6.

To Operate the Hand Machine

Place a piece of material under the presser foot Q, Fig. 5, and lower the latter by means of the lifter R. Now turn the handle over from you to work the machine, without being threaded, until you are accustomed to guiding the material with the left hand.
