• Motor ACAUTION
All cords which are connected to the motor
should be secured at least 25 mm away from
any moving parts. Furthermore, do not ex-
cessively bend the cords or secure them too
firmly with staples, otherwise there is the
danger that fire or electric shocks could oc-
cur.
A•Install the correct belt guard which corre-•• sponds to the motor being used.
<Motor>
• Select the correct motor from those listed in the table.
• Refer to the instruction manual for the motor for de-
tails on installing and using the motor.

4. INSTAllATION ACAUTION
,<;:\ • Do not connect the power cord until instal-\Y lation is complete, otherwise the machine
will operate if the treadle is pressed by mis-
take, which could result in injury.
•• Besure to connect the ground. Ifthe ground
connection is not secure, serious electric
shocks will result.
,<;:\. The sewing machine should only be in-\Y stalled by a qualified technician.
O.Ask your SEIKO dealer or a qualified elec-
trician for any electrical work that may need
to be done.
O.The sewing machine weights more than 29
kg. The installation should be carried out by
two or more people. O· Install the belt guard to the machine head.
4-1. Installing the rubber hinge and the corner rubber
1. Install the rubber hinge eon the table with nails

1. Insert the two bed hinge connections 0into the
holes in the machine bed.
2. Fit the bed hinge connection 0to the rubber hinge
• and then place the machine head onto the cor-
ner rubber e.
3. Tap the head rest0into the table hole.
NOTE: Tap the head rest securely into the table
hole. If the head rest is not pushed in as
far as it will go, the machine head will not
be sufficiently stable when it istilted back.

4. INSTAllATION
Insert the spool pin 0into the installation hole. and
screw it in tightly.

1. Assemble the knee lifter assembly 0as shown in
the illustration.
NOTE: Make sure that the knee lifter stopper.
is facing in the correct direction.
2. Install the knee lifter assembly 0on the back of
the table with 4screws e.(Refer to the work table
processing diagram on page 2.)
3. Adjust the knee lifter.
1) Lower the presser foot eby using the presser
bar lifter e.
2) Loosen bolts ••• and O.
3) Adjust the position of the thrusting bar com-
plete ., so that the clearance between its
curved section andthe very bottom of the roller
• is approximately 2 mm when the knee pad
CD is at the stop position.
4) Securely tighten bolts ••• and G.
5) Pressthe knee pad CD to raise the presser foot
eby 14 mm; then move the knee lifter stop-
per. in the direction of the arrow so that it is
against the installation bracket projection ••
securely tighten the bolt •.

2. Tilt backthe machine head, and then place the belt
• onto the motor pulley and the machine pulley.
3. Turn the nut. to adjust so that there is 15-20mm
of deflection in the belt. when it is pressed with
a finger with a force of 9.8 N (1 kgfJ.
4. Insert the belt guard upper cover. into the belt
guard. from above the pulley, and then tighten
it with the screw O.
1. Push down the bobbin set lever 0as far as it will
go.
2. Placethe bobbin winder pulley. so that it pushes
the belt" by approximately 5 mm, and then place
the bobbin winder 8so that it is parallel with the
belt hole in the work table.
3. Install the bobbin winder. to the work table with
the two screws e.
4. Pull the bobbin set lever 0back and check that
there is approximately 5 mm of clearance between
the bobbin winder pulley. and the belt •.

4. INSTALLATION
1. Tilt back the machine head, and then remove the
V-belt from the motor pulley.
2. While tilting the machine forward, insert belt guard
(L) 0into the belt guard. from underneath, and
let it rest there.
3. Place the V-belt back onto the pulley.
4. Install belt guard (L) 0with the two screws eso
that there is no clearance between the belt guard
f) and belt guard (L) 0 (position (6)), and so that
the reverse lever. and the belt guard f) are not
touching (positions ®and @).
Assemble the thread stand as shown in the illustra-
tion, and then install it to the work table.

4-10. Lubrication ACAUTION
1
Do not connect the power cord until lubrication has been completed, otherwise the machine may
operate if the treadle is pressed by mistake, which could result in injury.
Besure to wear protective goggles and gloves when handling the lubricating oil, so that no oil gets
into your eyes or onto your skin, otherwise inflammation can result.
Furthermore, do not drink the oil under any circumstances, as it can cause vomiting and diarrhoea.
Keep the oil out of the reach of children.
• The sewing machine should always be lubricated and the oil supply replenished before it is used for the
first time, and also after long periods of non-use.
• Use only the lubricating oil.
• Add 1-2 drops of oil in the places indicated by the arrows.
Add oil to other sliding parts also, while being careful to avoid oil/eaks .

decrease oil flow, tighten the screw e.After oiling adjustments completed, tighten the nut esecurely.
4-11.Checking the machine pulley rotating direction
IACAUTION
A • Do not touch any of the moving parts or place any objects against the machine while sewing, as~ this may result in personal injury or damage to the machine.
1. Insert the power cord plug into the wall outlet and
then turn on the power switch.
2. Depress the treadle and check that the direction
of rotation of the machine pulley matches the di-
rection of the arrow O.
If the direction of rotation is reversed, change the
direction of rotation to the correct direction while
