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 reux 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.
