Does the machine come pre oiled, or do you need to oil it before you sew on it the very first time?

I know most are already oiled, but was not sure on the mid arms.

I had purchased a Singer years back that said oil before every use - got rid of that machine real fast.

I am getting the machine set up to sew on, just put on the 1/4 inch foot, different than the snap on feet that I am used to.

They come preoiled, but they love oil. It won't hurt it to give it a drop to two in each hole and on the hook to be sure.

Thanks, will do.
I love how quiet this machine is, it doesn't bounce either at higher speeds, which surprised me as my Euro really bounces on the high speed - has a speed control that this machine does not have.

It is an awesome machine, but I am afraid mine has a big problem. I am having a hard time getting used to using a slow machine again.
