The correct lubricants for this machine are: TYPE A — MANUFACTURING MACHINE OIL, LIGHT GRADE TYPE C — MANUFACTURING MACHINE OIL, LIGHT GRADE TYPE Е — THREAD LUBRICANT TYPE F — MOTOR OIL

Use “TYPE A” or “TYPE C” OIL, sold by Singer Sewing Machine Company. See inside front cover of this book for description of these oils. Before starting the machine, remove the two oil gauges E, Fig. 3, and fill the oil reservoirs in the sewing hook saddles to the full mark on the gauges. Oil should be applied at points E and F, Fig. 3 and G, Fig. 4 and as indicated by “OIL” Fig. 24. Fill oil reservoir located on top of arm through oil filler hole G, Fig. 4, to high mark on oil sight F, Fig. 4.

First remove the bobbin case. Now, start the machine and hold a small piece of white paper near the hook for 15 seconds. Remove the paper and a small spray of oil should be visible. If no oil spray shows, check the oil level in the hook saddle reservoirs. Tip the machine back, away from the operator, and loosen the oil control valve set screw G3, Fig. 19. Return the machine to its upright position. Turn the oil control valve screw M, Fig. 5 to the right for more oil or to the left for less oil.
