                 + FOR USING THE..

WHITE *SEWING * MAGHINE

        THE BEST IN THE WORLD.

                         MANUFACTURED BY THE

       WHITE SEWING MAGHINE COMPANY,

          CLEVELAND, OHIO, U.S. A.




             1 Ta very large expense, we have had the White Sewing

                Machine explicitly illustrated, and within the following

                pages we submit these illustrations with such explana-
                tions as will enable anyone, with little or no experience, to
               readily understand, and satisfactorily work the machine.

 All we ask is that you will carefully read and follow these directions, and you

 can confidently rest assured that you will find yourself the possessor of the best

 Sewing Machine in the World.

     Before the machine leaves our factory, it has undergone a minute in-

 spection, and every mechanical defect corrected; it has been thoroughly

 tested as to its perfect sewing qualities, and found satisfactory in every
respect.
        It is a matter of fact, that any and all muchinery will become worn
sooner or later by constant use, and while the wear in the " WhiTe" will

 be imperceptible for many years, we have so constructed our machine,
that any "lost motion"' can be taken up in a few moments, and the parts

 kept in their proper position for an indefinite length of time.

     Operators are cautioned not to attempt to adjust the machine, unless
 its sewing qualities are impaired, and not then unless they are perfectly
 familiar with its principles and mechanism.
   Any unskilled person attempting to adjust or repair any machine
 will often do greater injury than years of ordinary wear could produce.

     TO THE JOBBER AND EXPORT TRADE.
     • - 030

            OR large jobbers or for the export trade, where orders are for one
           hundred or more machines at a time, we ship securely and

              compactly boxed, so that in transportation charges a large sav-
    3 ing is obtained. In this manner of shipping, as before stated, all
         the work is carefully inspected; the heads of the machines have each
   been tested in sewing, and are boxed by themselves, whilst the stands are
   taken apart and shipped in as small and compact shape as possible.
   Consequently, for the information of this class of trade, we submit and
   call attention to our first illustration- ThE STAND- and explanation as
  how to set it up properly.
       In the first place, remove the nuts 68-68 and cones 69-69 from the

   treadle rod 72 and slide the treadle 71 on the rod with a cone on each side
   of the treadle.
       In the second place, attach the stud 63 by screwing it securely to the
   right hand leg, then slide upon the stud the balance-wheel, and then screw
  the washer or collar on the stud, so it will hold the balance-wheel in posi-
   tion: THIS WASHER OR COLLAR SHOULD NOT BE "SET UP" TOO TIGHT, NOR
  TOO LOOSB, BUT SO AS TO PERMIT THE WHEEL TO REVOLVE TRUE AND WITH
 BUT LITTLE FRICTION. The balance-wheel has a slotted hub by which any

 lost motion or wear can be readily taken up, and thereby relieve it from irregular motion and unnecessary noise. Next, attach the pitman 65 to
 the balance-wheel, then the shield to the right hand leg at 64.
     Having thus put together these disconnected parts, it is an easy matter
  for a beginner to determine their relative positions by reference to the cut.
 60 represents the brace. The left hand and the right hand legs are con-
  nected to the brace by screws as shown in cut.
              55 represents a wooden pin in table for machine to rest on
  when turned back for oiling; this pin is taken out of the table and packed
 with the stand when it is shipped in boxes.
    To have the machine run extraordinarily light the greatest care must
 be exercised in setting up the stand work. Everything must be true and
 in line.
    Be sure that you have the wood work placed upon the stand so that
 the belt does not rub against it, and also so that it does not rub against
the balance-wheel of the machine.
       If the stand rests upon the floor in an uneven manner, and the floor is
 level, it is evident that the stand is not properly set up; in which case
 loosen the screws and nuts and place the stand in its proper position, and
 gradually tighten its connections.
   Place the Rubber Head Tacks in marked places in the front part of
 the table before you connect the machine head, by its hinges, to the table.
    To prevent noise, no part of the machine should touch the wood
work, but the machine head should rest entirely upon the Rubber Head
Tacks and Hinge Rubbers.

NO THE TREADLE MOVEMENT.   83



      WE CLAIM AN IMPORTANT IMPROVEMENT IN TREADLES, BY ALLOWING
 " ROOMY " SPACE FOR THE FEET SO THAT THE OPERATOR IS NOT " CRAMPED
 UP" BY THE USE OF BOTH FEET. Physicians will acknowledge the advan-

  tages of this improvement, and tell you that nearly all the diseases con

  tracted by seamstresses and working girls in the use of the sewing machine

  arises from the eramped position in which they have been compelled here.

 tofore to sit and place their feet upon so little space, and from the fact
  that the majority of sewing machines run too heavy.

     These objections are removed in the White Sewing Machine.

      The treadle movement should be thoroughly learned, so that the oper-

  ator can readily revolve the balance wheel by means of the treadle with
  either foot.
     Remove the belt from the balance wheel and place your feet on the
  treadle Jirectly over the treadle rod, then take hold of the balance wheel
  and turn it toward you, allowing the feet to move freely with the motion

  thus commenced, and continue this motion by an alternate pressure of the
  heel and toe until a regular and easy motion is obtained.
    Do not attempt to learn anything else until you are proficient in the
 use of the treadle, so that you can start it and stop it without ever turning
  it in the wrong direction.

        TO OPERATE THE MACHINE.

     Having become perfectly familiar with the treadle movement, now

 replace the belt and connect the fly wheel of the machine with the balance


overwheeltheof shuttlethe stand;andraisetake theout presserthe shuttle;foot withthen thestartlever,the removefly wheelthe ofslidesthe

machine towards you and continue the motion thus imparted, with the
 feet, as per instructions given above.

     After becoming expertly proficient in this motion and without the

 shuttle in or the machine threaded, place a piece of cloth between the feed
 and the presser foot; let the presser foot down upon it and operate the
machine in this way until you are accustomed to guiding the material in
 whatever direction you might desire.
    NoTE. Do not run the machine with the presser foot down on the feed
and no cloth between the two. -
    Do not pull the cloth to or from you in such a manner us to bend the
needle.
   Do not undertake to do practical sewing, but practice upon strips of
 cloth until you can produce a regular motion of the machine and guide
 the work as you wish.

            TO SET THE NEEDLE.
                     * and
      Raise the needle-bar to its highest point and pass the shank of the
  needle up into the hole in the needle-bar as far as you can push it, with
   the long groove of the needle turned precisely toward the left; then fasten
   securely with the needle screw.
     TO SEW EXTRAORDINARILY HEAVY GOODS, IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO
 LOWER THE NEEDLE A VERY LITTLE.
     The needle, when descending, should pass central in the needle-hole
  from front to rear, but a little nearer to the right than to the left of the hole,
  as it prevents the needle from glancing into the race and being caught by
 the shuttle; if properly set, the point of the shuttle should enter the
  largest part of the loop formed with the thread.


        Needles and Thread to be Used.

     The most important consideration is to buy and use perfect needles-
  not bent, nor blunt points. WE PARTICULARLY REQUEST OUR DEALERS AND
 THEIR CUSTOMERS TO BUY THEIR NEEDLES AND OIL FROM US.

     The size of the needle should conform to the size of the thread, and

  both be suitable to the material sewed. Use as fine a needle as will per-
  mit the thread to pass freely through the eye.

    A No. 1 needle may be used for all kinds of ordinary family sewing,
 where thread from numbers 50 to 80 is used; there is seldom a necessity
 of using a coarser cotton than No. 30, because every stitch made by a
 sewing machine is just double as strong as one made by hand. In gen-
   ral sewing use the same size of thread above and below.
    The following index will show the size of needle, thread and silk to be
 used.
          COTTON.           TWIST.         NEEDLE.
         150 to 300          000)
         90 to 150                    00
        70 to 90           005       0        50 to 70        A & B

          8 to 20              E&F
      For leather, use a twist pointed needle.

     SKIPPING STITCHES AND BREAKING THREAD is an unheard complaint
 when the genuine "WhITE" needle is used. The market is full of needles,
 of an inferior quality- made to sell cheap -and as an inducement for every
owner of a Wire to use it satisfactorily, (which can only be done by tho
 use of'a good needle) we will mail one dozen needles, with postage pre-
 paid, on receipt of 40 cents.

TO FILL THE BOBBIN WITH THREAD.
           NEVER UBE GLAZED THREAD ON THE BOBBIN.
    You have the great advantage of our Automatic Bobbin Winder, a
 feature that no other machine possesses.
      Figure 28 represents the Automatic Bobbin Winder, which is fastened
  firmly to the arm of the machine.
      Place the spool of thread on spool standard No. 1 and fasten the end
  of the thread between the end of the bobbin and the bobbin winder shaft,
 and put the other end of the bobbin in the bobbin winder; then turn the
  bobbin winder, adjusting screw until the bobbin winder pulley (rubber)
  shall come against the fly-wheel. Wind the thread a few turns around the
  bobbin; then pass the thread up and over the small pulley on the curved
 shaft at top of winder; then down and through the slot at the bottom
 of bobbin winder frame; steady the thread with the hand, and the bobbin
 will wind itself automatically as smooth as a spool of silk.
     Should the thread change direction at any time when filling the bob-
  bin, pay no attention to it, except to see that the curved shaft is free from
  dirt or thickened oil, and in the next layer it will regulate itself all
 right.
              THREAD.
      Do not use poor thread. You must not expect to make a nice, smooth
  stitch with cheap, uneven thread. Clark's or Willimantic six cord spool
 cotton is the best, and we will fill all orders for it promptly, by mail or
  express, on receipt of price, viz: 60 cents per dozen spools.
            Keep the Machine well Oiled.

      If the machine is dirty or gummed up with poor oil, clean it off by
 the use of spirits of turpentine or kerosene, then wipe dry and apply fine
sperm oil in the places indicated by the word oil in the illustration
page 4.
    Keep the insis working warts thoroughly oiled. In addition to the oil
 holes, the upper past of the machine should be carefully oiled on the
 needle-bar; also the bearings of the bobbin winder should be kept con-
 stantly oiled. To oil the under side, slip the belt off the balance-wheel
 and turn the machine back on its hinges, and oil all the places indiented
 by the numbers 19, 20, 22, 44, and on lower arbor bearings.
   Use only the best quality of sperm oil, and whenever you oil the
 machine, work it a little to distribute the oil, and then, after standing a
 few moments, take a soft cloth and clean the superfluous oil from the
 japanned parts of the machine, also from the needle-bar. The shuttle
race is provided with a cup filled with waste. Keep this waste slightly
 moistened with oil, which will keep the shuttle and its race lubricated all
that is necessary.
              The Iron Stand.
     Oil should be distributed frequently upon the treadle-rod cones at 69
 and upon the balance-wheel wheel stud at 63; and upon the pitman con-
nections at 62-67.

             TO THREAD THE MACHINE





                          Place the spool of threr 1 on the spool standard

                       No. 2, pass the thres through the thread guide

                   No. 7; thence under the check spring No. 8, and

                     bottom of face-plate; thence through slot in end
                       of needle-bar to the eye of the needle from left

                        to right, drawing two or three inches of thread
                     through.
           THE TENSION.
    The tension on the upper thread is controlled by the tension nut No.
 73, shown on face of machine; by turning it to the right tightens the ten-
sion on upper thread, by turning it to the left loosens it. If a tight ten-
 sion is desired, both upper and under threads must necessarily be tight.
 If the upper thread is tight and the lower thread loose, the upper thread
will be drawn to the top, thus,                        If the lower thread is too

 tight, it will be drawn straight on the bottom of goods, thus,

 In sewing all cotton and fine linen goods, avoid a tight tension as much
 as possible, to prevent fullness after having been washed.When you
 desire the goods to look alike on both sides and be elastic, balance the

tensions, thus

         TO THREAD THE SHUTTLE.

                                The Shuttle of the White Sewing Ma-
                          chine is acknowledged to be the least
                              complicated of any in the market.
                                  Having raised latch 1 and holding the
                            bobbin so the thrend will draw off from      Fig18.
                               the under side, place one end of bobbin
                                    into the center of the heel of shuttle and
                              drop the other end of bobbin into the slot-
                            ted hole in point of the shuttle; then
                                 pass the thread through slot 6; thence in
                               through slot 5; thence out through slot 4;
                             then press latch 1 down into position and
                                 the shuttle is threaded ready for use.      4 5 6
     In all cases the thread must pass out under latch 11
     Figure 8 is the shuttle tension screw.To obtain a tight tension on
shuttle thread turn this screw to the right; for a light tension turn screw
 to the left.
   We claim a decided advantage over many other machines in the con-
 trol of our shuttle tension, as it is so arranged we can increase or decrease
 it without removing the shuttle from the machine or disarranging the
work.
      To open the latch, press slightly against it and open.

            To Remove the Shuttle.
    Open the front shuttle slide to take the shuttle from the machine. Do
not undertake to turn the machine back for oiling with the rear shuttle
 slide partly pulled out.

          To Change the Length of Stitch

     No. 12 represents the StriCE REgULATOR, which will be appreciated
 at sight, as the most simple and complete device of the kind ever placed
 upon a sewing machine.
    The Regulator is located at the right end of machine in front of arm.
The oval dial is marked with a scale running from 0 to 4, representing the
 limits of the stitch; No. O being the shortest, and No. 4 the longest.
    To regulate the length of stitch, turn thumb-screw a very little to the
left to loosen, and move pointer at left of thumb-screw to place desired,
then tighten again.By this means the same length of stitch can always be
 duplicated, thus obviating the necessity of experimental trials, as is the
 case with other machines.
    'The length of stitch should be governed by the size of the thread; the
coarser the thread the longer the stitch.
           THE VIBRATOR.
     No. 27 represents the ViBRatoR, which is in the face of machine and
         is regulated by thumb-screw in front of face plate.
      To put Vibrator in gear, loosen thumb-serew and drop it to its lowest
 point and tighten screw again.
     If full vibration of presser is desired, let the point of needle down to

  goods and put "vibrator in gear," as above directed.
     If only a partial vibration of presser is desired, let point of needle
 down through goods and put "vibrator in gear," as above directed!

To Commence Work.

      In threading the needle and shuttle respectively, you should leave an
 end of thread of about two inches in length to each. Hold the end of the
 upper thread loosely in the left hand, and with the right hand gently
 revolve the fly-wheel until the needle passes to its lowest point and returns,
 when, if it is set properly. a loop will be formed through which the shuttle
  will pass, and, as the needle ascends, it will draw up the lower or shuttle
  thread. Now see that the shutt'e slides are both closed over the shuttle,
 and the machine is ready for practical operation.
              To Remove tha Work.

     Stop the machine with the needle at its highest point; raise the pres-
 ser-foot: slacken the upper thread by drawing about three inches from the
top spool, then take hold of your work and pull it directly from you, keep-
 ing the top thread in the slot of the pressure-foot,which will prevent bend-
 ing the needle. Cut the threads elese to the cloth, which will leave the ends
  projecting from needle and shuttle preparatory to commencing work again.
      EXPLANATION OF DIFFICULTIES
      That Sometimes Ocour with Boginners.

     If the upper thread breaks, it may be caused by the needle not being
 properly set, or the michine not threaded correctly, or the upper tension
 too tight, or the thread uneven and the needle too small for it, or the
  needle eye too sharp, or the presser-foot attached to the machine so that
  the needle rubs it in passing.
      If the under thread breaks, it may be caused by the shuttle being im-
 properly thrended. or too much tension upon it, or by the bobbin being
 wound too full so that the thread slips over the ends of the bobbin in the
  shuttle, or by the thread being caught in the shuttle slides.
       If the needle breaks, it is more than likely your own fault, caused by
 pulling the goods to or from you in such a manner that the needle strikes
 the throat-plate and is bound to break. The needle may, however, break
 in trying to sew extraordinary heavy seams when the pressure on the
  presser-foot is not heavy enough.
     To create more pressure upon the goods turn the pressure-bar nut 5
 to the right; to decrense the pressure turn it to the left.
         If the machine slips stitches, the needle is either bent or the long
 groove is not exactly to the left.
         If the stitches are not eren, it may be caused by the presser-foot not
  resting evenly upon the fabric sewed, or by the feed not being high enough,
 or by the stitch being too short. or by pulling the cloth, or by using too
  fine a needle with too coarse or uneven thread.
                   NOTICE.
    The leather band should always be tight enough not to slip. If it
 slips, or does not force the needle through thick goods, eut off a very short
 piece and readjust the ends. 'The belt should not be so tight as to prevent
 an easy motion of the machine.
       FREE WITH EACH MACHINE.

*OUR NO. 124


   - TAILORING I MAGHINE.%.





     On the preceding page we give an illustration of the No. 12 White

or Tailoring Machine, which is designed to meet the wants of purchasers

 who desire a larger machine than the Family White. In mechanical

construction and finish, it embodies the same principles that have given

 the White Family Machine its wide-spread popularity. It is the acme of

 perfection, combining in its make-up the elements of a model tailoring and

 perfect family machine- -the attachments for the one being alike appli-
cable for the other; and the favor with which it is received by the tailoring
 trade, the manufacturers of all kinds of fabrics, and by that class of
 people who are compelled by circumstances to make work-shops of their
 homes, surpasses our fondest expectations. Its light-running and noiseless
 qualities are keenly appreciated, and the demand for our No. 12 or Tailor.

ing Machine is constantly increasing. The instructions for threading the

Family White will apply to our Tailoring Machine.

      HEMMING AND SEWING ON LACE_ONE OFERATION.

      Our hemmer and feller, which accompanies each machine, is now
 made with a slot- 6. (See Figs. 14 and 15.) In this slot place the edge
  of the lace and sew it on at the same time as in ordinary hemming.

 HEMMING,HEADSEWINGOF ONTHELACEHEMANDALL INSERTINGIN ONE OPERATION.BIAS TRIMMING AT
     Cut a narrow piece of bias trimming out of colored goods ( see 4 in
  Fig. 14.) Pass the bias trimming into the tube near the mouth of the

  hemmer; then place the edge of the lace in slot 6; then place the fabric
  to be hemmed into the mouth of the hemmer as for ordinary hemming,

 and then proceed to sew, keeping the edge of the fabric turned as it feeds

  through, and at the same time holding the lace in its proper position.

  will require a little patience and experience for an operator to become pro-

  ficient in this work, but as it makes a most desirable style of trimming,
 we have no doubt it will come into general use by owners of the WHite
machines.
                   WIDE HEMMING.
     Any width hem can be made with the hemmer and feller upon thin
 fabrics by simply folding the goods the desired width of hem, and then
 passing the edge through as in narrow hemming.

  DIRECTIONS FOR USING THE ATTACHMENTS.


                        QUILTING.

        Pass the quilter through hole 2 in presser bar. adjust the quilter guide

   to the right of the needle according to the desired space between seams,
   and high enough to allow the goods to pass freely under it, and then fasten
   the quilter securely by serew 3.

       In STARtINg to quilt use the outer edge of the cloth for the first guide,
  or else crease the cloth on the right and let the quilter guide 1 follow the
  crease; quilt the remainder by keeping the guide in a line and over the

  seam last stitched.


      NoTICE. -Large quilts should be made in squares or sections and
  then sewed together. In quilting squares or diamonds the seams should

  be on an equal bias.

                     BRAIDING.
    Remove the presser foot and attach the braider to the presser bar;
 then attach the vIBRaToR 4 to the face plate by using the guage screw 3, so
  that the slot end of the the lever will work on the screw 5 and the other
 end of the same lever will work under the needle screw 6.

     The vIBratoR must be attached at such a height that every downward
 movement of the needle will cause the braider foot to raise just enough to allow
 the goods to pass freely under it.

    The pattern to be braided should first be stamped or drawn on writing
 paper, them basted to the cloth. To put the braid into the braider, first
 raise the foot, them pass the end of the braid down through the hole 2 in
 the front of the foot and draw it under the foot and back of the needle;
 then place the stamped pattern under the foot and proceed to sew, guiding
 the cloth with the right hand and holding the braid with the left hand to
keep it from twisting.

   By the assistance of the vibrator a novice can do better braiding, and
more of it, on the White, than an expert can do on any other machine without

such an -altachment.

   DIRECTIONS FOR USING THE ATTACHMENTS.


                        CORDING.

       Remove the presser foot and attach the conder to the presser bar so
    that the needle will pass through the centre of the needle hole. Pass the

    cord through hole 2 into the tube of the corder, which is slotted so that

   ments; fasten the ATTACHMENT HOLDER 1 to the face plate-by the gauge.

   screw 7, and then place the welt corder 4 in the holder by sliding it behind
  the clamp 3 and securing it firmly with screw 2; then take ordinary dress
 cord and pass the end of it through the hole 10 in cORDER cARRIER and
  back through the folder; then eut a narrow piece of bias trimming, as
  represented by 8, and pass it into the folder so as to surround and cover
  the corder; then take the two pieces of cloth between which the welt cord
  is to be stitched, as shown in eut by 9 and 12, allowing the piece 9 to pass
  under the attachment and to be next to the feed of the machine, whilst
  the piece 12 must pass over the welt corder and be next to and under the
  presser foot; lower the presser foot and then proceed to sew, guiding the
  edges of 9 and 12 pieces together, and the result will be as shown at 13.
 By using the pieces 8, 9 and 12 out of different colors, it makes a very
 handsome piece of trimming.

                      SHIRRING.
     Shirring is another new popular style of trimming, and can be done
 successfully with the White machine by using the same presser foot that
is used with. the welt corder, as follows: see eut fig. 19, and turn tension
 nut 6 to the right, making the tension on the upper thread as tight as it
will sew without breaking; then make the stitch a little longer than in
 ordinsey sewing, and pass the goods to be shirred under the presser foot
 and prrceed to sew.

DIRECTIONS FOR USING THE ATTACHMENTS.


                      TUCKING.


      Attach the tucker to the machine by means of the gauge screw. Set

  the guide 2 (see fig. 8) as far from the needle as you want the tuck in width,

 and then fasten the tucker firmly to the machine by turning gauge screw
 to the right: then loosen little, screw or nut 1 (see fig. 8) and move the

 creaser 6 exactly twice as far from the needle to the left as the guide 2 is to
 the right; then fasten little screw 1.

     This adjustment will make tucks without any space between them.

       If space between tucks is desired, move the creaser 6 as much further
from the needle to the left as the space desired.

     Connect the tucker-arm or wire 3 to the needle by the hook 4.

   To COMMENcE TUckING: Fold the cloth for the first tuck and place
 it under the creaser bar and presser foot with the folded edge against the
 guide 2, lower the presser foot and sew as usual, keeping the edge of the
 goods close ngainst the guide 2.

   The creaser 6 marks the cloth as it passes over the creasing blade;
 after the first tuck is completed, fold the cloth by the mark made by the
 creaser and place again as before. Continue this operation until the gar-

 ment has the required number of tucks.
