Chapter 1: Installation and lubrication
1. Installation
a. Complete machine - with motor and table
For units, supplied complete with motor and table, use FIG 1.1+1.4
1. Mount the yarn-stand 25850/2P en screw it on the table.
2. Mount the yarn guide plate SET 25884 on the table.
3. Place the black rubber anti-vibration blocks(25840) in the aluminium holders .
4. Take the TITAN DK 2500 machine out of its box. TAKE CARE NOT TO LIFT UP
the machine by holding the UPPER PARTS. Instead, place your hands
underneath the closing plate of the machine, and lift the machine. Place the 3
little feet attached at the lower plate, precisely in the black rubber blocks.
5. Look underneath the table, and loosen the nut of the motor, with a flat key of 24.
This allows the motor to rotate upwards or downwards .
6. Push with one hand the motor upwards, and place the driving belt (attached to
the sewing machine) (M10012) around the pulley of the motor. Push the motor
down to stretch the belt slightly as seen in FIG 1.2.
FIG 1.2
7. Unscrew the cover marked “OIL” on the machine. Take the two oil bottles out of
the box and fill the machine with 1.5 L oil. Check if sufficient oil has been added
by looking at the oil-level glass. The oil level should be exactly between the two
red arrows. Close the cover again.
The electric motor is supplied, connected for use on 380V/3 PHASE supplies. For use
on 220V/3PH supplies, use the connection diagram (FIG 1.3). Connect the cores of
the mains to the receptacles of a plug designed for local operation (not included).
Verify that the direction of rotation is correct (FIG 1.1).
