Notes
Oil: only use thin sewing oil!! (so no wd40 or other stuff) The right type of oil is in the drawer.
- One or two drops of oil on all points. Frequency: every two weeks (Narya will do this)
- One or two drops in the housing of the spool. Frequency: every time you use the machine (should be done by the one who uses it)
- Oil container on the top needs to have sufficient oil (red label should be below the oil surface). Check the level every time you use it.
Flat side of the needle should be on the rear side

Tips
- First, put needle into the fabric by hand, only after that start sewing. Otherwise, you'll easily break needles or do other damage.
