LUBRICATION
Use a lily-white oil. It doesn’t have to be the Juki brand.
The 1541 (unlike the 1181) does not have a bottom-feeding oil pan
with wick. The bottom pan in the 1541 is just a drip/catch all. The
machine is semi-self-oiling. You need to drop oil into a few places
around the machine regularly. Then there are a few other places (such
as the side plate and underneath hook chamber) that only need to be
oiled every 8-12 months depending on use.

You can use one hole or

four for greater tension
…or…
Here it is weave thru/around all 4 holes for greatest tension.

tension using the
second and third or
fourth hole
