1. General information
1.1 Safety instructions
For your special attention!
The mains voltage and the
nominal voltage specified on
the motor name plate must
be identical.
Any work on the electrical equipment
must only be performed by authorized
personnel and with pulled out mains plug.
Observe the safety instructions!
1.2 Machine operation without
material
Prior to operating the machine without
material the feet must be locked in their
lifted position. Also the smallest foot
stroke must be adjusted.
1.3 Table tops
The cutouts of self-manufactured table
tops must be dimensioned as specified in
the sketches on page 4 and 5.
The table tops must also have sufficient
carrying strength and rigidity.
1.4 Parts of the sewing unit
The sewing unit incorporates the
following components:
Thread stand 1
Machine head 2
Belt guard 3 and 7 for the machine head
and motor

Miscellaneous small parts in the ac-
cessories

2. Assembling the stand
Assemble the stand parts as shown in the
figure on page 2 and make sure that the
stand rests on all 4 points. To do this, turn
the screw at the machine stand (right-
rear) accordingly.
3. Completing and
screwing on the table
top
Screw the reinforcement strut 1 (page 5)
between the cutouts for the machine
head and motor belt.
To relieve the cables of strain, screw the
cable duct and holder to the table top
underside.
Screw on the main switch.
If necessary, attach the sewing lamp
transformer.
Lay the electrical cables as far as pos-
sible.
Screw on the drawer with its holder.
Screw on the knee switch to activate the
higher foot stroke.
Screw the table top on the stand using
the wood screws B8 x 35.
The positional relationship of table top
and stand is determined by the centres at
the table top underside.
Press the rubber pads for the hinges and
the front rubber pads into the recesses of
the table tops.
4. Connecting the sewing
machine motor to the
table top
4.1 General
Complete motor packages are available
for the machine, consisting of the sewing
machine motor, main switch with cables,
V-belt pulleys, V-ripped belt and other
parts.
The motor packages contain a second
smaller motor pulley for V-ripped belts
that can be used for sewing specifically
thick and closely woven material. With
this pulley up to 3000 spm (otherwise
4000) may be sewn.
The DC motors used on this sewing
machine are operated with a "single pha-
se AC voltage". In the case of several ma-
chines the terminals must be therefore di-
stributed evenly among the phases of the
three phase power supply. Otherwise
some phases might be overloaded.
If the electrical equipment is not supplied
by the factory, it must be manufactured
and checked according to the
EN 60204-3-1 or JEC 204-3-1.

4.2 Fastening the motor
Screw the base of the motor to the table
top. To do this, turn the 3 hexagon head
cap screws M8 x 35 with the washers into
the inserts of the table top.
Fasten the potential sheet 3 such that it
touches both, the motor base 1 and the
hinge 2. The potential sheet conducts
static charges of the machine head via
the motor to the earth.
Fasten the V-belt pulley to the motor
shaft.
Check the arrangement of the terminals
in the transformer of the sewing machine
motor, and if necessary, change. The
arrangement must be adapted to the
voltage supply.
5. Mounting the machine
head, positioning the
V-belt and fastening
the pedal
Mount the machine head in the table top.
Position the V-ripped belt.
Adjust the tension of the V-ripped belt.
To do this, change the position of the mo-
tor with respect to the sewing machine
such that the V-ripped belt can be
pressed inwards by approx. 10 mm
without great effort.
Screw on the belt guard, and thereby set
its belt retainer cam such that the belt
stays in the V-belt pulley when the
sewing machine is tilted backwards.
Screw the belt guard to the machine
head.
Mount the pedal and rods.
For ergonomic reasons, the pedal is to be
aligned laterally and centred with
respect to the needle.
Adjust the rods such that the released pe-
dal is sloped by approximately 10 °. 6

Fastening the hand-
wheel a. synchronizer
To screw on the handwheel 4 proceed as
follows:
Turn the arm shaft until the timing pin 2
that is slid through the hole 3 in the
housing can be inserted right into the
deepest slot of the disk on the arm shaft.
Screw on the handwheel such that its
mark "A" is level with the timing pin 2.
Screw on the synchronizer 5.
When the synchronizer must be screwed
on again after a repair, it is necessary to
redetermine its reference position (see
point 9). This is however no longer
necessary, when the following measures
are taken:
Insert the pin of the accessories into the
hole of the handwheel.
Bore an 8-mm-deep hole 6 into the
synchronizer 5.
Screw on the synchronizer such that the
pin of the handwheel is in its hole.
Fasten the thread stand.
Screw on the control panel.
7. Connecting the
maintenance unit
Screw the maintenance unit to the stand.
Connect the hose with the maintenance
unit and the machine head.
8. Laying and connecting
the electrical cables
Lay the cables.
Connect the cable plugs that are mostly
marked with symbols with the appropriate
bushings.
9. Filling in the oil and
readying the machine
for service
Pour the oil ESSO "SP NK 10" into the
two reservoirs 1 and 7 up to the mark
"MAX".
Pour the oil ESSO "SP NK 10" into the
mist lubricator of the maintenance unit up
to the "groove".
Connect the compressed air hose with
the maintenance unit and the com-
pressed air supply.
Set an operating pressure of 6 bar with
the pressure regulator.
Connect the mains plug with the mains.
Determine the reference position of the
synchronizer.
Proceed as described in the service
manual and the instruction manual of the
motor manufacturer, thereby referring the
reference position to the position D of the
handwheel.
After the reference position has been
determined, the signals "1st position" and
"2nd position" are correctly timed.
10. Making a sewing test
and checking the
supply of the mist
lubricator
With turned off machine, thread the
needle thread and install the bobbin (see
operation manual).
Make a sewing test with material.
To do this, operate the sewing machine
for some minutes at low speed before
sewing at maximum speed.
Check the supply (approx. 1 drop with 10
work cycles) of the mist lubricator and cor-
rect, if necessary.
