CAUTION/PRECAUCIÓN

●Be careful not to touch the needle, otherwise you may be injured.

●Use a screwdriver to tighten the presser foot holder screw securely. If the screw is loose, the needle may hit the presser foot and you may be injured.

●Before you start sewing, make sure you turn the handwheel toward you (counterclockwise) to check that the needle does not hit the presser foot.

●Tenga cuidado de no tocar la aguja pues, de lo contrario, podría resultar lesionado.

●Utilice un destornillador para apretar firmemente el tornillo del soporte del pie prensatela. Si el tornillo está suelto, la aguja podría golpear el pie prensatela y usted podría resultar lesionado.

●Antes de comenzar a coser, asegúrese de girar la rueda hacia usted (hacia la izquierda) para comprobar que la aguja no golpea el pie prensatela.

5Put the darning plate on the needle plate.

Connect the power supply plug to the wall outlet.

Coloque la placa de zurcir en la placa de la aguja. Conecte el enchufe a la toma de corriente de la pared.

• Before starting to sew, draw the quilting design on the fabric.

Antes de comenzar a coser, dibuje el diseño de acolchado en la tela.

7Use both hands to keep the fabric firmly stretched and move the fabric to sew over the drawn design.

Utilice las dos manos para mantener la tela bien estirada y muévala para coser sobre el diseño dibujado.

8The length of the stitch depends on how quickly you move the fabric and on the machine’s sewing speed. Sew while moving the fabric slowly.

La longitud de la puntada depende de la rapidez con que mueva la tela y de la velocidad de cosido de la máquina. Cosa mientras mueve la tela lentamente.
