handwheel toward you
(counterclockwise) so that the mark on
the wheel points up.

Make sure you insert the needle until it
touches the stopper, and securely tighten
the needle clamp screw with a
screwdriver, otherwise the needle may
break or the machine may be damaged.
Always turn off the machine before you
change the presser foot. If you leave the
power on and step on the controller, the
machine will start and you may be
injured.
Always use the correct presser foot for
the stitch pattern you have chosen. If
you use the wrong presser foot, the
needle may strike the presser foot and
bend or break, and may cause injury.
Only use presser feet that have been
designed to be used with this machine.
Using any other presser foot may cause
accident or injury.
