CAUTION
Enviromental Requirements
Sewing
Be sure to wear protective goggles when using the machine. If goggles are not worn, there is the danger that if
a needle breaks, parts of the broken needle may enter your eyes and injury may result.
Use the sewing machine in an area free from
sources of strong electrical noise such as
high-electrical noise may cause problems with
correct operation.
Any fluctuations in the power supply voltage
should be within ± 10% of the rated voltage for
the machine. Voltage fluctuations which are
greater than this may cause problems with
correct operation.
The power supply capacity should be greater
than the requirements for the sewing machine’s
electrical consumption. Insufficient power supply
capacity may cause problems with correct
operation.
The pneumatic delivery capability should be
greater than the requirements for the sewing
machine’s total air consumption. Insufficient
pneumatic delivery capability may cause
problems with correct operation.
The ambient should be within the range of 5°C to
35°C during use. Temperatures which are lower or
higher than this may cause problems with correct
operation.
The relative humidity should be within the range
of 45% to 85% during use, and no dew formation
should occur in any devices. Excessively dry or
humid enviromentts and dew formation may cause
problems with correct operation.
Avoid exposure to direct sunlight during use.
Exposure to direct sunlight may cause problems
with correct operation.
In the event of an electrical storm, turn off the power
and disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet.
Lightning may cause problems with correct
operation.

complete. Otherwise the machine may operate if
the treadle is pressed by mistake, which could result
injury.
Be sure to connect the ground. If the ground
connection is not secure, you run the risk of receiving
a serious electric shock.
All cords should be secured at least 25 mm away
from any moving parts. Furthermore do not
excessively bend the cords or secure too firmly with
staples, otherwise shocks could occur.
Be sure to wear protective goggles and gloves when
handling the lubricating oil, so that no oil gets into
your eyes or onto your skin, otherwise inflammation
can result.

in safe use beforehand.
The sewing machine should not be used for any
applications other than sewing.
Turn off the power switch at the following. The motor
will keep turning even after the power is switched off
as a result of the motor’s inertia. Wait until the motor
stops fully before starting work.
- When threading the needle
- When replacing the needle and bobbin
- When not using the machine and when leaving the
machine unattended.
Turn off the power switch before carrying out
cleaning. The motor will keep turning even after
the power is switched off as a result of the motor’s
inertia. Wait until the motor stops fully before starting
work. The machine may operate if the treadle is
pressed by mistake
Attach all safety devices before using the sewing
machine. If the machine is used without these
devices attached, injury may result.
Do not touch any of the moving parts or press any
objects against the machine while sewing as this may
result in personal injury or damage of the machine.
In an error occurs in machine or if abnormal noises
or smells are noticed mmediatelly turn off the power
switch. Then contact your nearest sealer or
a qualified technicain.

diarrhoea. Keep the oil of hte reach of children.
Maintenance and inspection of machine should only
be carried out by a qualified technician.
Ask your dealer or a qualified electrician to carry any
maintenance and inspection o felectrical system.
Turn off the power switch and disconnect the power
cord from the wall outlet at the following times.
Otherwise the machine may operate if the threadle is
pressed by mistake. The motor will keep turning after
the power is switched off as a result of motor’s iner-
tia. Wait until motor stops fully before starting work.
When checking the rotary hook lubrication do not
touch moving parts such as the rotary hook, needle
and needle bar with your finger or paper. Otherwise
injury or damage of machine may result.
In any safety devices have been removed be absolu-
tely sure to re-install them to their original positions
and check if they operate correctly.
Any problems in machine operation which result from
unauthorized modifications to the machine will not be
covered by the warranty.
