CAUTION/PRECAUCIÓN

Use a screwdriver to tighten the 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.

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

Utilice un destornillador para apretar firmemente el tornillo. 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.

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

Note/Nota

When sewing with the walking foot, sew at medium to low speeds.

Cuando cosa con el pie móvil, utilice una velocidad de cosido entre media y baja.
