1 single hook
4
weights
1
screwdriver
1 instruction manual
1 bobbin winder 1

PREPARATIONS BEFORE KNITTING
After attaching the machine, the reel and
the bobbin winder securely to the table, and having placed all the accessories
close at hand, choose good yarn for your first try and proceed as follows.
The engraving on page 3 shows your machine seen from above.
The letters A, B, C, and D indicate the four sides of the machine. A is the back
of the machine or the part where it is attached to the table, facing side A, B
will be the left side, C the front and D the right side. Remember these four
points carefully; they will guide you from the beginning to the end.
STUDY CAREFULLY THE PARAGRAPH 1, page 3 before
beginning the work. Before threading the machine, one must fill the bobbins with
yarn using the reel and the bobbin winder, as shown above. Attach the yarn to
the bobbin with a half knot only, start filling it at the fat end and in the
form of a cone as shown on the table. The best bobbins are obtained by playing
out the yarn on a width of about 3 inches with the left hand; this movement,
which creates a crossing of the yarn, ought to be done rapidly.
