How to Use

- Apply 1–2 drops of oil to each recommended point — a little goes a long way.
- Run the machine at low speed for a few seconds to distribute the oil evenly.
- Wipe away any excess oil with a clean cloth before sewing on fabric.
For best results, lubricate your machine every 8–10 hours of use, or whenever you notice the mechanism running stiffly.
