2-2. Installation of the sewing machine
25 mm
19 mm
1) To prevent possible accidents caused by the full
of the sewing machine, perform the work by two
persons or more when the machine is moved.
2) Place the sewing machine on a horizontal and
plane place when placing it and do not place
any protruding thing such as a screwdriver or
the like.
Never hold the handwheel since it rotates.
3) Attaching the hinge seats and the support rub-
bers of the machine head
Fix accessory hinge seat supplied with the
unit on the table with wood screw while put-
ting seat plate under the hinge seat as shown
in the gure on the left.
Fix machine head support rubbers and on
the table with nails while putting sheets A(stan-
dard: 3 pieces) and sheet B(standard: 1 piece)
under the machine head support rubbers.
Use nail for sheet Band nail for sheets A.
There are two different machine head support
rubbers ; i.e., the rubber for the right and that
for the left. Be sure to check the types of the
support rubbers before xing them.
Sheet A (eight pieces) and sheet B (four
pieces) are supplied with the machine as
accessories.
For the sheet A, three sheets are to be used
as standard for each mounting position. For
the sheet B, one sheet is to be used as stan-
dard. (The state shown in the left gure)
The sheets A and B are used for adjusting
the height of the top surface of the bed. Use
one more sheet to increase the height, or
use only one sheet to decrease it.
Sheet A Sheet B
Be sure to use a short nail for sheet B. If
long nail is used, the nail tip can pene-
trate the table giving rise to a risk of injury.

6) Install hinge on the bed with screw . En-
gage the hinge with the rubber hinge of the
table. Then, place the machine head on the
machine head support rubber.
5) Attach a lter to the oil pan as shown in
the gure.
Install lter so that its multi-layered part is
brought to the right side as observed from you.

8) Put reux pipe in the oil reservoir of oil
pan . Secure the pipe in groove .
9) Fix lter and lter clamp with tting .
7) Securely attach head support rod until its rib
is closely pressed against the table.
When it is really necessary to conduct work
with the machine head supporting rod re-
moved for the purpose of maintenance and
repair, it is necessary to carry out the work
with two or more persons.
In the case the machine head is tilted more
than necessary, oil can leak from the oil in-
let of the oil tank. It is, therefore, necessary
to remove oil from the oil tank before tilting
the machine head.
Install oil shield , supplied with the unit, on the
frame with screws .
WARNING :
To protect against possible personal injury due to abrupt start of the machine, be sure to start the
following work after turning the power off and ascertaining that the motor is at rest.
2-3. Installing the oil shield
Secure the reux pipe as illustrated in the
gure.

WARNING :
To protect against possible personal injury due to abrupt start of the machine, be sure to start the
following work after turning the power off and ascertaining that the motor is at rest.
2-4. Pneumatic components (Only for the models provided with the stitch skipping
detecting device and bobbin-thread remaining amount detecting device)
(1) Installing the regulator
1) Install regulator (asm.) on mounting plate
with screw , spring washer and nut
which are supplied with the unit.
2) Attach joint to inlet 1. Attach joint to out-
let 2.

the table with accessory screws supplied with
the plate.
4) Connect branch Y union to joint .
* Screw which is supplied with the unit:
Thread diameter M5; Length: 12 mm
(SM6051202TP)
* Branch Y union (PJ308060004) which comes
with the air blower solenoid valve asm._SD
should be used.
(2) Adjusting the air pressure
1) The operating air pressure is 0.5 to 0.55 MPa.
Adjust the air pressure using air pressure regu-
lating knob of the lter regulator.
2) In the case uid accumulation is observed in
section of the lter regulator, turn drain cock
to drain the uid.
