DESCRIPTION

Embroidery machine makes the single thread chain stitch and can be

quickly adjusted to make the drop or moss stitch without unthreading the

machine. It is designed for ornamenting or embroidering curtains, upholstery,

dresses, scarf, gloves, table covers, lace, etc. The machine al so can make

linen and towels for hotels, etc., by stitching a name into the material.

The thread may be of cotton, wool, worsted, silk, metal and other threads

of similar adaptability. A large variety of fabrics can be embroidered, ranging

from fine chiffon to china silk and cloth.

The usual method of producing embroidered designs is to follow a pattern

that has been perforated, stamped or traced on the fabric, but with practice

the operator can produce embroidery designs without pre-making the fabric.

SPEED

When first operating this machine, the best result s can be obt ained by

running the machine at approximately 800 stitches per minute. T he speed

can be increased as the operator become more proficient and the nature of

the work permits.

TO OIL THE MACHINE

To insure easy running and prevent unnecessary wear of the parts which

are in movable contact, the machine requires oiling.

Oil should be applied to the plac es designated by unlettered arrows in

Figs. 1, 2, 9, and 10.

Fig. 2 shows the arm cover removed for the purpose of oiling. This arm

cover can be removed after taking out thumb screw W, Fig. 8.

If the machine is used continuously, oil should be applied at least once each

day.

NIPPLES, NIPPLES AND THREAD

Needles for embroidery machine are catalogue no. 5901 (137 x 1) and

are available in si zes from 1 to 12. These needles have hook similar in

appearance to those of hand crochet needles.

The needle must be selected accordi ng to the thickness and the style of

the thread to be used. The thread m ust not only fill the opening of the hook

in the needle but must slide freely therein.

To correspond with the needle used in the machine a suitable nipple must

be selected, as the needle in formin g the stitch has to operate through the

nipple. The needle must fit in the ni pple and slide freel y without side pl ay.

Nipples are available in size numbers similar to those of the needles, and

for general work the number of the nipple should be the same as that of the

needle.

TO REMOVE, REPLACE AND SET NEEDLE AND NIPPLE

When it is necessary to change the needle and nipple on the machine,

first select another n eedle and corresponding nipple. Then lower the

presser bar, loosen wing screw B, Fig. 3 and remove needle hol der A and

needle from top of machine. Unscrew nipple N, using the small wrench

provided.

Select the correct needle hole in needle plate D.

NOTE: The needle hole should be slightly larger than the needle, so that

the needle, when laid around the needle, will have sufficient space to pass

without touching the sides of the needle hole.

Loosen thumb screw L and turn plate D until correct needle hole is in line

with needle, then tighten thumb screw L.

Next, screw selected ni pple into th e lower end of nipple carrier O and

tighten securely with the small wrench. Screw selected needle into either

end of needle hol der A and tighten with pliers provided. Repl ace needle

holder A down into sleeve and adj ust its height so that the fabric to be

embroidered can just under the point of the needle.

Be sure handle K is as far to the front as possible and that the hook of the

needle faces the front. Then tighten wing screw B, wh ich also should face

the front.
