2. Sigurnosna uputstva
Uvijek se pridržavajte osnovnih sigurnosnih mjera opreza prilikom korištenja električnih uređaja kako biste smanjili rizik od požara, strujnog udara ili ozljeda osoba.
- Pročitajte sva uputstva prije korištenja šivaće mašine.
- Držite prste dalje od svih pokretnih dijelova. Potrebna je posebna pažnja oko igle šivaće mašine.
- Uvijek koristite odgovarajuću pločicu za iglu. Pogrešna ploča može uzrokovati lomljenje igle.
- Ne vucite niti gurajte tkaninu tokom šivenja. To može skrenuti iglu i uzrokovati njen lom.
- Switch the sewing machine off and unplug it from the electrical outlet when making any adjustments in the needle area, such as threading the needle, changing the needle, threading the bobbin, or changing the presser foot.
- Nikada nemojte ispuštati ili umetati bilo koji predmet u bilo koji otvor.
- Ne koristiti na otvorenom.
- Nemojte raditi tamo gdje se koriste proizvodi u obliku aerosola (sprej) ili gdje se daje kisik.
- Za isključivanje, okrenite sve kontrole u položaj "isključeno" ("O"), a zatim izvucite utikač iz utičnice.

- čišćenje: Regularly remove lint and dust from the bobbin area and feed dogs using the included brush. Accumulated lint can affect stitch quality and machine operation.

6. Otkrivanje problema
This section addresses common issues you might encounter with your SINGER HD500 Classic sewing machine. For more detailed troubleshooting, please refer to the comprehensive online manual.
| Problem | Mogući uzrok | Rješenje |
|---|---|---|
| Skipped Stitches | Nepravilno umetanje igle, savijena igla, pogrešan tip igle za tkaninu, nepravilno uvlačenje konca. | Re-insert needle correctly, replace bent needle, use appropriate needle, re-thread machine completely. |
| Thread Breaking | Nepravilno uvlačenje konca, prevelika napetost, konac loše kvalitete, savijena igla, neravnine na ploči igle. | Ponovo uvucite konac u mašinu, podesite napetost, koristite kvalitetan konac, zamijenite iglu i provjerite da li je ploča igle oštećena. |
| Bobbin Thread Looping/Tangled | Incorrect bobbin insertion, improper upper threading, lint in bobbin case. | Ensure bobbin is inserted correctly (thread unwinding in correct direction), re-thread upper thread, clean bobbin area. |
| Machine is Loud or Sounds "Cheaply Made" | Lack of lubrication, lint accumulation, loose parts, or normal operation sound for a heavy-duty machine. | Clean and lubricate machine as per manual. Ensure all parts are secure. Note that heavy-duty machines may produce more sound than lighter models due to their powerful motor and metal components. If stitching quality is affected (e.g., "raggedy stitch" as seen in some user videos), re-check threading and tension. |
