PRECAUTION BEFORE STARTING OPERATION
1 Safety Precautions
1 . Whenturningthepoweron,keepyourhandsandngersawayfromtheareaaround/
undertheneedleandtheareaaroundthepulley.
2 . Thepowermustbeturnedo󱐯whenthemachineisnotused,orwhentheoperator
leaveshis/herseat.
3 . Thepowermustbeturnedo󱐯beforetiltingthemachinehead,installingorremoving
the“V”belt,adjustingthemachine,orreplacingparts.
4 . Avoidplacingngers,hairs,obstacles,etc.nearthepulley,“V”belt,bobbinwinder
wheel,ormotorwhenthemachineisinoperation.Injurycouldresult.
5 . Don’tputngersintothethreadtake-uplevercover,around/undertheneedle,or
pulleywhenthemachineisinoperation.
6 . Ifthebeltcover,thengerguard,and/ortheeyeguardareinstalled,don’toperate
themachinewithoutthesesafetydevices.
2 Precaution before Starting Operation
1 . Ifthemachine’soilpanhasanoilsump,neveroperatethemachinewithoutllingoil
init.
2 . Ifthemachineislubricatedbyadropoiler,neveroperatethemachinewithout
lubricating.
3 . Whenanewsewingmachineisoperated,verifytherotationaldirectionofthepulley
withthepoweron.
 (Thepulleyshouldrotatecounterclockwisewhenviewedfromthepulley.)
4 . Verifyvoltageand(singleorthree)phaseindicatedonthenameplateofthemotor.
3 Precaution for Operating Conditions
1 . Avoidusingthemachineatabnormallyhightemperature(35℃orhigher)orlow
temperature(5℃orlower).Otherwise,machinefailuremayresult.
2 . Avoidusingthemachineindustyconditions.
3 . Avoidusingthemachineinconditionslledwithalotofelectricnoisessuchashigh-
